Felt okay during this run. Ran without music again. Just listened to waves and birds. Wanted to quit after 1st mile but just kept going. Ended up being cold most of run and not sure why. I was a little hungry when I started but quickly forgot that... read more

Jorie ran 5 miles in 50 mins goodrecovery run – 5 mi / 00:50 10:00 pace
Schedule said 4 miles extremely slow. I probably should have gone a little slower than I did but this was still a nice relaxing easy run. I almost switched it up with tomorrow's run but figured I should stick to schedule. I will probably have to ski... read more

Jorie did a fitness workout for 30 mins alrightBoot camp – 00:30
Plyo was the worst part of tonight. Dead legs did not want to jump. But I got through this too. Happy for the upper body and core portions. Surprisingly the tons of squats and lunges felt pretty good. Really glad this was a short 30 min class toni... read more

Jorie ran 6.5 miles in 63 mins tiredIs this run over yet??? – 6.5 mi / 01:04 09:46 pace
Did not bring music and due to the weight lifting workout last night I just had dead legs tonight. I really was struggling for motivation and wanted to quit with each step. I was supposed to run at an easier pace with 3 min surges every 15 min. I di... read more

You had dead legs and wanted to quit but you stuck it out for over an hour? That's pretty cool if you ask me.

Jorie did a elliptical workout for 20 mins goodElliptical – 00:20
Not sure what distance was but finished off day with 20 min on elliptical followed by 20 min stretching & foam rolling. My training schedule only had me down for the strength so this was just added bonus on cross training day.

Just a 4 mile warm up on the bike at the gym random program. Not much to say except it did not hurt today to sit on the bike. Still I have been skipping the hour long rides that my training schedule has down for cross training. Maybe I will actually... read more

Jorie ran 11 miles in 1 hour and 49 mins goodLakefront – 11 mi / 01:49 09:56 pace
Amazing 11 mile run today!!! I must thank Marty for giving me the idea of doing math during my run. My fist mile was slow at 10:26 so I started thinking what pace to I need to hit over the next 10 miles to hit an ave pace of 10 min miles. And once I... read more

nice run! I always 'joke' that I run a 10:00 pace because the math is easier to calculate splits!

I always find myself doing math in my head, but mostly during races not training runs...and i usually find it's more trouble than it's worth! Way to keep it under 10 overall!!
