I'm loving this fall weather!! Legs felt recovered yesterday from Sunday's long run but once I started out I could tell they were still a bit tired. I felt like I was going SLOW and was definitely working harder but after looking at my pace I was doing what I normally do for this mileage. So, all in all, good run. |

This run was actually a Parents VS Kids soccer game and let me tell ya - some of these kids were fast! And who knew the field was so stinkin' big?? Anyway, not sure on the mileage but I did A LOT of back and forth running. I'm counting this as a speed workout since I had to break it into high gear the length of the field at least 20 times....that doesn't include all of the just loping along I did. Definitely sore today so it was a good workout! :-) Oh, the kids won....but I did score a couple of times on my goalie son! |

| | I am so very undertrained for my half marathon next Saturday. This run was much harder than it should have been - maybe a little because I ran it in the evening? I normally do longer runs on a weekend morning....either way, I'm definitely undertrained. I could whine about family demands on my time but the truth is I'm just unwilling to get up at 3am to get in a run so I must get them in around soccer practice, tutor sessions, grocery shopping, etc. That's life and since I'm not going to make any money at this it has to come second. However, it's lovely knowing, that while I'm busy driving kids to appointments and running errands, that I'll have an hour or so to myself in the evening. Just me and the neighborhood - at peace. :-) Cheers to an upcoming painful half-marathon! | |

I'm in my second year of running and this year I have discovered that I LOVE running in the elements. Last nights run in the rain was fun - I'm not sure why but the sense of freedom I had was amazing. Not caring about being drenched or clothes being ruined and the sense of feeling like a tough chick made me want to head right back out again when I was done. Another plus side was that my legs were cold so I couldn't even feel that they were tired. YEAH FOR COOL RAIN RUNS! | |

Monster Dash 1/2 Marathon (13.1 Miles) 02:09:10, Place overall: 3617, Place in age division: 389 | | This was my second 1/2 marathon and it was AWESOME! So much better than my first - I didn't go to fast in the beginning, I stayed with the pace group and kept it even. I didn't have a goal time as I just wanted to finish feeling better than I did at my first attempt. Now to work on speed....but what an awesome race - I'm completely jazzed for the next one! |
