Felt really good. Was planning to do a "recovery" run but had enough energy for some TM games (mixing up speeds, etc) and tomorrow have a planned day off running so decided to work short but with intensity.

Cristy ran 2 miles in 19 mins greatAF TM Intervals – 2 mi / 00:19 09:30 pace
First half mile warm-up in 5:05. Then 6 repeats of 0.1 mi fast/0.1 slow starting at 6.6mph and ending at 7.2 mph. That felt great! Used my Nike Frees to focus on form.
Mile 1: 9:55
Mile 2: 9:05-

It was wet & muddy but no ice sheets this time so I got to run the whole distance outside and it was a pretty warm day: 40F. Felt good, kept a consistent pace for most of the run, a little slow in mile 4 when I climbed a big hill. Managed to increa... read more

I've been looking for a runner's yoga routine. Where did you find yours?

Linda, there are some nice poses: a lunge series where you move your hips side to side; trikonasana, side angle pose, a series of rolling the ankles & feet around, and also some downward dog. It's a favorite post-run yoga session.

Thanks Cristy! Yes, these are great. I do lunges, downward dog and the side angle poses. Will have to check out the ankle and feet rolls! Sounds perfect!

Putting "marathon" in the title, even when it's a fraction, makes it seem more significant. ;-)
Felt great, but had hoped to make it longer. Will have to save the 6 miler for tomorrow, when I won't have to spend 5 hours helping gather dele... read more
