Half Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

Maybe someday I'll have something noteworthy to post in this section. I have only completed three 5ks and a 5 miler; all at an average pace somewhere in the 9:00-9:30min/mile range

Painter's Half 2010 - 2:03:54 

Short-Term Running Goals:

Painter's Half Marathon - would like to keep an average pace of 9:00min/mile. 

Painter's Half - Went over my goal and finished in 2:03:54 :( It was my first half though.  I had a great time and learned what I need to work on.  

Salt Lake Half Marathon - would like to finish in under 2 hours. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Would like to complete a full marathon in the fall of 2010 and finally conquer the Herriman Hill...to be honest, there are several hills in Herriman I'd love to conquer, but that one for sure!

Personal:

I am a stay-at-home mother, married and have two young boys.

P90X "Plyometrics" today.  I really tried to push myself and not modify anything.  I was sweating buckets!  This is such a tough workout!

P90X "Shoulders & Arms" and "Ab Ripper" workouts.  My arms are going to be so sore! I'm starting to be able to lift more weight on some of these exercises.  I'm nervous I might get bulky looking so I'm trying to keep my reps high.

P90X "Yoga".  Ahhhh, I love yoga.  This was such a needed change for me.  I've took a yoga class in college and when I was a member of a gym, I frequently took yoga classes.  This is by far, the most difficult yoga workout I've done.  It felt so good to stretch my sore muscles though.

My husband and I took our boys for a long bike ride this morning.  He pulled the bike trailer stroller and I rode beside them.  Since we live at the top of a hill it was a nice ride down but coming back was a different story.  That was hard! I just tried to focus on breathing and keeping a steady pace all the way up.  I was so proud of my out-of-shape husband too who didn't have to stop once while he pulled 80+pounds behind him! 

P90X "Legs and Back" and "Ab Ripper" workouts.  Then I ran 2.5 miles on the TM to try to loosen up my legs a bit.  I only ran at a 6.0 and I am really feeling the effects of taking 2+ months off of running.  I have no endurance! Hopefully it will come back if I keep at it.  No problems with my knee though so that's good news!
