    alright 1.5 miles. 1.5 mi 00:20 13:20 pace

    I just feel like garbage lately. And then I re-cap what I'm eating... oh man. Back at it this week, I need my energy back!! Leaving for Vegas next week - not sure how that's going to pan ... read more

      How exciting! A trip to Vegas! I am sure you will be doing a lot of walking around so that will be some of your exercise. Another thing you could look into is if the hotel your staying at has a gym. If so, you could run on the treadmill/elliptical. If your going to be there a week, maybe schedule two or three times to do 2 miles. The rest of you miles will come from walking up and down the Strip. Have a great time!

    alright 2.03 mi 00:28 13:47 pace

    I was really sluggish after missing 3 training runs this past week. Illness and snow were my excuses. I hated missing the runs, I felt awful and it made todays pretty tough. I walked for 2 stretche... read more

      I missed a 30 minute run on Saturday, a 20 minute run on Monday and a 30 minute run on Wednesday. So I did a 30 minute run today instead of the scheduled 20 minute because I have a 40 minute run scheduled tomorrow. I am feeling like perhaps I should squeeze a 20 minute run in there before I tackle the 40 as that'll be my longest duration... advice?? Or am I overthinking it... ... haha

      If you have the time to flip flop the two runs (the 20 min & 40 min) it might not hurt to get in one more before you go for your long run. That will give you a chance to clear any left over cobwebs :) Then you can go out and enjoy a nice LSD (long SLOW distance) for your next run. Whichever you do, have a great time and enjoy!

  5. RUN
    blah rough. 1.82 mi 00:26 14:00 pace

    Not good. So slow I literally could walk faster. Trying to keep in mind I am not concerned with pace and trying not to compare to others. :P

      It's hard to stay in a mindset where time is not a competition. But as long as you're out there doing it, that's all that really matters. Just keep on keepin' on and you will see the speed improve over time. :-)

      Those are frustrating workouts, but they are also the times that make the high points so worth it. Keep at it!
