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.

Lao-Tzu

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.

 

…and what I’d rather see you do is to get the goal out of mind completely, but rather focus on the process, not the outcome. -Jay Johnson Process orientation, not outcome orientation.

 

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 

 

4.   Find the courage to be patient.

My Garmin has been having a hard time these past two runs (maybe because of the HR monitor). The Garmin map of where I ran is way off.  And I know that my first mile couldn't be 9:11....I live at the bottom of a huge hill!!  I know this run is only 5.3 miles (not 5.6).  I need to do some internet research to fix it!!

Light dusting of snow and slippery in some spots.  12 degrees.

18 degrees and snowing. I slept in today to get the full effects of a "rest day". So I ran after my kids went to school.

The heart rate monitor I had been using was chaffing SO badly. So while I was picking up a new pair of Ravennas, I also got the new model of the Garmin heart rate monitor. WOW - what a difference. No chaffing. And the map section of the Garmin connect was correct (so was the mileage).

I think I'm starting to understand running by heart rate. I've read Phil Maffetone's stuff before, but now that I can see my heart rate while I run it makes more sense. It was dis-heartening to see my average heart rate today was 152 bpm and I was only running a 10:00/mile (and I need to be in the 8:20/mile for a BQ). And according to Phil's equation it should be a 138bpm. I still have time.

Stretching, foam roll and Gua Sha scraping on my lower legs.

I didn't sleep well last night as I was nervous about this LT test.   15 min warm up (4x30 sec stride) - 30 minute hard run - 15 minute cool down. Numbers don't lie and I really get to find out where I am fitness-wise.

Started with the 4x30 seconds.  I am very much a negative-split runner, so I just started to run and tried to push.  The last 10-15 minutes I pushed harder and was definitely in puke zone.

I was hammered by then end.  I jogged very slowly home.  Once I got in my house and looked at Garmin Connect, I realized my cool down was 7 minutes short.  I guess I ran the second half much faster than I had anticipated and turned around too soon.

I was running out of time this morning and had to pick it up the last few miles.  I could see my HR start to go up and it drove me nuts.  This HR running is hard....to go slow.

Listened to season 2 of the Seriel podcast.  Made it home on time just barely.

I met Kelli at Potato Hill to run the Corner Canyon trails. This didn't turn out as I had planned! Trail conditions were harsh and icy (my spikes helped, but I was sliding everywhere). There was construction, so we turned around and headed south. The south trail wasn't tracked out and we post-holed till we ran out of time. Such a bummer.....we ran these trails all winter last year. Too much snow this year. So do I need to do a long run later in the week and call today a hike? Ughhhhh.....

AM #2
The weather has been warmer and the mountains are getting slushy/icy for skiing.  I'm a snow snob!

So I headed up to Grove Creek for a hike.  It was a typical spring trail today - snow/ice and mud.  But the sun was shining and felt lovely!

Hip flexor was definitely bugging.  I scheduled a massage for Wednesday.

Longish run planned for tomorrow.

So I had a little ski accident a week ago and it turned out not to be so little.


MRI came back with an ACL tear, tibial plateau fracture, marrow contusion (I don't even know what that means), lots of bone bruising. 

Feeling sad and defeated......

I called Dr Cooley's office to see if they had any cancellations.  I was scheduled to meet with him on April 11...too long.  The receptionist asked if I could come tomorrow morning.  

WOW - tender mercy!

I met with Dr Cooley and he is as good as everyone says he is.  I have such a good feeling for him.  He confirmed the ACL tear and suggested surgery (which I already knew).  

Surgery scheduled for April 12.  SO many blessings!

My knee is feeling SO much better.  The swelling has gone down significantly and I was able to get on my spin bike for 20 minutes with NO pain.  Yeah!

Everything I've read about ACL reconstruction promotes pre-hab before surgery.  So I thought I would give it a try.

4 weeks post op from my ACL reconstruction.  All of my PT the first 3 weeks has been bending and straightening my knee.  My first day of PT was far more painful than the actual surgery.

Today (week 4) I got soft tissue work on the back of my knee to help straighten it.  And I was allowed in the gym.

I had PT on Wednesday.  Since I've started running, my old high hamstring tendonitis started to flair right back up.  The PT aide that I worked with is a pilates instructor as well and really helped me under true core strength which may help the hammie.  I'm ready and willing to learn.  But I'm tired of draining my HSA account.

However, I'm starting to wonder if I will really be able to run again.  Marathon and ultra run.  I'm not sure my body can handle it.  I'm definitely not turning the towel in yet.  But my goals and priorities may start to change.

While in Mexico last week, my SIL asked me how my recovery was going.  I told her about the above.  My son overheard me and said, "Mom don't give up yet."  One day at a time - one step at a time.

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.

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.

"Epic Wednesday Adventures" with Kelli and Rachel doing the Grove to Battle loop.  We made it up Grove Creek in good time, but I had never gone past Indian Springs before.  We went through the Sound of Music meadow, but took a wrong turn.  A 1:40 - 3 mile wrong turn.  I was starting to stress that I would run out of water and I was hitting a very LOW low.  I kinda wanted to curl up on the side of the trail and die.  It was HOT!!

Rachel was able to get us back to the right trail (BLESS HER) and I found a second wind.   And we got a ride back to our cars.  Bless the PG public service guy!

Alta to Brighton loop.  I was looking for a redemption run, but the loop was covered in 2-3 inches of snow.  No redemption.  I struggled more than I thought I would and ended up taking a GU around 2 hours.  I think the elevation and I didn't drink enough were the culprits.  I kept getting big chunks of snow stuck on my micro spikes.  It totally bugged.

Regardless, it was a beautiful with the sunshine and sparkling snow.

Earn Your Turkey 4 miler at the Orem Rec Center.  This race always drives me crazy in that it is SO old school and very bare bones.  No mile markers, no water--NOTHING!

But I was excited to race to see where I was fitness-wise.  Most of my training runs have been in the 9:30-10:00MM with a few mid 9's.  I started off solo and ended up catching my SIL.  We ran together until mile 3 and she took off.  I just didn't have that extra gear for lack of training/endurance.  I was in puke mode the entrie race and was really happy with my race considering the past year I've had.

I got frost bite on my thumb a few years ago.  The skin is very sensitive and can get infected very easy.  I had to have my thumb nail removed today.  It hurts and gloves won't fit over my bandage.  I'm in a pickle.

60 minutes on the step mill.  It felt lovely to get some cardio and sweat.  But I am liking all this strength training--I'm getting some arm muscle!  Chiropractor tomorrow to see if he can put my SI joint back in place!

My SI joint has been feeling better, so I thought I would try to run outside.  I was very nervous though.  I walked---ran very slow--and then finally got up to a semi-normal speed.  My low back still doesn't feel 100%, so I just focused on being relaxed.  As soon as I walked in the door, I started to stretch.  I'm planning on stretching all flippin day!!!

This is the best I've felt on a run since Thanksgiving.  Probably because it was a shorter distance and I haven't run a bunch this week.  I've been doing a lot of research on hip stuff and how it relates to the SI joint.  But there is a lot and I'm not even sure where to start.

Regardless, it felt good to run!  Family skied at Deer Valley.  I stayed in the lodge by the fire and cheered!

I tracked the pioneer cabin to the Taylors and its exactly .5 miles --3:47.  Now I have a bench mark!  Game on.

Back felt better, but not 100%.  I think it likes the shorter run.  Feeling skinny fat!

My plan was to do 5/6 miles, but I was feeling good.  Yeah!  It was slow, but my SI joint and hip flexor were ok.  

No lifting.  I left super early to get back for all the cousins sleeping at my house.  I may have crawled back into a warm bed for awhile.

**.5 sprint to finish.  I was tired by the end and didn't have another gear.

It was very cold and had frozen eye lashes.  Hip flexor was very tired by the end.

2016 was a good year except for running.  I'm ready to progress and work hard.
