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’m not huge fan of running on my TM, but I was nervous about the ice in the dark :/. Took 3 miles to warm up my hip, felt ok...out of shape.

| I went to a new PT today to get a set of fresh eyes on my running/injury. He did a gait analysis and found several issues...right knee collapsing into left knee...no glute strength.
Feeling hopeful.

5 mile warm up—2-3 mile tempo @8:10-8:20 (8:14 & 8:17)—cool down till hit 9 miles
I felt soooooo much better on this run than I have in weeks hip wise! I felt VERY out of shape however. I planned on doing 3 mile tempo, but was DONE at 2 miles. I was breathing SO heavy and my heart rate was crazy high. I’m not even discouraged though because I felt SO much better.
On the warm up, I set my Garmin screen to HR to kee the pace slow. I realized that I put my watch over my shirt which messes with the reading. Switched it around mile 3.

3 mile warm up-4 mile tempo @mp (8:40-8:50)-4 minute test interval-2 miles @ HMP (8:20-8:30) -cooldown till hit 11 miles.
I slept in and waited till all my kids went to school. It would be sunny and I could see ice. Warm up was ok....breathing hard. 4 mile tempo was ok (8:55, 8:45, 8:46, 8:35).
I was planning on taking a GU during the 4 minute test, but just pulling it out of my pack made me nauseous. Skipped it.
HMP tempo flopped. I had NO energy or 2nd gear. I stopped, had a self pity moment and then just jogged home. I felt pretty down all day about the workout. Running isn’t super fun right.
40 minutes of weight training.

YES!!!!!!!
The first 5 miles were hilly, extremely icy, and there was a strong headwind. I would hop on/off the grass to keep from wiping out.
Once the sun came out and the ice lessened, I picked up speed. I even held back a little. I didn’t hit the full 8 miles of tempo, I feel VERY good about this run. I was FINALLY able to shift into that next gear!!!!!!
I used Tailwind for fuel. I really like it, but I had pee.
Hip was tight the first few miles, but warmed up just fine!
