Personal: I am a 52 yr. old single father of four children. I am retired after injuring my back in 2000. I had back surgery, stopped running, and gained about 80 pounds. Decided to take my health into my own hands....lost 100 pounds, went to Nepal and trekked for two months in the Himalayas...climbed almost 18,000 ft.....felt so proud of myself....began running again. I qualified for Boston in Oct. 2009. I have shifted my focus now on ultra-marathons with the hope to run my first this year.

Sunny, 60 F and winds out of the E @ 4 mph. humidity @ 72 %. 16.10 miles....tempo. Ran a steady pace 7.38 minutes per mile which is .36 sec. per mile faster than my BQ time for the marathon. Felt very comfortable, and I know that I can run a slower pace and still finish in a decent time. Total time for this run was 2 hours and 3 minutes. Plan is to run a long run this weekend with a negative split faster than marathon pace.

tread mill.......speed work... 3 supersets of 400/800/400 @ 9.0/9.2/9.4 with .10 mile rest in between sets and .25 mile cool down afterwards. First time doing this type of speed work, but its a start. pool.....40 laps...front crawl, then 50 laps...aqua jog. I'm finding that the aqua jogging is helping me with my running form. |
