It was a good Monday run. Part of my run was to run some errands--literally. I got a couple inner tubes for our jogging stroller and some slime. I'm hoping to bump up my miles just a bit this week, probably to 44-45 or so, and then keep building for the marathon. I'd like to keep my miles a bit higher over the next year, probably keeping in mind a marathon next year. Maybe Boston or St. George or Top of Utah, with a goal to drop my time down below 2:45 or so.
I think I could be pleasantly surprised with consistent miles, but I'd like to at least get around there for the next year.

I did 3 x 1 mile repeats with 2/3 mile recovery. The splits were 6:26, 6:22, and 6:20. After the third recovery jog, I did 1/3 a mile in 1:14 (5:42 pace). My speed has a long way to go, but this is a step up from last week and I'm happy with it considering I'm also building mileage right now. I felt much better today than I did a week ago, and my repeats were significantly faster.

It was a nice recovery run today. Finishing in the fivefingers felt really nice. It's busy right now with the class I'm teaching, but I'm feeling really good about training right now.

| I ran on a loop to Andulka Park and back home. Previously I thought it was 2.5 out, but it turns out it's actually 3, so some of my runs have been longer than I had been thinking (and I've been going a significantly faster pace overall than I had thought). I felt really good today and am looking forward to my long run! |

| My long run was broken up due to some family activities. I ran 14.5 in the morning, about nine with the boys in the stroller. Then went 3 more in the evening just to bump up the total mileage. I actually feel really good and am happy with how I've been feeling as I've increased mileage. I don't have nearly as many little aches as I've had in the past, and I'm hoping that my work on form and just running smarter in general is contributing to this. If so, then I'm confident that I'll be able to have some solid mileage and eventually get some pretty solid marathons in the coming years! |
