Favorite Running Quotes:
1.
"Sooner or later the serious runner goes through a special, very personal experience that is unknown to most people.
Some call it euphoria. Others say it's a new kind of mystical experience that propels you into a elevated state of consciousness, a flash of joy.
A sense of floating as you run. This experience is unique to each of us, but when it happens, you break through a barrier that separates you from casual runners. Forever. And from that point on, there is no finish line. You run for your life. You begin to be addicted to what running gives you."
~Nike Poster
2. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
You’ve no doubt heard this. And you’ve probably recited it in your mind on a run or at the gym when you’re just beginning to get in shape. You have a goal in sight and this quote brings you back to the current moment.
But the problem is that many runners forget all of the steps between the first one and the goal. If your goal is to run under two hours for the half marathon then you need to be honest about all of the little steps to get to that goal.
You should have goals, but you should take it one step at a time. And you should be honest about the fact that you don’t know how many steps it will take to get there. ~ Vernon Gambetta
3. Human beings are made up of flesh, blood and a miracle fiber called COURAGE! ~ George Patton

I ran super EARLY with Janice Cook today. When I run with someone new, I'm always afraid I'll be too slow. I let her do most of the talking today and tried to keep up! It was cool and slighly sprinkling...so it was perfect.
I didn't sleep well last night. I'm getting a cold, so I had a stuffy/drippy nose, body aches and a sore throat. I really hope to get a nap today.

| I didn’t get home from cheering Melissa in the Salt Flats till 4:30am. So I didn’t get out to run until 12:00pm and it was 70’s. Ughhhh....so hot!! But Melissa won even though she barfed the entire way.

MCT
Early morning run with Janice. We were 10 seconds faster per mile today. My SIJ doesn’t like faster running. I need to figure this out or eventually I will be in trouble.
Legs felt good!

| Ran with Jeanine and Heather. TT: 44:13 AP: 8:48 ---8:23, 8:58, 8:33, 8:58, 9:04 (that last hill is such a beast!) I always like running with these ladies. They always look cute and I am the "old" mom. But they are kind and fast. I had some series shin splints after Wednesday's run with Janice. But I had been stretching and doing lots of calf raises. All felt good.
Ran 3 very easy miles when I got home.

I have mixed emotions about this run. I feel like I’ve stuck to my easy days EASY and my hard days HARD. Except today. I ran hard yesterday and should have run today easy. I started easy and finished too fast. Now my shins hurt. Ugh.....
Learn and do better.

| Met Kellie and Collette for our 8 mile loop. Definitely slower and a few walk breaks for Collette. But it was fun to catch up.
TT: 1:20:08 AP: 9:33
Took the kids up to the Julie Andrew's Meadow for a holiday hike. I would like to call this hike "The Trail of Tears". 4 miles - 1100 feet. I needed a nap after this adventure.

| 6 miles with Janice (MCT) and 6 miles on my own (100E). My solo miles were HARD. I just couldn't get my legs moving (it was really hilly and HOT).
TT: 1:51:10 AP: 9:16 Slightly slower than last week, but hillier. Off to field day at the elementary school :/
