Husband was off today so it was nice to actually run outside. Did a fartlek run. Ran 8x800s with .25 in between. (goal was to keep the recovery somewhat fast as to have an overall fast time for the workout) Ran 1.25 warm up then did a loop. Splits were 3:10 (ran the 400 jog in 2:00) 3:05 (rest 1:46) 3:01 (1:47) 2:57 (1:46) 3:09 (1:47) 3:15 (1:52) 3:39 (1:49) 3:05-then cooled down. Not including my warmup and cooldown-my avg pace for 5.75 miles was 6:36. This was the first time in a LONG time that I have felt really good running...

Was able to run outside today! yeah! goal was to do 6 moderate and finish with 4 at half-full marathon pace. I did my typical 7 mile loop backwards and added my 3 mile loop in there. Avg pace for first 6 was 7:15. avg pace for last 4 was 6:22. Avg pace for the whole 10 miles was 6:54. Felt strong today and was happy with the outcome.

Did 2x2 miles ouside today with .75 mile recovery in between. (mind you this workout was mostly downhill except for the 1st mile which was net uphill and 4th mile which was equal on elevation gain and loss) Splits were 6:27, 5:59, (.75 at 7:10 pace recovery) last two miles were 6:08 and 6:29. (6:23 avg pace for 4.75 miles) Felt pretty tired by the end of this one-especially once I was home. I think I was dehydrated and felt much better after drinking lots of water.

Woke up with snow on the ground today, but hubby had today off so I was bound and determined to run outside. Wanted to do a fast tempo so I drove to the track. I did a 3.25 mile warm up. (It took a while for me to warm up with it being so cold) After stretching I started my tempo. Splits were 6:16, (kind of a slow start) 6:12, (thats better) 6:08 and my last .5 was 2:54. (6:10 avg pace overall) Felt pretty good today-first mile was the hardest-for some reason it always takes my body the first mile to adjust into tempo pace and then I get more comfortable. I am planning on doing this workout again in 2-3 weeks and hopefully my time will be faster.

Ran on the mill today. Did 1.5 warm up then did a hill workout. Did 8x400s on an incline of 6.0 at 7 minute pace. Recovery was 400 in between at 8 minute pace. Felt like this was a moderate workout. I was tired-but not exhausted.

Long run outside today. Halfway through my run my garmin died. (I forgot to charge it beforehand) My avg pace for 7 miles with the garmin was 7:15 pace-but these miles were mostly downhill so I will avg my pace to be 7:20 overall with the uphill.

Got up early for once and ran outside. It actually didn't feel that cold for being only 21 degrees. Anyway did 1 mile warm up then 3x1.5 miles with .25 in between. Ran the first 1.5 in 9:34 (6:22 pace) (1:46 recovery). (the first one was slight net uphill) Ran the second one in 8:44 (5:50 pace) (2:04 recovery) This one was really downhill. The third one was 9:44 (6:30 pace) This one was net uphill-finishing on a very steep uphill. Cooled down. Felt great today...

13 miles outside today. Total avg pace was 7:15. Wanted to run at a steady comfortable pace. (not too slow-not too fast) Felt good. The last mile or two was tougher though-probably bc this is the longest I have ran since the St George marathon. Time to start getting serious and ramping up the mileage for my half coming up

Got up early and ran at the track this morning. It was all of 18 degrees. Felt very "off" and tired today. I think it was a combination of a nasty cold and not being totally recovered from Saturday's long run. (body was just exhausted) Wanted to do 4x1600s with 400 jog (about 3 minutes) in between but I only ended up doing 3 due to time and feeling crappy. Splits were 6:11 (terrible start) 5:55 and 5:49. Hopefully I will feel better next hard workout. I was definitely not feeling it today.....:(
