Short-Term Running Goals: PR 1/2 marathon AGAIN
Long-Term Running Goals: Break 2:46 in Boston! Personal:
I used to run for BYU, but only after trying out three times and finally walking on, so I was never a star. However, it was wonderful to run with great people and under Coach Shane. When you run with fast people, you can't help to improve! I graduated BYU in 1998, and didn't run a race until 2002, after having my second child. My hiatus and other crazy life commitments have made my competitive running suffer, but the last couple of years I have tried to get back into it the best I can. I have been married since 1996, to Paul Lowry, who is a runner himself. I have three boys (my three rascals), ages 12, 10, and 8. After a great 2008 season, I was injured and eventually diagnosed and cross-diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis, a type of arthritis disease, which precludes running for all but the most stubborn. So I am on medications, trying to stay healthy, and seeing my PT often. And running! Now beating the streets in Hong Kong. |

| AM: 8.18k at 4:58/k PM: Hardest workout to date. 3-4 x 5k at goal HM pace. Since my Taipei HM was so fast that makes this workout faster because goal HM pace needs to be faster than Taipei, right? In Taipei did 3:41/k pace overall, so goal today was theoretically 3:40/pace or 18:20/5k, but that sounded so hard, I thought I would try for 18:45 for the first one and be to 18:20 by the last one. Curtis was supposed to join on #2-4. I showed up early to do #1 on my own so I would finish with everyone else because we were going out for dinner afterward. Felt good on the first one, 18:19, people starting to show up for their warm ups, waving hi, no sign of Curtis. Saw Curtis during my break, he was just arriving, not warmed up yet, so I told him to jump in when he could. I started #2 after 5:00 break exactly, after 3 or so laps Curtis jumped in. He as angsty and telling the dozens of people to move out to lane 2 and he was running fast, so we got 18:08. 5:12 rest, I asked to slow down the next one, so we got 18:15 (fast first two miles, then made 88/lap seem easy for the last one). 5:08 rest, and did 18:19 for the last one. Felt tired and wasted on one hand but on the other Curtis was holding me back (because I told him at the start I wanted to go no faster than 88). So this workout went much better than I thought it would. I felt the inside knee, starting on the third rep, but not bad. I could have really used an ice bath. Will run easy Wed for sure! |

| Ran 4k on my own around the track (5:00 pace), then stretched a bit and Curtis joined. Did another 1.3k warm up, then started into the 26k of hardish stuff, in a progressive fashion, wanting to end up at 3:50-3:40 pace. First 5k was 21:35 (4:19 ave), then 19:54 (3:59 ave pace), then 19:44 (3:57 ave pace), then doubled down, stopped talking, 18:52 (3:47 pace), 18:35 (3:43 pace), and last k was 3:40. This workout was hard, but I felt like it was good marathon training, I told myself with 4k to go, "would you run sub 6:00 pace or above 6:00 pace if you felt like this at the end of your marathon?" then pushed myself to keep under (3:44 pace is basically 6:00 pace). I will have an even bigger and badder version of this workout in two weeks. Another 3.75k at the end of cool down. |
