New PR! The race apparently has become the 2nd largest half in the US with the recent growth, so the course was crowded. Nonetheless, in my traditional fashion, I went out probably a tad too fast, ... read more

good Amelia Island - Fort Clinch S... 11.3 mi 01:54 10:05 pace
Beautiful beach run to start the vacation. However, pretty difficult to run on packed sand. Lesson learned. Oh, and sunscreen. I should have worn more of that.

Day 1 back on the road. Trying to be diligent about waking up early to get a daily run in each day at the hotel. So far, 1/1!

great World Gym - Treadmill 6 mi 00:58 09:41 pace

alright Run Auburn Half Marathon 13.1 mi 02:07 09:43 pace
Under the weather and wasn't really feeling the run at all this week, sadly. Yet, still finished 28 seconds off PR pace, so I'll take it.

Nursing back from injuries and having made the decision to end a friendship, I decided to ignore the injuries and the sore throat and just go for the run. I nearly turned around to come back home a... read more

good Treadmill - Easy 5 5 mi 00:50 09:57 pace
Was hoping to get in a tempo 8, but wasn't feeling like battling the 8000 count pollen nor the pending torrential storms, so switched the plan and went with the easy 5 inside today.

good Treadmill - Intervals 5.3 mi 00:55 10:22 pace
Today's planned workout called for a warm-up, 4x1200 with 400 in between. The first two sets went brilliantly. The next two...not as much. Alas, again done, but really looking forward to tomor... read more

Perhaps you ran the first two repeats too fast? 1200s might be run as either a lactate threshold workout or a VO2max workout; I'm guessing you're doing the former? If so, those 1200s are typically run at a pace 25 to 30 seconds per mile slower than your 5k race pace. VO2max intervals are typically run at a pace 10-12 seconds per mile faster than your 5k race pace, but I'd be surprised if your prpgram has you running 1200s for VO2max; for women, 800s or 1000s are more often prescribed.

Good point, Marius. This is my attempt at following the Hanson Brooks plan for beginners, but in my readings so far on it, I haven't seen a good male/female distinction. I'll have to do some more research and modify accordingly.

good Silver Comet - Long Run 13 mi 02:10 10:00 pace
Beautiful day for a run! Had to cut it short, as I was running late in getting out the door unfortunately.
Rinse, repeat!
