Confidence Booster
I was intimidated by the look of this one… 22 miles total with 2x (30 mins at marathon pace, 4:45 at tempo pace). Goal MP = 6:10s, goal tempo = 5:50. I haven’t yet been able to hit a longer marathon pace workout at that pace. Until yesterday!! Workout was: 4.5 mile WU1st MP: 6:12…
Nailed 4x1k, 2x1k, 4×200!
I’m pretty sure I smiled most of the entire workout. I feel like I’m back from the dead! Today’s workout: 4×1000 with 1 minute rest, 3:45 each (tempo pace). Then 2×1000 at 3:28, 3 mins rest. Then 4×200 at 38. I was able to do: 4x1000s in an average of about 3:42-3:43 each 2x1000s in…

Training and Life update!
Things have been a little crazy around here! I’ll try my best to catch up… Knee trouble? On Friday March 4th Nathan and I ran up to the Montessori School to pick up Greta. I needed a 6 mile run, and conveniently school is 3 miles away. We got there, dressed Greta and put on…
