| Location: MN, Member Since: May 17, 2008 Gender: Female Goal Type: Marathon Finish Running Accomplishments: Two Marathons -
Grandma's Marathon 2007 (4:18)
Twin Cities Marathon 2007 (4:21)
Enjoyed the handful of halfs's I've run
Short-Term Running Goals: I'd like to shave 15- 20 minutes off my marathon time. I'd like to enjoy the ride as I work hard, recover and strenghten my body giving it my best. Long-Term Running Goals: I'd enjoy stepping it up and finishing an Ultra. I'd like to continue to encourage others in their running and perhaps take up some kind of coaching responsibilities Personal: I have an amazing husband who is my best friend and my biggest fan. He's incredible...he massages me and works out my muscles. How cool is that!?
I have two great kids and LOVE being their mom. They come to every race and cheer me on. |

Didn't sleep well last night.
Today's run I felt like going faster. I did tire out about mile 3 and knew I pushed it a bit faster than I should...but it was fun.
Read a few of the other blogs. You all are fast!

Mid afternoon run. Ran around Lake Johanna from work.
Felt pretty good. I've taken two days off this week, and really felt I needed it after working hard last week.
I feel my workout was a "good" one and not wasted miles.

Hot & Humid.
We ran faster than our usual long run...however we didn't run too far or too long (in comparision to our LONG runs).
Francis was running 20 and was pushing the pace. That was ok, we followed and enjoyed it.
The route was hilly, and I think that will be my last "hard" run before Grandma's in two weeks.

Katie biked along side (I always love that). At the FSC, I swipped my card, then she ran 1 mile with me. She's just starting to get back into it. Yesterday new shoes for her.
I felt ok today. Marathon thoughts/fears are starting to distract me. In a lot of ways, I'm looking forward to getting it over. Strangly, I'm excited to start TCM training, knowing I want to incorporate more speed into my weekly workouts.
Splits today:

Suprisingly, not easy. I was worried about the race, missing the group and felt the chicken and pasta in my tummy. I kept thinking, you could be feeling like this at mile 20, keep going girl.
I went one easy, 3.25 at marathon pace, 1.5 easy
