Training update: 127 days until the Austin Marathon

While I’ve posted a lot of info the last few days, I haven’t talked much about what’s next. That was intentional, as I wanted to take more time to digest last Sunday and take a break. After more time to think, to step back, I am happy with Sunday. I was disappointed with the result... Read more »

Taper time...a quick update

I was scarce last week because I was laying low, fighting off being sick. I thought I had it beat on Friday night and was planning for my long run on Saturday morning. But after a long night, when I finally got up, I felt queasy. So I decided to move the run to yesterday... Read more »

Ah, vacation...I've missed you.

I haven’t had an actual vacation in some 5 years. Last time we were able to get away, it was just Pam, K and I; we traveled up to Door County for a week and had a lot of fun! We’re back in Door County this week and have PG and my father-in-law along for... Read more »

I'm tired...

These last 5 days have kicked my butt. Between flying to Boson and back, running there, running 3 hours on Saturday…I’m worn out. Boston is awesome. I had so much fun despite only being there for a little over 24 hours. I got a solid 6-1/2 mile run in…holy crap it’s hilly there! I had... Read more »

Weekend preview...

This morning I got out for my 45:00 run and ran some drills…sprints, high knees, skipping and butt kicks. And keeping with run drill tradition, I ran into two women walking. And of course they asked what I was doing. Oh well…it’s a bit of a tradition now I suppose. I was moving a bit... Read more »

Healthy Hump Day- Recovery Week...

With my first half marathon of the year in the books, this week the focus is on recovery! Monday I had a short bike ride, gym yesterday and a 45:00 slow run later today. I’m surprised at how not sore I am. Outside of my back, that is. I’ve been foam rolling like a mad... Read more »

Big weekend ahead!

Big weekend ahead!
I finally feel back to normal. On top of a hot race and overdoing it, I fought being sick all week. But I’m back and ready to go! Coach Jen and I chatted a bit yesterday, adjusting the plan for this week. I was home with K yesterday, for day 2 of fever-boogaloo. Thankfully she... Read more »

Anyone get the license plate on that truck?

Apparently my race recap is incomplete. It took more out of me than I thought. I was a little achy yesterday and had some “plumbing issues”. I thought I was fine. I went to the gym over the lunch hour to spin yesterday. Coach Jen is having me ease back into things…and I really needed... Read more »
