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

| Out and back to round about TT: 1:09:00 AP: 8:43 10:01, 9:24, 9:05, 8:52, 8:32, 8:02, 7:54, 7:40 It was definitely colder this morning, but I didn't feel cold thanks to my warm clothes (I think I need to buy more!!). It took me awhile to get moving and get into a comfortable groove. After a looong warmup, I decided to push the pace on the way. It felt forced and not very fluid. I am going to have a small jump in mileage this week....40 miles!! I hope to stay there until mid December and make sure that it feels comfortable. And no injuries! | |

AP: 9:34...nice recovery run
I had to run on the home TM because hubby was out of town. It definitely wasn't as bad as last time and I didn't have as many aches after. I think I need to relearn how to run properly on it. One of the many bad things about running on a TM, it having to blow my nose all the time. I know it is gross, but I find snot rockets way more convenient when I run on the road. I went through a half a box of kleenex this morning.
3x
walking lunges
10 ball squats
60 sec plank LLL
1x (ran out of time to finish the other 2 sets)
20 push ups
50 calf raises
Quick stretch and foam roll
I had to order two more pair of running shoes last night. I'm going through them faster than I'm going through GU's right now. | |

| TT: 1:09:00 AP: 8:37 Workout on the home TM Warm up: 3 miles at 9:31 4 mile tempo: 2 miles at 8:27, 1 mile at 8:13, and the last mile I kept bumping the speed up. Cool down: 1 mile at 8:34 When I do tempo runs on the road, I feel like I can go a lot faster. But today, I felt maxed out on the TM. Even the 9:31 warm up felt harder than running on the road. Though it wasn't as fast as a road run, it was still a good effort. This TM running is throwing me for a loop! I have a daughter who is also giving me a run for my money. It is a good thing I love her cause I don't really like her right now. | |

| TT: 1:09:00 AP: 10:00 9:41, 9:42, 10:03, 10:03, 9:59, 10:11, 9:16 I met up with Jeanine and Audrey this morning for an easy run. Jeanine just ran SGM and has started over with her training since she just had a baby. This mornings run was painfully slow. Audrey was breathing so hard and I could tell she was struggling. I don't think she runs a lot in between our runs together. Jeanine was fine. We had a good conversation though and it was really warm! I think will invite Audrey on shorter runs or run a few miles before I meet her. I'm not sure she can handle these longer runs yet. A for effort though and getting her out the door.

| I met my SIL up Provo Canyon this morning. She is fast and knew she would push me hard from the start. I did this run back on October 10 alone and was anxious to see if there was improvement since then.
The run up the canyon seemed to take forever and I felt the incline. I took a GU at mile 5. I went to start my watch again and it had lost satellite and I couldn't get it going. I was totally frustrated because I wanted to compare splits from the last time I did this run. So I reset the whole thing, but it took 2.5/3 miles to get going again. So I estimated on those missed mile splits. Grrrrr.....
I felt good on this run, but I could tell I was working hard. I was definitely breathing hard by the end and my legs were tired. It was windy up there today!

When I got home, I changed clothes and headed downstairs. I was freezing so it felt good to get moving and warm up. My arms are very sore now. This is the end of my 3 week cycle and will start my rest week on Monday. I'm still feeling really good about how my training is going. I didn't have any major aches this week and count that as a blessing.

10 side to side lunges (funny...whenever I do the first set of these, my hips and knees always pop....and they always feel better after!)

15 supermans
10 front row (not side row)
10 shoulder cross over
10 front raise
