Sub 3 hour marathon.

Personal:

Married.  Stay at home mom.  My husband and I have 2 daughters and 4 sons.  And I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

With a seemingly impossible long-term goal of running a sub 3 hour marathon, the following scriptures give me hope:

In your patience possess ye your souls. Luke 21:19

But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. James 1:4

But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. Romans 8:25

Submit cheerfully and with patience to all the will of the Lord.         Mosiah 24:15

And Ezra teaches that discipline and patience are born of disappointment.

Ran with Michelle; it wasn't as cold as last Monday.  THANK THE HEAVENS ABOVE!!  (Each year from December on, I pout and look forward to springtime!)

Still getting over my cold, not too bad this morning though.  Five weeks pregnant.

Aerosmith and Brad Paisley accompanied me on my run today...we were really getting into it!  I would imagine we were sort of funny to watch at times (we know how to get down!).  I was a bit sad that I had to get back to my house asap so that Phillip could take off for work; I was really enjoying myself.  Ran 8(+) miles.

Met up with Michelle in S.F. this morning for tempo.

Warmed up for 25 minutes.

Two miles at tempo effort even though it was at a slower (6:45) pace.

Trying to get over my cold...it's actually a bit worse today than yesterday.  Stayed with Michelle for the two miles.  She ended up doing a 6 mile tempo.  Looped around and ran with her perhaps a third of her fifth mile.  She finished really strong.  It's good to have her to run with.

Ran toward Ali's home and met her half way.  The wind was pretty awful.  (I brace myself for it each morning, just in case.)  Did the IFA loop and didn't have to deal with the wind the remainder of the run.  I'm guessing from my time (and knowing the approximate distance) that it was around 9.5 miles total.

Ran to Ali's home and then we did a 7 miler in the river bottoms.  Weather wasn't as bad as I had expected.  It was even on the warm(er) side...compared to some of the cold temps I've run in lately.  I have slept so well the past two nights; I think I'm over my cold (fingers-crossed)!

Best guess on mileage today; could have been more.  Ran on a trail in snow for 70% of the run.  Ended up meeting up with the Sojourners' after all.  We met at the mouth of Provo canyon and decided to run AWAY from the wind and that meant away from the scheduled run up the canyon.  No tears on my part, brrrr!  Cheryl was full of interesting stories and time passed quickly.

I need to be getting in more miles by warming up before the group meets, if I'm wanting to do more than 10-12 miles on Saturdays.  About half of the group did 8 miles; most Sojourners' take it way easy during the winter.  So easy that there were only about 7 of us this morning.  (During the summer it's typically around 30 runners.)  I am trying to break myself of this exact habit.  I'm glad I ended up meeting up with them and look forward to it every week.
