Personal:

I decided to join to hold myself accountable for my training and because I love learning from others running experiences.  I just started running a little over a year ago and have a lot to learn.  I work fulltime as a Manager of Telecommunications for Intermountain Healthcare and go to school online through Weber State University.  If you want to know more check out my blog: www.runningfortrevor.blogspot.com

8 mile orchard loop with Jen.  We set a new CR of 56:54.  Jen & I had both done Speedwork yesterday so we had no intentions of moving fast but just gradually picked up the pace and ran the last 4 miles at sub 7.   6:58, 6:53, 6:47, 6:38.  We were talking up until about the last half mile and I feel like this was a really good workout on fatigued legs from yesterdays SW.  We were both completely trashed by the finish.  Doing a tempo the day after SW is not something I would normally do or recommend but every once in awhile I think it is okay to practice running hard on tired legs.  I added a slower 2 mile cooldown afterwards.  I will definitely be taking it super easy tomorrow.  Anyone up for a recovery jog? 

10 min foam rolling and lower body ST. 

PM:  3 miles nice & easy.  I was dreading this run all day for some reason but it felt great to shake my legs out. 8:20 pace

You two are speedy.

Nice job lady especially on fatigued legs - Arizona here you come!

From RAD on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 12:19:32 from 67.171.119.50

I don't know how you can get your legs moving like that in the cold!! Seriously. If you want a nice recovery run tomorrow come run with slow poke me. I promise I won't be running sub 7's! :)

I agree with Rad, if you are ever looking for a recovery run partner, let me know. :) That is a fast run. Nice!

AWESOME workout(s) Rachelle. SW and then tempo, you go girl!

From Andrea on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 13:26:02 from 72.37.171.52

Who is this Jen girl? You need to convince her to join the blog! Glad you have some great company for runs now.

From Lily on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 13:51:48 from 67.199.178.95

Sorry I couldn't make it this morning Rachelle. I was out late :(

Come run with me tomorrow at 6 The river trail is mostly clear!

From Lily on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 13:52:24 from 67.199.178.95

Andrea, Jen Hughes. She won hobble creek in 2011. Love her!

From Bam on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 14:39:11 from 89.126.28.24

That's great running over the two days and the fact that you felt ok during the tempo is a good sign at this stage of your training. Good stuff.

From Rachelle on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 15:11:33 from 199.190.170.30

Christie - AZ cannot come soon enough. I need some vitamin D in my life. :)

Rachel & Scott - I will run with you any day of the week. Nothing makes me happier than a nice slow chatty run.

Bec - thanks! I hope your enjoying the warmth of TX.

Andrea - she has 4 girls ages 5,4,3,2. I'm not sure how she even finds time to breath but I'll tell her to join the blog. :)

Lily - I'm in for tomorrow. We could do the riv trail or Jen's loop in Salem. But seriously I'm going to be slow.

Bam - thank you! After a pretty big hiatus from running fast it feels good to be doing workouts again.

From Matt Schreiber on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 15:24:54 from 66.17.102.185

Wow. Nice tempo Rachelle! You 2 tore up your course. :) You definitely deserve a bunch of slow miles after the last couple days.

From JulieC on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 15:55:08 from 70.103.189.14

U go girl :)

From Toby on Tue, Jan 08, 2013 at 18:45:19 from 199.101.229.6

Wowzer that is fast! You make it look so easy :). Way to go Rachelle!
