Just one race at a time

rest day

5.5 miles I was suppose to do 7X400 meter repeats.  When I blogged about this run last year I wrote how I thought they felt easy.  This year it was not easy at all!!!!! I only did 6.5 repeats and the last 2.5 I took of the 1% incline.  I am so mad at my self, have let distractions of all kinds get in the way my of running.  I would still like to PR at Boston this year.  I am clearly not in as good of shape as I was last year at this time.  How do you guy think I should train for Boston now? I want to start training harder than I did last year but I am afraid if I start now being so out of shape I will just get injured.  Any advise will be welcome.

5.5 miles with my friend.  The wind was really bad but I still think she is getting faster.

Splits:9:37, 9:35, 10:16, 10:08, 10:16

Lifted for arms

Spin

Really I just went to spin today and lifted for legs.  I am counting it as six miles thought...I normally never count spin as miles but today I am...take that!

Ran the local 5K with my family.  I wanted to run with my daughter but I lost her in the crowd right at the start.  I found my daughter-in-laws sister and ran with her.  She had never ran any faster than a 10 minute mile.  She finished at 28:xx I was so proud of her.  I could tell she wanted to slow down the last mile but she hung in.

Splits:8:19, 8:56, 9:59

Elliptical 11% the whole time! in 42:26!!!!!  Don't want to jump the gun but... I may be back to my old self!

Lifted for legs

Yoga - My daughter came to the class, "Free Family" day at the gym.  It was so fun to have her there!

These felt much harder than they should have.  6 on my own 6 with the group only three people showed up.  I think our little group is dieing.  I am going to try and add more miles during the week, it seems like I die at 10 miles so if I bump my 6 mile runs to 10 miles eventually it will feel easier, I hope!

Splits: 8:43, 8:52, 9:03, 9:14, 8:44, 8:48, 9:05, 9:02, 9:09, 8:54, 9:18, 9:53
