| Wow! I've got a long way to go! It was rough. I stopped the treadmill at least 4x. I'm starting from scratch again after a 3 month holiday hiatus.
I started on the treadmill and my toes were already frozen, tingling INSIDE my house. The temperatures were so cold this week that we had 3 snow days. I also tried a new shoe (Karhu Fast by Fulcrum) that I bought for $22 at Sierra Trading Post on my drive back to MI. I think the shoe might be a little big and maybe that added to my toes going numb. I switched back to one of my tried and true shoes after warming my toes by the fire.
10 warm-up setting 6.0 @ 10 min/mile
10 tempo. I gradually worked up to 7.8 @ 7:41 min/mile
5 minute recovery. 6.0 @ 10 min/mile
15 tempo. Again ran most of this around 8:30 pace and then worked up to 7:41 for the last 5 min.
10 minute recovery. 6.0 @ 10 min/mile

| This workout was about the same pace average, time, and distance as yesterday, however, the strategy was different.
miles 1-2: started at 10min and worked up to 9:30min. easy
miles 3-4: increased the speed until 8:13min (marathon pace)
mile 5-6: hold pace a little longer and then cool down. I finished early at 5.36 and didn't do the entire cool down. I get restless on the treadmill sometimes.
Overall felt better than yesterday.

| Aubree and I began running about 7:40am. The roads were a sheet of ICE! We pretty much, walked, skated, and tip-toed for two miles before we made it back to my house. 20minute mile pace. It wasn't really running but I'm counting it anyway for the following reasons. I woke up early, was wearing all my clothes including reflective lights, I was outside, and I was moving. Also, my heart rate was high from the adrenalin from nearly falling every step!
I tried doing the rest of the long run on the treadmill. 10min mile pace on the treadmill seemed like a sprint after our ice-skate running. I only made it 4 miles before my whole family melted down and needed me! I guess I'll try 2 longs next week. Again - Better N' Nuttin!

| Another treadmill workout. total time 50:10 Total miles 6. Pace average 8:21
15 minutes warm up. started at 10min pace. then I increased 45 sec faster per pace every 5 minutes.
25 minutes tempo. started at 8:30 pace then increased on treadmill every minute. When I got to around 7:10, I held it for a couple minutes and then lattered down every two minutes or so until 8:00 pace
10 minute cool down. lattered down even more ending at 10 min pace.
overall I felt better on the mill today. I have so much pent up energy! I could have kept going but I have children who need me now. :)

Since this was a tempo run and not a speed training run, I focused on miles and not minute intervals. The following are approximate times. I don't remember exactly.
1- warm up around 10-9:50 pace
2 warm up 9:30 pace
3 increase pace 9:00
4 increase pace 8:30
5 Marathon pace just under 8:00
6 Marathon pace @ 8:00
6.17 cool down and hop off the treadmill. I was supposed to cool down 2 miles but get too bored. I did run 5 minutes more total on the treadmill this time! I'm proud about that. It's BABY STEPS for me. :)

Aubree and I ran OUTSIDE today!!! I started in my SKI CLOTHES for the first 2 miles. Temps were in the single digits. I had so many layers on that I started sweating underneath. We took a kinda of long break becasue I needed to readjust my layering. A balaclava would have been nice but I made do with a hat and neck gator. I'm so PROUD of us for running 8 more miles! Our warm up pace was around 11 min/mile. We ran around 9:30 steady for the last 8. I only slipped on ice one time. I started getting really cold again the last few miles. My fingers are STILL NUMB right now and it is kind of hard to type. I know we are crazy but it felt so good to finally be outside!

| treadmill again. slower pace overall. stopped a lot to talk on the phone. ran a record 64:00 minutes on the treadmill. I jimmy rigged the boxes and hooked up the computer so I could get caught up in Downton Abbey. My head kind of hurts bopping up and trying to watch TV. Not sure I will do that again. I can't wait for warmer weather! Today was 3 degrees.

| I'm trying to follow the Boston workouts as best I can on the treadmill.
Type: Training/Speed Distance: 6.0 Overall Pace: 8:54 min/mile Incline: 1
Warm Up: 15 min. started 12min pace then slowly increased to 9:30min
Tempo: 15 min. started at 8:30 pace the slowly increased to 7:00min pace.
Recovery 5 min. walked for a minute then slowly increased to 10min pace.
Tempo: 10 min. started at 8:30pace then slowly increased to 7:00min pace.
Cool Down: ? min. I walked a little and the ran about 10min pace until the treadmill hit the 6 mile mark.
I realized with treadmill running I can't just sprint and hold the pace. I think I would fly off the treadmill. The slow increases and decreases in pace have helped me adjust to treadmill running and take some of the boredom out of it. I'm relistening to General Conference again.

| treadmill AGAIN. i wanted to run 12 but admittidly was happy when my daughter begged for my help at mile 9. Downton Abbey got me through the first 52 minutes. The minutes dragged after than and my eyes started to get blurry.
Pace average: 9:05 This was a faster than usual pace for a long run but I was on the treadmill and just want to get off it as fast as possible!
