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

8 miles at CC—TT: 1:32:56 AP: 11:37 Elevation: 1437 Ran the new loop I found last week. It was COLD—19 degrees. It took a few miles to be able to feel my feet. I’ve been cold since.

Lifted weights between kids going to school. Ran with Karen. Super fun to catch up and run by her house.
PM: lots of walking at the Lower Lights Concert . Hip flexor bugging :/

Blah....good morning Monday :/. On the home TM because the air is so horrible. And because I’m lazy. Hip flexor is buggy.

Meet Rachel to do Grove-Baldy-Battle. I knew my legs would be heavy. They did alright the first few miles (to the bench miles were 20:00 and 22:29). But once we started to climb Baldy, they got REALLY tired. And heavy. And I just wanted to be done.
But the view on the top of Baldy was gorgeous and out of the inversion. I hate coming down Battle Creek. Yuck!
I’m mentally glad to have that done. I could run a marathon faster than I did today. But it was perfect training for Buffalo—2 back to back long HARD runs. And I’m still alive.
Strength training before

Grateful to have made it through another workout. Strength training and stretching after.

I decided to do this run on the home TM. I wasn’t super excited about running in the dark and cold alone. Then I would have had to do a full outfit change (from winter to shorts and a tank). I guess I was just lazy. Hip felt great once I warmed up.
Netflix binge watching.

These were very ugly. My feet were dragging and hitting rocks. It was very windy. My hip flexor was really bugging. Ho hum.

| Glute warm up
Easy 3 miles on the home TM. Hip felt way better after massage and acupuncture yesterday. After lots of Dr Google research (hip surgery —psoas—hip flexor), I think I need to activate my psoas and glutes before I run. Obviously strengthen them too. Bodies are amazing in how they work, how everything is connected and how they can heal.
Skied all day at Snowbird. So good for my hips. But I’m a really slow skier.....I can keep up with the 4-5 year olds.

It was very warm and I shed by jacket quickly (40's). It's been awhile since I've run a straight 10 miles (not broken up between getting kids off to school) and doing it outside. I'm very sore :/
Lots of foam rolling and stretching
