3:25, 3:15, sub 3:00 marathon? The sky's the limit! I want to see how fast I can get! :) Personal: I started running in 2009, and am still learning a lot about running. Right now I have it made, I am living in Cambridge, MA temporarily doing a Post-Doc at MIT and taking advantage of improving my running by learning from all the speedy Boston runners and hitting the hills. I travel to FL to visit my family and get some "heat" training in. Then travel back to Chicago frequently to see my husband and show off my new running legs in all the flat, fast races. |

| 55-60 mins hilly terrain
Newton hills; 50F 100% humidity; 360 ft elevation gain; AP 8:22 min/mi; 7.17 mi in 60:03; I don't know why I always negative split this course - it's out and back with the first half all downhill and the second half uphill ending at the top of heartbreak; I felt really strong heading uphill - finally felt that nice push without anything hurting!; effort ~ HMP I think

| 14-15 miles with last 20 mins at MP effort
Sarasota, FL - Legacy trail bikepath; 78F 96% humidity; so hot, air so thick! Tried to run an easier pace it got so hot towards the end the 20 mins MP miles were pretty tough. AP for entire run: 9:12 min/mi, MP miles were: 8:27 min/mi. 15 mi in 2:18:09. My right glute had slight pain on/off throughout most of the run, after mile 12 there was somehow no pain!! It's feeling much better than last weekend post-long run - progress! :)
