I'm back!

I ran everyday in Page AZ. It was dry and hot each day as I ran. I ran inclined roads and trails everyday so today as I went to the gym, I worked on the elliptical for 60 min then I ran 2 miles on the tm and it felt easy peasy after the running I did earlier this week.

It's nice to be back and I have some fatty patty to burn off. What's new. This happens to me every year after I go to Lake Powell. There are to many treats to eat. Here we go!

Freedom run Monday morning. I feel pretty prepared after all my hill running the last two weeks. Let's do this!

Welcome back! Are you running the 5 or 10K?

From Lily on Fri, Jul 01, 2011 at 12:58:23 from 67.199.178.210

The 10k. I am freaking out a little, I haven't run a 10k since last Sept. I can't remember my game plan for those.... suggestions Scott and Allie?

Allie I highly doubt you have anything to burn off. You're a tiny girl. :)

well, i haven't run a 10k since january of 2009, and it took me 45 minutes, so you may not want to listen to my advice...

just don't go out too hard -- aim for 15 seconds slower than your 5k pace. be patient in the beginning and start out closer to half marathon pace. gradually pick it up and then throw it down in the last two miles. there will be a ton of people in that race so focus in on someone and pick them off, then go for another one. i think you will do great.
