My Story

3% incline on the treadmill. 5 miles in 42:40. 8:32 ap. felt good running today. Wish I felt as good running outside as on the TM. I hope I can get the confidence to get out there. 😊

First 1.8 at 0% incline. Didn't realize I hadn't set that until I was not feeling as fatigued as usual. Moved my towel I ise to cover the display and realized. Ran last 3.2 at 3% incline. Ran most at 6.8 mph but did increase to 6.9 I think around mile 3 and then ran last mile faster.. First lap at 7.1 next at 7.3 next quarter at 7.5 last 8.5 with last hundred at 9.2. Feeling really good this morning. Starting to feel better about the race. Still super nervous. 5 weeks to go!!

Time 42:52 average pace 8:32  

Half a mile cool down. 

Pilates. Good core workout. 

12 miles on the TM. Hadn't planned ahead. I should have run yesterday while my husband was home to watch the girls so I could be outside. That's okay. Feeling good right now! Ran first 5 at 2% incline, next 4 at -1% for some downhill training. Next 2 at 3% incline and last mile at 1% incline. Thought I should atleast vary elevation a bit. Started at 6.7 speed and then varies up and down between 6.6-6.9 until mile 7.8 set at 7. At mile 11 upped to 7.3 for a half of a mile then up to 7.7 for next quarter. 8 for the first 200 meters and then 8.5 for 100 meters, 9 for last 100 meters. Can't believe I made it! Half a mile cool down. 

12 miles in 104;59. Average pace 8:45. 

Easy two mile hike with my family. I was carrying my two year old in a back pack. Felt good to walk my legs a bit. Hips are sore today. I am thinking it was from the "downhill"@!
