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've stuck with my 40 miles/week and don't have plans to increase it. I've felt very creaky and just off. My left foot has been bugging. I've done a lot of scraping and ice. I think the tendons are just stressed. At least I hope so. This morning was just alright. I felt like my form was off. Form has always been a struggle for me. It is done and over. I was WAY over dressed this morning. I did use my turkey coupon for my win on Saturday...it was worth $12.44. Sweet! | |

| TT: 1:07:00 AP: 9:25 I decided to run on the home TM ....the wind just didn't sounds appealing! Easy miles. My SIL is always reading a book on her iPad while she runs, so I decided to give it a try this morning. It definitely made the time go by faster, but I had to hold onto the side while I scrolled through the pages. It took some coordination :) 3x 10/side step ups on bench with weight 15 hamstring curls with ball B6 60/60/60 plank Pikes with ball-I'm not very good at these, but they did seem to help stretch out the tops of my feet 20 dips Quick stretch | |

After my workout on Tuesday morning, I sat down to read with my daughter. We read for a long time. When I stood up, I couldn't put any weight onto my foot. Honestly, it felt like it was broken. It was a bit achy on Tuesday's run, but nothing crazy.
I couldn't put pressure on it all day. This totally stressed me out. I've been working so hard since May to be slow and smart with my training. I called my PT was able to get in on Tuesday afternoon. He said that I had some serious tendonitis in my Peroneal Brevis. It felt a smidge better after he worked on it. He told me to modify my workouts by adding more cross training.

My foot was a bit achy when I first got on the TM, but it did feel better after awhile. I went to the PT again this morning. Though it doesn't feel like it is broken, it is still very sore. I know that if I don't chill for awhile this could turn into a tear or a SF. I'm going back to the PT on Saturday morning and he's going to watch me do my running workout and film me again.
It is only December and I still have time.

| I went to my PT again this morning. He had me do 20 minutes hard on the bike as a warm up. Then I did 6 miles on the TM. I had to stop after each mile and walk 1 minute. He filmed me running durning the last mile while I was tired. He said my cadence, trunk rotation and arm placement were good, but my hip internal hip rotators were weak. The weak hips were bringing my foot/ankle down funny. He showed me an exercise to help strengthen it. We'll see. But my foot did feel a lot better on this run. We took our kids up to the Utah Food Bank today. Then we ate lunch at Freebirds. Yummy! This chain was down in Texas and we used to go there all the time. | |
