    3.35 mi / 00:32 09:25 pace

    Time/distance are from my memory b/c I haven't uploaded the data from my Garmin. I am cutting way back on running, since I finished my marathon and will be starting P90X in a week, but I don't want to lose my fitness. I have been in serious training ... read more

    This was my 1st run post marathon. It's funny, b/c the first 1/2 mile of the run was just brutal. The weather was great, but my left knee was achy and cranky. As I got out of my neighborhood (about .5 miles in), my left calf started cramping. I was... read more

    I felt great most of the race. My feet - which is what I was really worried about - held up the whole way. I made a game day decision to run in my Brooks - which I retired about 3 pair of shoes ago, because the Brooks have a larger toe box than my As... read more

    I think taper madness is getting to me. I hope that's what it is. My left leg did not feel as tight as it has the last couple days, thanks to a lot of strectching and some Motrin on Monday night, but my left foot was KILLING me and my left knee/leg w... read more

    I had to do my last long run on the TM b/c my husband played golf and left me with the kids. My left leg felt tight and my left knee was cranky. It was hot and humid in the gym - which, although miserable, I thought might be good in case (please NO) ... read more

      @Wayne, New Orleans will be my 2nd marathon. Chicago, in October of last year, was my 1st. Thanks for the support guys!

    Short run. Was supposed to be 5, but I woke up late. I was considering not running at all, as I felt a bit congested in my head and chest. Sure enough, I felt a lot better after my run!

    Finally, an outdoor run, LOL. Perfect negative splits (not too hard to do when the 1st half is all uphill and the 2nd half is downhill). Anxiety is revving high today though (taper madness, maybe?), so on the 1st half of the run, I was fighting thoug... read more

    Another TM run. I'm being a cold weather wuss - temps in the high 20s chased me indoors. Think I'll do my 6 outside. I figure, I'm in taper mode, it's ok to wuss-out a little bit now! :)

    I was a bit sore at the beginning of this TM run, but loosened up after a mile or so. I just need to keep it nice and loose for the next 12 days!!
