- 112 total / 0 in 2012

Full marathon in October (Location undecided)

great 10.24 mi 02:12 12:55 pace
I ran all of this! Felt great from mile 1-8.5. Talked on the phone (via headphones & armband) to two friends during most of my run. It rained about 60% of the time. Miles 8.5-10.24 were an u... read more

blah 8.65 mi 01:57 13:30 pace
I walked about 15% of this... Trying to shock my body back into training after so much time off. Felt weak. The more I walked, the more I didn't want to run anymore...

Wanted to run 9 this day, but the angry storm gods were chasing me.

Outrun the Sun -- charity race in Indianapolis. This was my first race and I loved it! I'm surprised I kept a 10:21 pace for 5 miles. I guess I do have a little competitiveness in me. ;)

I felt very fast during this post-sunset run, but the stopwatch still said I ran 11 minute miles. The air was cold and crisp; I felt good.

That was one of the hardest things I've ever done. "Thirsty" doesn't come close to describing how much I wanted water. I kept having fantasies that some stranger would appear around the c... read more

great 3 mi 00:31 10:18 pace
I loved this run. I really focused on keeping a long stride and not letting my speed dip. This time is my 2nd best so far.

RUN
good 6.38 mi 01:14 11:35 pace
Ran the 6 (point-three-eight) mile loop around the country roads. Slowest time yet. That's nothing to celebrate. I'm having trouble caring how fast I run, though.

RUN
great 7 mi 01:19 11:14 pace
I had a lot to think about on those 7 miles. Had a great time out there. Feeling more and more confident that I will be able to conquer this training.

RUN
good 4 mi 00:43 10:39 pace
Ran without music so that I could really focus on the speed. Because of this, my speed improved approx. 30 seconds per mile, but I'm still not where I want to be!

good 5 mi 00:56 11:07 pace
Late run with the mosquitoes. Felt slow-- surprise, surprise. Having trouble increasing the speed. I get worn out quickly. Overall, though, it was fine.

RUN
good 3.8 mi 00:42 11:03 pace
Silent run; accidentally ran further than I was supposed to. Also, no recorded time on this one. Felt slow but okay.

6 MILES AND NO SIDE STITCHES OR PAIN OF ANY OTHER SORT?! I'd say it went pretty well!

RUN
good 4 mi 00:42 10:30 pace
Aside from the crazy wind blowing against me 3/4 of the way, I had a great run. Side pain was kept to a minimum and no knee pain at all. My speed definitely improved! Tomorrow is a 6-mile day. Am I... read more

Ran in the calm before the storm. With each bolt of lightening I saw in the distance, I got a little faster. ;) Felt better and faster than Tuesday, but my time was still pretty slow. PS When are t... read more

Not fun at all. Slow, side stitches, and knee pain. Can I have a do-over?
