This 12 felt harder than my 13 last week. It was 90 deg for half of it and I was pushing a little harder today and averaged an 8 min mile with all the hills (my first 2 were really slow). Sooo I'm getting better. My "slow" is getting better anyways. My "fast" has yet to be seen. I need to get my endurance up before I attempt that though. I ran from Toquerville to Hurricane where Jim picked me up. I went from feeling "I love to run so much" to "Oh man, 3 more miles!!!!". I need to get a good solid longer run to get my confidence up a little bit.
I ran in the mizuno waverunners today and really liked them - a bit heavy but my feet felt a lot better.
Man could i be building up any slower. I keep trying to add on more miles, but it always ends up the same at the end of the week. i guess it's good that I scaled back this week. hoping to hit a 14-15 miler at the end of the week, and maybe a 9 in the middle.
i really need to find people to run with! I'm at the point where I need people to push me a bit. My husband works such awful hours that it's hard to find people to run super early. And I can't go too far away to run with people cause Ivy won't take a bottle yet. ugh... |
