I ran 22 miles today at 9:26/mile
pace in 3:26:43.
This is a decent pace for the distance.
I ran with Marc. He
ran 13 miles. I ran 22.
The goal was to do the 22 miles at ten minute mile pace and
if take any breaks, to get the split where break was done to the 10:00/mile range.
Actually 18 of the 22 miles are faster than 10:00/mile pace.
Mile 9 is 8:44/mile.
Mile 17 is 8:48/mile.
Mile 19 is 8:29/mile.
Mile 22 is 8:40/mile.
As always, I run faster late in the game to see how much I
have left in the tank. And because it’s
fun to run faster.

The Table:
The numbers to the left of the dash in the table are
scheduled miles. Numbers to the right are miles I ran. The last column reflects how “on track†I am
and is the cumulative total for the miles I am ahead or behind with regard to
the scheduled mileage. If there is an
asterisk in the table, it reflects the run was not done precisely as scheduled.NEW YEAR PRIMARY GOALS:
Double the mileage without injury
Consistency with running the
scheduled miles
Run the 5 scheduled days weekly
Do the Long Runs at the prescribed
distances
Monitor your progress frequently to
prevent yourself from becoming inconsistent
Identify running partners and
schedule runs with them month in advance if possible (accountability)
Races: Quality versus
Quantity. Go for PRs – train for the
event. No B2B races. No once a month races. Be selective.
Nine Week Summary. 12/31/12 through 3/3/13. I ran 359 of the 407 scheduled miles (88%).
The three weekday runs are fine
across the nine weeks. 1 of 27 runs not done as scheduled when
during Week 7, I ran a 20 miler on Monday and rescheduled the Tuesday ten miler
to Friday and ran 7 versus ten miles.
The Sunday runs are okay as well. I skipped the Week 7, 2/17/13 five miler as I ran 61 miles during the seven day period 2/10/13 through 2/16/13.
I skipped the week 8, 2/24/13 ten miler because I ran a hard effort the day before setting
a 4 minute and 29 second course PR on the hilly Colchester Half Marathon
course. The Week 9 Sunday ten miler I
skipped as well…Okay…maybe some slacking on the Sunday runs. I could have gotten out there today. I decided on taking a day off. I’ll watch the Sunday runs and get back on
track with those.
The Saturday Long Runs – I had VALID reasons for cutting short or missing a long
run. When possible, I adapted or made
the run up. Week 1 saw 17 versus 20
miles done as the last three weeks of December 2012 saw 16 days off and the
last week with running and the Long then being 13 miles. Week 3 and 5 had the BM issue and the Longs
cut short. I adapted for week 3. Week 6 was the Blizzard. I adapted by running Long on Monday during
Week 7 and cut the Week 7 Saturday Long run short. I ran 22 miles during Week 9 versus the
scheduled 18 miles.
I have not been short-changing the
schedule. I have consistently applied
myself to completing the scheduled runs at the prescribed distances.
Weekday Run Analysis: Doubling the mileage required I run slower during the initial
training period. The weekday runs and
the average pace per mile for those weekday runs are below. During Week 1-5, I ran 2/15 runs at average
pace of <9:00/mile pace. During
Week 6-9, I ran 7/12 runs at average pace of <9:00/mile
pace. I am now running faster while
maintaining the high mileage.
Week 1 (9:44, 9:27, 9:24). Week 2 (9:44, 8:57, 8:50), Week 3 (9:26, 9:32, 9:24), Week 4 (9:28, 9:35, 9:27), Week 5 (9:36, 9:08, 9:30)
Week 6 (8:55,
9:04, 8:40), Week 7 (8:51, 9:04, 9:26), Week 8 (8:55, 8:49, 8:54), Week 9 (9:10, 9:08, 8:55).

Humidity 75% I ran 5.81 miles today @ 8:41/mile. Of note, the mile2 split is 8:27, mile 5 split is 8:24 and the last 0.81 mile split is 8:28. These are faster miles than I have been running of late for Easy runs. That is good.

I ran 20.02 miles @ AP 9:28/mile
in 3:09:39. (Long Run pace range is 8:36-9:54/mile pace).
The goal was to get the miles done at 9:15-9:45
mile pace range. All splits, except four,
within the range above. The four splits
outside of the range are: Mile 2 at 9:12,
Mile 10 at 9:59, Mile 12 at 8:56, Mile 17 at 8:54. I would say this is consistent. The salt came through the third upper layer
today and visible on the jacket. Hotter
than usual. Of note, the Canal Trail not the best running conditions. Slush and puddles at various points. And by the time I ran a mile or two on the trail portion, running shoes soaked. A good run at any rate.

I ran 5.22 miles at 9:05/mile
pace in 47:27. I tried to run 10:00/miles initially by going slow and easy
and not breathing hard…found I was at 9:35/mile. So then decided to keep the effort the same
and go for 9:30s…then put together an
8:50/mile. What???
Figured I’d go for 9:30s still…9:08, 8:54
and 9:12 follow. Well I did not think I was breathing too hard
and I thought I was running easy.
No big deal. But I do
have a 31 miler coming up. And I want to
practice going slower because I cannot be running 9:00s
up front for the 50 mile race.
For the 31 miler: plan is to practice going out at
9:15-9:45/mile – just keep the splits within that range and toward the higher
end. As the run progresses, I will get
faster but I must monitor this! Keep the
splits around 9:30 is the goal. And to end the run at 9:30/mile AP is the goal.
This will be about the same plan for the 50 mile race I believe. I don’t plan to hold that pace for the entire
50…but I will get a good estimate of how long I might be able to hold that pace
for with the upcoming Long run.
The current goal for the Ultra is to get the fifty done at
<10:00/mile AP and in 8:20.
Currently, 9:30s are super easy…but we’ll see.

I ran 30.02 miles @ 9:29/mile
AP. It took 4:44:37 to complete the run (close to 5 hours). The goal was to keep all splits within the 9:15-9:45/mile range. I did that for 25 of the 30 miles. Mile 2, 4, and 25 was fast by a couple
seconds. Mile 26 slow by 11 seconds and Mile
28 slow by 42 seconds.

I am in Week 12 of my 16 week schedule. Week 14 through 16 will be the taper weeks. So today, I figure I will go for 9:45s.
Keep the splits between 9:30-10:00/mile
pace. But practice keeping them tight
around 9:45/mile pace. Get used to
running that slowly.
I ran 9:29/mile AP
for 30 miles Friday. But I know I cannot
hold that pace across 50 miles. The
current strategy for the 50 mile race will be to run 9:45 splits – try to keep
them tight around 9:45 (but 9:30-10:00/mile is acceptable). Today I ran all the splits and within a ten second range (9:33-9:43/mile). During the race, try to maintain 9:45s
for 40 miles at minimum. It will give
you a ten minute buffer for the last ten miles.
The GOAL TIME for the race will be 8:20
at 10:00/mile pace. Normally I would not think in terms of
building a buffer for a marathon – but this is the 50 mile distance…and 9:45s
are an easier pace to hold than MP. The miles today were VERY EASY. Will continue to train at 9:45s this week and run faster next week…because I don't want to devote to much time to slower training. AND
THEN…the three weeks of taper.
I HAVE BEEN SUPER CONSISTENT WITH MY MILES/SCHEDULE!!! I have run more than 90 percent of my scheduled miles. And I have applied myself to making up for the Long runs I cut short (by running longer Long runs than scheduled) but doing so wisely - I know there is a rule of thumb to not chase the missed runs...but I am being smart about it and monitoring how my body feels - and I am not overdoing it. What is important to me - THAT I MAINTAIN CONSISTENCY.

I ran the Savin Rock Half Marathon Race course today with
about 550 other runners. I ran this as a
training run and as an unregistered participant. Two official participants were Marge Barretta
(sister) and Marc Audet (training partner).
They ran well and I’ll have to check out their results.
My splits: I was intending to run 9:45s for the 13 miles and to keep the splits tight around
there with a 9:30-10:00/mile pace to
be considered acceptable. I had to pull
back some to keep the splits there…the first six miles were with a 9:27-9:39/mile spread (12 second range). Split
7 was 9:11/mile…could not hold back
anymore. Then I hit a 9:43 and a 9:41
split – got back on track. Mile 10 is 9:03/mile pace.
Mile 11 is 8:37/mile. Mile 12 is 8:46/mile. Mile 13 is 8:40/mile…Okay
– not running at speed here but clearly not sticking with my plan to run 9:45s. I
think what happened was I just kind of got in race mode to a degree.
An okay run. Ended up
doing 9:18/mile pace and got the
12.97 miles done in 2:00:44. It’s kind of close to 9:45/mile pace. At any rate, it was within Easy pace range
and there was some deviation – not as slow as planned…but still a valuable
run.

A Mile Time Trial: Okay – not happening today. I got the mile done @ 7:44/mile pace. I
think my 5 mile pace is 7:47/mile. So clearly I did not get the mile done at
mile race pace. Maybe I’ll give it
another go in a couple weeks.

I ran 5.83 miles attempting to maintain 9:45/mile pace. I
did not do so well with that and got 9:20/mile
pace on average for the run. It’s
okay. BUT, I must work on maintaining 9:45/mile pace. Going faster than that during the ultra will
not be wise. It will cost me and I will lose
time at the tail end of the race.
Attempt to maintain 9:45s
throughout the next Long run…or at least for the first twenty miles.

I ran 5.81 miles and tried keeping the splits tight around 9:45/mile for the purpose of practicing to stay
on pace for what I will attempt to run 50 miles at – a 9:45/mile pace per mile.
Key is not going faster. And the
goal is to get 40 of the 50 done at 9:45/mile. I would expect after 40, I would fall off the
pace although I am not certain how much I would fall off. If I were to hit eleven minute miles for the
last ten, I would still get my goal time of AP 10:00/miles
for the fifty (Eight hours, twenty minutes).
Splits today tight at 9:40/mile to 9:44/mile (4 second spread). Now that is a good range and I was able to
maintain consistency today.

I was going for 9:45s
but forgot to go slower. So I just ran
slower and not really striving to maintain 9:45s. I am confident though I will maintain
consistent 9:45s during the ultra and
not go out to fast. Got these four miles
done at 9:22/mile AP.

Didn’t feel like running long today. Had 25 miles scheduled. Was going to skip the run but figured I
should do something. So I ran 16 miles
and 15 of the miles @ 9:29-9:54/mile
pace which is a 25 second spread. The 16
miles were done at 9:34/mile average
pace in 2:33:16. Probably the first 15 miles done at an
average pace of 9:41/mile or so (Goal
was 9:45/miles). Mile 16, the last mile, is the fastest split
at 7:52/mile. That’s not a bad split. I always go faster for the last mile.
Only fuel: ten ounces of Gatorade throughout the run. I did not use any Power Gel.
So I slacked today.
BUT, there has been high consistency with putting in the miles these
past 13 weeks. I am okay with this. The March long runs were 22, 20, 30, 13, and
16…total miles for the five days = 101. Given
that, guess I could rationalize that cutting the 25 miler short today not such
a big deal.
Next three weeks will be TAPER weeks (less mileage).
