Personal: I've been running since high school (mid-1990s) and do pretty well when I'm focused on a goal. My main problem is running consistently when I'm NOT training for something specific. I'm an attorney, and I've been married to my husband, also a runner, for 5 1/2 years. We live in Phoenix, Arizona. We had a beautiful baby girl, Caroline, in August 2009. |

I only had time (and energy) for 5 miles today, but the run went well. It is a beautiful day and unseasonably warm. It got up to the mid-70s and was probably in the low to mid 60s during the run.
As most of you can probably tell, I am experiencing a little sag in motivation! Something always seems to come up! And, of course, we are going on vacation this weekend, so I won't be able to run (which is OK, because we will be SKIING!).
Total time: 47:28, average pace: 9:30. My pace stayed pretty constant throughout. | | Comments(7) |

I don't know if I could characterize these as easy miles, but they weren't any of the other categories either. Is there an in-between category?
Work is crazy, CRAZY! It's taking over my body, too. I started feeling some lower back pain about halfway through the run, but I pushed through it. I picked up a race t-shirt from a girl tonight who is about to run a marathon and is at about the same level as me. She lives near me too, so I mentioned training together once she recovers from her marathon, and she was interested. So I might have a running partner! That would definitely get me up in the mornings.

| Well, I didn't get in any running, but I got one heck of a workout: 16 ski runs! (I'm writing this after my return to AZ). We went to Telluride and skied in some of the best conditions I have ever experienced. We tore up the whole mountain, including several LONG, steep, and very bumpy runs. This is my 8th trip to Telluride, and I skied a lot of new runs that I have never done before. GREAT day! | | Add Comment |
