| Warmed up 10 minutes. Ran a fartlek workout, 10 sets of 2 minutes on two minutes off on the treadmill. I ran the recovery at 8.0 mph, and the fast ones starting at 9.6 mph, and increasing .1mph every two intervals. The last one I ran at 10.1 mph. I cooled down to 7.5 miles. Total time: 51:12 | | Add Comment |

It was snowy and wet this morning, so I went out to the Olympic Oval to do a track workout.
I ran a 2 mile warm-up, followed by 10 x 200 with 200 meters recovery. (Actually, over 200 meters since the track is long.) I ran the intervals between 41 and 42 seconds, with the last one being 40.26. Then, I cooled down 2 miles.
I know these aren't that fast, but it's the first day that I have felt like the speed is starting to come back. It's nice to do some training under six minute mile pace. | | Add Comment |

I had the brilliant idea today that Teren could bring Cole and Lily to Sugarhouse Park to play while I ran laps with Bill and some of the East High girls. This was great in theory, until a biting wind kicked up right before I started running. Poor Teren had to wait while I finished my run and entertain the kiddos. Cole weathered the cold pretty well, but Lily is only three months old, so she wasn't too happy. Teren had her all bundled up and was holding her when I finished. My kids are going to be tough whether they like it or not!
I ran 6 miles (three laps) around the park. It felt great to get on some soft surfaces. I was going to run one more lap, but decided to have mercy on my poor little family. So, I will be adding on two miles to tomorrow's run. | | Comments(2) |

Cruddy weather sent me to the treadmill today. My goals was 10 miles, but I was having stomach issues, so I stopped at eight. I started at 8.2 mph and increased .1 every five minutes. My total time was 55:21.
I was more consistent this week, with a little more mileage. However, I can do better. I would like to run 35 miles next week, do core and push-ups and tricep dips daily, and run a ten mile long run. Those are my goals for the next week. As long as I see consistent improvement, my fitness should gradually return. | | Add Comment |
