Ran two miles today with a 5th grader at ladera elementary. They were doing their annual school two mile race and I got asked by his mom to run with him. He wanted to win-but ended up placing 2nd. This race was an out and back course and he did really well. His time was 13:30 for two miles. Not too shabby for a 5th grader!!!

Ran the ship rock relay marathon this morning. Our team had 5 runners each running 5miles except for leg 5 which ran 6.2 miles. I ran leg 4 which was either gradual uphill or downhill the whole time.(nothing steep-but not completely flat either) my splits were 6:06 (slight down) 6:11 (slight down) 6:49 (uphill) 6:19 (slight up) 6:03 (flat). .05 in 17 seconds. Overall average pace was 6:17. I was hoping for my pace to be around 6:10-6:15 but I still Felt pretty good about this one.. I was mostly running by myself the whole time. A team of running men all dressed the same passed me going really fast and during my run I passed 2 or 3 of them. Our team was 1st relay team overall-so that was exciting. We ran 2:49 for our overall time. Got some pottery for winning. Fun race today!

Got up early and did 3 miles easy then 10 at marathon pace. Goal today was to keep my 10 miles under 6:30 pace. I would love to get a pr in my upcoming marathon, which would be anything under 6:30 pace. Not sure I am there yet-but still have a little more than 5 weeks for training. Anyway, splits for 10 miles were 6:24, (down) 6:35 (flat) 6:57 (up) 6:15 (down) 6:09 (down) 6:07 (down). The last 4 miles were at the track and I averaged 6:30 pace. (My garmin kept wanting to count each mile on the track short-so I kept track myself) overall average pace for 10 miles was 6:27. (1 mile cd) Felt relaxed today. Was hoping for slightly faster miles at the track but that's ok-I'm happy with the way my body felt. I think more track workouts may help me-which I will do over the next couple weeks.

2.5 really easy on the treadmill. Legs were extremely sore today. (I did body pump for the first time on Monday) kept my weight light but I guess it still made me sore! Funny thing is that my muscles felt fine Monday and Tuesday morning for the run. (After my run they tightened up and have been tight ever since) this run helped to loosen them-but they are still tight and sore.

Got up this morning and ran outside. Wanted to do something moderate. I have the red rock relay race in moab on Saturday. This is a Ragnar style race (although not nearly as many miles) I have 2 legs I'm running which will be about 11-12 miles total. I wanted to keep it somewhat easy today so I can have fresh legs for Saturday. Today I did 5 minutes hard, with 3 minute jog, then 3 minutes hard, 2 minute jog, then 1 minute hard. Pace for 5 minutes was 5:54, 3 minutes was 6:02, and 1 minute 5:30. Recovery pace 8:00-8:20. Legs were still sore today, but after warming up they loosened up on me. Felt relaxed today. Finished up with a cool down on the treadmill.

Ran the moab red rock relay race today. It is a 63 mile race that starts in moab and runs up the canyon into the lasal mountains. The race is split of into 2 different legs for 6 people. I have never really done relays but now I have done 2 for 2 weeks in a row. They are fun! Anyway, my first leg was the first leg of the race. 5.7 miles-beginning in town and running up the canyon. We started at 5:40 am and by the time I waited in the bathroom line I didn't have time to warm up. My leg started and finished at the same elevation, flat with some rolling hills. Splits were 6:09, 6:05, 6:18, 6:15, 6:13 and 4:15 for .69. 6:12 average pace for the whole 5.70 miles. Felt great today! Better than last week. The course continues up the canyon and then into the lasals. My next leg was a brutal 1250 foot climb in 3.97 miles. (Essentially I was running switchbacks up the mountain the whole time! It was very hard as there were no breaks of uphill until the very end! Average pace for this leg was 8:35 per mile. lol! This leg was hard! I was glad to be done and relax. Once we were at the top of the mountain the views were incredible! It was nice to watch/cheer my other teammates. Jumped out and ran an extra 5.5 miles with some of them. After we hit the top, the rest was downhill back to town. Not sure where my team placed, but we just did it for fun! It was beautiful, the weather was perfect, met some awesome ladies and had a great day!! Go ladies in red!!!

Got up this morning and felt terrible. Decided to go for my workout anyway. Plan was to do 3x3 miles with .6 in between. 1.25 warm up then first splits were 6:13 (down) 6:33 (up and down) 6:18 (down) .6 recovery in 8 minute pace. Next set of splits were 6:27 (down) 6:24 (down) 6:51 (rolling) felt terrible on the 2nd set so I decided to call it a day. Ran a couple miles back home. (Running these miles slowly was painful) got home and did basically nothing the rest of the day. Felt sick to my stomach all day and couldn't eat anything. So weird! (I think it was a mild case of the flu) workout definitely didn't go as planned but the effort was there!

Got up this morning for a track workout. Feeling much better this morning then 2 days ago so I decided to attempt it. 1.25 warm up then (1 mile, 800, 200) x2. Jogged .25 in between each around 3 minutes. Splits were 5:48, 2:45, 34 seconds for the 200. Next set was 5:40, 2:43. (Had to skip out on the last 200m bc of time. (Cooled down 2 miles on treadmill and did 4 strides at home) did this same workout about 2-3 weeks ago and it was slightly faster today so I am happy about that.

Long run of 20 outside today. Goal was to keep it easy today and run relaxed. Started at 815 today and it was already 60 degrees! Too hot. Looped twice to my house for water and Gatorade. Definitely got hot for me today! I totally got bored on this run.. About 8-9 miles in I kept thinking holy crap I still have so much farther to go! Anyway,average pace for entire run was 7:29. Last 5 picked it up to 7:10 pace just because... Uvm is 4 weeks from today! Another week or two then taper time!

My alarm didn't go off this morning so I woke up an hour later than planned so I wasn't able to do my original planned workout so I improvised. Did 3 sets of 8 minutes hard followed by 1 minute jog then 1 minute hard then three minute jog recovery. First 8 minutes was 5:54 pace (down) 1minute 5:20 pace. 2nd 8 minutes at 6 minute pace (up and down) 1minute 6:05 pace (up) 3rd 8 minutes at 6:00 pace (up and down) Felt good today.

Ran in Abq today. Drove to a bike trail. I wanted a moderate workout today. (Yesterday's workout was supposed to be a lot harder/longer than it was so I wanted to add a little speed today-but nothing too strenuous) did 5 minutes hard, with 3 minute jog then 3 hard with 3 minute jog then 4x1 minutes hard with 1 minute easy in between. 5 minutes in 5:48 pace (flat-very slight down) 3 minutes in 5:42 pace(flat/slight down) 1 minutes were between 5:06-5:25 pace. Recovery in between everything was kept to about 8 minute pace. Legs and body were a little tired. (Probably from yesterday)

Ran in durango co today. Was planning on 2x2 miles at tempo pace but it didn't go as planned. Ran on the highway in the canyon. 8000 plus feet. Anyway, did 1.5 warm up then started my 2 mile tempo. First mile was 6:10 and then I decided to run on a dirt trail and go by effort. This trail got more and more rocky and steep as it went up. My 2nd mile split was 9:12 lol. After my tempo my right calf started hurting a bit. Due to this and the terrain I decided to just take it easy back to the condo. I typically alwAys finish my workouts as planned but this time I felt it was right to listen to my body.

Track workout today. Did .75 warm up then 1.5 miles, then 4x1000s. 400 jog in between everything (3 minutes). My 1.5 miles was ran in 8:45. (5:50 pace) splits for my 1000s were 3:28, 3:25, 3:26 and 3:22. I was scared how I would feel on this workout but I actually felt pretty strong! Much better than my last track session. Hopefully I am starting to peak at the right time.

Last long run before the marathon. Wanted a marathon specific workout today so I did 3 miles ez followed by 3x3 miles at marathon pace with .5 jog in between sets. (On the last set I did 4 miles instead of 3) first 3 mile splits were 6:10, 6:36, 6:30. (College loop twice) kept recovery at 7:50-8:00 pace. Next set was 6:23, 6:36, 6:13.. Last set was 6:16, 6:28, 6:25, 6:14. (Last 1.5 miles at track) these splits were a little faster than marathon pace -but I felt pretty good today. Shooting for a 2:55 or better which is 6:40 pace. 1 miles cool down with 6 strides. (Did have a weird pain in my lower leg in my last set after my first 2 miles.. Same pain I felt a couple days ago on my run in durango-it came on suddenly and went away suddenly-but was kind of sharp and did cause me to slow just a bit. Lasted for about a mile....pain on my right leg.. The muscle underneath my inner ankle.. Weird)
