I'll keep running....
Because it gives me perspective.
Now I realize my problems aren't so big.
My life is pretty great afterall.
And a mile is a lot longer than it seems in the car.

4 TM miles

first 3 miles at .5 incline at 8:34 pace

last mile at 0 incline at 8:57 pace

 

Probably started out too fast considering I haven't run in 2 weeks... my left knee is bothering me a little bit on the inside where I had a little pain in the days after the marathon, it feels like it needs to crack.  Probably going to see the dr. about that and my arches before it gets worse.....

Lifted arms for the first time in a long time... that is gonna hurt tomorrow!!!

 

In an attempt to change up my "I eat the same 3 boring things all the time" diet, I found a few recipes online of things I don't normally eat/ think I don't like (especially fish...oh I'm scared for that one!).  Tonight's meal.... tofu parm with rice pasta.  I thought I hated tofu so I used it in a dish I know I like and I really enjoyed it!  I'll do that one again for sure!  Yum yum!

1st attempt at a TM hill workout, trying to feel it out.....

Set up on hill mode, 9:05 pace, level 8 and went for 20 minutes (2.75 miles according to the TM) it was intervals of 1 minute flat then 1 minute hill from 2.0- 4.6 incline.  Then I walked quickly for the remaining 0.25 mile and ran at 9:05 pace for the final 2 miles.
