I accidentally ran 100 miles in November 2013. it was hard. I threw up a lot. decided to do a better job next time
I did it again on purpose October 2014--Heartland 100 winner and CR 17:38:37
Heartland 50 winner May 2014
Psycho Wyco 50k winner February 2012
Short-Term Running Goals:
Run enough to hold off the middle-age spread
Long-Term Running Goals:
Sub 3 hour marathon--SOMEDAY! Done!
New long term goal: ....run enough to feel kinda like I did when I was fit
Personal:
I was a single mom. Two times over. We all survived, despite the fact that I make atrocious decisions. Then, I met a man I didn't deserve. And he loves me so much. And I love him. We lived in sin and bought a house for two years then hired a judge and officially got married(to our great delight and also the delight of our mothers), then a month later he was diagnosed with cancer. Well we survived all that and he's 100% fine now. But, we're really out of shape and really busy with kids and jobs and running just isn't my priority and there's so many other layers to all of it, but I'm running anyway. This is my failure blog now. Just to log that one run a week if I snag it.
Somehow that matters and I want that run recorded.
8:15 AP. First run in full winter gear--tights, compression shirt, gloves, hat, the whole deal. Felt nice. Time to dial back the pace on all my runs for a while until I feel good and start racing well again. Maybe go fast once a week.
Weight: 0.00

Sounds good - that same plan (1 fast run/week) gets me over the hump when I'm in a running funk.

dialing back the pace is the perfect thing to do over the winter, and fast once a week to keep the cobwebs from building up. you've got it down.
winter gear -- ugh. i hate running in pants, but it's becoming a must in the mornings.

Wow, so early. Honestly, other than a few days we never get any real winter weather here, not like other places.
