Last trail marking session! It's been fun, but I'm looking forward to getting back to my own training next week
- Miles:
- 2834 total / 577 in 2013
- Goal:
2013 Goals: Finish my first marathon and first trail half marathon. Run a sub 1:55 half and set a new 10k PR. But most importantly, keep running until I'm 80.

good Piedmont Hills 4 mi 00:42 10:23 pace
Fell off the bandwagon with logging my runs (and ran less miles) for an entire week! My foot has still been mildly bugging me and I've had a crazy schedule, so I was happy just to squeeze in ... read more

I was just wondering what happened to you - I was a bit worried! Sorry to hear about your foot. Is this still from when you first ran in the Altras?

Lafayette Moraga Trail 10 mi 01:41 10:04 pace
First double digit for my runners, many of which had never run this far! Ran the first 5 miles with a 11-12 min runner, and the second 5 miles with a 8:30-9 min runner. Felt great!

Top of my right foot is unhappy with me, so I decided to play it safe - more so than usual because I HAVE to be there for my runners in the final weeks of race training. So, I got creative with ma... read more

Easy 5 mi 00:50 09:57 pace
Marking the path for the cruise interval workout I'm coaching tonight. Took it easy because my calves and feet were are suprisingly sore after yesterday's run in zero drop shoes
-
Have you run in zero drops before? They will really work your calves and feet. Make sure to take it easy, stretch your achilles, and massage your feet with a tennis or lacrosse ball. (I was actually surprised that you mentioned knee symptoms yesterday and not calf. It might have been secondary?)
-
I have, but only here & there - this is the first zero drop I've actually liked. I've been running in mostly 4mm drop shoes for 1.5 years though, so the transition should be a little less brutal. I think the knee twinge was just my body getting used to less cushioning, but I'll be sure to be proactive, take it easy, and transition gradually. :)

good Lake Merritt 3.13 mi 00:28 09:01 pace
A quick lake loop to check out my new Altra zero drop shoes. They felt responsive and light and my blistered toes appreciated all the room in the toe box, but my knees were a bit achy after. Might ... read more

great Piedmont Track + Bay Trail 7.03 mi 01:06 09:22 pace
Last morning of waking at 5am to coach the Kaia ladies at the track- bittersweet! I ran a mile warm-up followed by a 7:11 min/mile with one of my runners, then 5 easy late morning miles on the Bay ... read more

Ha! So you found your secret power potion but its a little too pricey...hmm. I guess you can try to break it down and see what is working. I think it's Milk/Soy, Sugar and Caffeine. In the past I've noticed that I get a bigger boost, to the point of jitters/tweakiness from black tea caffeine vs coffee. Maybe its the black tea extract. Looks like a great morning run!

Briones Trail Run 7.11 mi 01:24 11:48 pace
Great to run with friends, but surprisingly uncomfortable to run with a sprained wrist. Can't even imagine how some of you run on sprained ankles.
