Ran Big Loop, Church Route, and Smallville to make 15 miles. This is not my easiest long run route. Ran this as a progressive (5 mile increments) run. Feel pretty good about it as I just ran a pretty hard 10 miles yesterday. Building the mileage, should be hitting over 50 per week next week.

Ran another 15 today but as a steady state run. Forgot to put on my HR monitor so I don't have that data. I really don't like these kind of runs! Always seems harder than it should.

3 Days off -- Gone to a big Team Roping -- Won 3rd out of 400 Teams -- Qualified for the Finals in Las Vegas in December -- Big Win...!!!

With the 3 days off I was feeling good. Planned on running 13 but decided about halfway through to go ahead and run 15. Didin't realize pace wise what I was doing until it was finished but pleased with the progressive pace of the run.

Nasty weather outside so I opted for the TM today. Decided on a long steady run. 15 miles @ 10 minute pace. That's 2.5 hour on my feet, almost the time of running a full marathon. :-)

Oh, by the way, did I mention I hate running this slow?

Still trying to get some speed back. Warmed up for the first two miles. Had a couple of fast miles in the middle but hit the hills at mile 6 and it really slowed me down, then ran the last two miles easy as a cool-down. (I think it's 12 weeks until Boston!

Well, I ran my first 20(+) run for Boston training today. All was good up until mile 18, about 15 of these miles were good marathon pace miles. Then it was tough! The last two (21,22) cool down miles were brutal. I probably shouldn't have jumped from 15 mile long runs to a 22 mile run. I think I got dehydrated, by the way I was feeling. This is typically my downfall in long runs. The first 17 felt pretty good with pretty much the paces I wanted to hit. Got 3-4 more of these runs before boston. :-(

Good run. That's a solid result jumping from 15 to 20. They always get easier when you have a few more under your belt. If you get in 4 more, you'll definitely feel much stronger.

From Tom K on Wed, Jan 29, 2020 at 08:12:52 from 47.206.60.114

That is a good long run! You are one steady paced dude.

From I Just Run on Wed, Jan 29, 2020 at 09:05:10 from 199.38.187.252

Thanks Jason and Tom, I do plan on at least 3 more 20-20+ mile runs. I'll know when I'm ready when mile 18 on a training run feels good! Thanks for the encouragement guys!

Callie bought me an entry into this Half Marathon for Christmas. We flew out a couple of day ago to visit her, her husband and a few other friends.

Callie invited another friend Lu Vo to run with us and help pace her to a 1:37:30 half marathon PR. She has not seemed to master the half marathon even though she easlily qualified for Boston this year. We were all excited to make this happen for her but unfortunatly it wasn't the day. The weather was pretty good at about 55 degrees, overcast with a light breeze. We started out with a very tight crowd and back further than we probably should have been and it kept us slowed down for the first mile or so. But after that, things opened up and we were able to run the paces as we wanted. All seemed to going well until about mile 7 where Callie started to struggle with her HR spiking and breathing labor. We pushed another half mile or so, talking about how she was feeling, and decided to scrap the PR idea and try and salvage the run. As she was just continally getting slower and slower I suggested a walk 10-15 seconds and then run at goal pace for as far as was comfortable and then repeat this walk run pattern until the end or until she felt better. I believe this kept her in the race and actually salvaged a total bonk as she started to feel much better on the last 2 miles. All in all it was a fun day. Callie was only about 15 seconds longer than her PR and we were just happy to run another race together....what a blessing!!!

(1 Warm-up mile and 1 Cool-down mile)

IJR, sorry to hear Callie had a rough go of it.

It's great that you get to occasionally train/race/run with your kid, though! That is really cool!

Congratulations on the race finish!

Sorry it didn't go as planned. That so fantastic that you are running Boston together though!

Still in California until Wednesday. I ran by myself today (actually with Kida, the dog) as Callie had a meeting to go to. Feeling fine after the race yesterday. Ran an easy progressive run with a few easy marathon pace miles.

rHit 70 miles last week! (But just now entered all the runs.) The next 2-3 weeks are going to be tough to get in the high mileage as I'm going on a 2 week Roping Competition Trip to Arizona.

Todays run was good. Progressive for 5 of the 7 with 2 faster miles thrown in the middle.

Didn't feel good at the first of the run but as it progressed I started to feel better. At the end I felt strong and good. Too bad they will probably cancel the Boston Marathon. I think I was going to be ready for a decent race.

I'm sorry to hear the Boston Marathon has been postponed (and probably cancelled) and especially for you and Callie who BQ'd and were accepted to run it together.

Tom... Me too. We are planning to run it in September, when they have it rescheduled, but training for it, through the summer in Texas, is going to be brutal...!!!

Good luck to you and Callie!
