Ran on the trail at lunch with Colleen. Cold and overcast 38 degrees. Today was supposed to be a 9:47 easy day but when I get out there I just run....gotta learn how to slow myself down. Just started talking and time and miles got away from me before I knew it I was holding 9's and feeling great. Finished with an avg pace of 8:58 time was 44:54. When we were done we did lunges and wall sits. Gonna hurt tomorrow!!

Ran 14 miles on the trail. Linstead twice then ran from the 5 to the 1 and back. Felt good but again a little to fast for my long runs. Finished in 2:08:36 9:10 pace. Starting to think I should just do my long runs at marathon pace. Everyone says something different.

Ran Chesapeake Cross Country Race in the rain and mudd with my 11 year old daughter, her 11 year old best friend, and my 9 year old son. Started slower around a 9:20 pace (Colleen and I stayed with the girls because this was supposed to be an easy day for us) each mile they started to go a little faster. Around mile 2 my daughter took off.......winning first place in her age group. She finished in 28:06 an 8:56 pace. Her best freind was 50 seconds behind her, and my son was about 1 minute behind us! They did great. My son took 1st place in his age group also and was the youngest runner.

After the race I came home and did 3 more on the treadmill.

SO PROUD OF BOTH OF MY CHILDREN

Ran 5 miles at lunch on the trail with Colleen. What a beautiful day out. Wore shorts for the first time. Today was supposed to be an easy day with an avg pace around 9:40 but you know me....I try to slow down and actually did for 1 mile. Splits were 8:57, 8:49, 9:22, 9:47 (and you know what happened when I saw that one) 8:44. Damn I try to slow down for easy ones but panic that im not going to get faster by going that slow. Ill try harded next time. Finished in 45:44 Avg pace 9:08
