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

| Manila Elementary to MCT - Suncrest - LP HWY Miles: 19.17 miles TT 1:31AP: 12.6 HR:144
I wanted to give Suncrest a try today. I'm still not wearing my cycling shoes so I knew I couldn't get out of the saddle which would make it harder. But I missed the turn off MCT and ran out of time to get all the way up. Not even sure if I could have made it all the way up....regardless, it was a good workout. My calves and shins have mellowed out a ton. Maybe I'll even try a trail later this week.

| Silo road TT: 45:03 AP: 10:30 HR: 160. 2 mile tempo
I had PT yesterday. I'm really grateful to have such a great PT who gives me hope! I asked him about increasing the number of days per I run. He said NO. He told me to follow the Run Less Run Faster App. I'm familiar with this book, but have always been under the impression that successful running comes lots and lots of aerobic miles.
But I'm not sure my body can do that right now (lots of aerobic miles). So I'm going try it....what have I got to lose?!? I put in an 11:00 mm into the app....but that was way too slow. Obviously, I've got to tinker with the times.
We went on the Timp Cave tour with the kids. 3 mile hike-1900 feet elevation.
I had to take a nap today!!

Tim and I went to Park City to celebrate his 40th birthday. We ran the PC Armstrong trail. Holy heck.....AMAZING!!!! It was so beyond beautiful. I can't express how much I loved it!! Not technical or crazy uphill! We should celebrate Tim's birthday every week if we can run trails like that!!
