20/10-01/11: Zombies Run! App 2016 Fall Virtual Run1 -
I never had a chance yesterday, but here is the car I got for my 3 year runniversary. Well, I was going to get a new car whether or not it was a runniversary. My old Saturn was falling apart and giving me transmission problems. The new car is a 2005 Toyota Camry XLE. It's a V6 with leather interior and sunroof. Very sporty.

Still in rest mode as my quad pain is slowly subsiding but my calves are aching hard today. Given the aches, pains, and hobbling I was doing around Chicago yesterday (vs. fellow competitors in the airport, museum, finish line, etc..), I think I may hold off on doing full marathons in racing flats as the lightness is nice, but the recovery seems slower.
May try a pull buoy aided (no legs) swim today so I don't fall too far behind on swimming training, and maybe a bike tomorrow, but no recovery running planned until at least Friday. Got in 12,000 steps (navigating the city/museums/old office/airport), which probably didn't help much as well.
Oddly enough, got on the scale this morning, and noticed I was about 10lb heavier than a week ago (before starting my carbo-load), but suspect the few flights, carbo load, swelling in my legs from the recovery, and retained water are probably keeping me out of equilibrium for a few days. From a calorie net standpoint, I'm guessing I'll come out of this up about 3lb, but I'll check again in a few days. Still, if I ended up running the race 8lb heaver than my target weight and 2lb heavier than Pittsburgh it gives me a bit more hope on my next one if I can (sustainably) get down to a better racing weight.
10/1 - 5 miles (w. 5x800s @ 6:00 pace)

Now that I'm back to my PC, and have caught up on a few hundred posts:
@kristinegift - Congrads on the alum win for the college 5K and more importantly your even pacing!
@ddmom0811 - It'll be another day or two before I hit up the bike, but hope the debris isn't too bad here across the state. Beach is covered with seaweed and has eroded a bit, but otherwise neighborhood is mostly unscathed now that I'm back.
@mnlittlefinn - Thanks for the support and continued well wishes! Having friends, recognizable landmarks, and a familiar route all helps with a full marathon, and I'm glad I did one in my hometown as my first. 15 weeks is a perfect gap between a HM and your first full, as most training plans have you complete a HM as part of the M cycle (albeit closer to 8-10 weeks apart). No strong opinions on separate plans vs. consolidated plan.
@mobycarp - Ended up tracking my few Kona teammates online and I think each of them except one looked at the race as more of a victory lap as 3/4 had qualified recently (Boulder & Vineman) and were about 1-2 hours slower than their qualifying races. Still, they all seemed to love it, and our tri-team captain who qualified a year back at Florida had a great race as he was much better rested. I hope your recovery continues and your body progresses so you can get back to running and enjoying it. If a BQ-10 isn't good enough for Boston next year, I'm giving up.
@ereck44 - Congrads on your PR. After racing 2+ hours, I'm shocked I can get up after sitting down, but at least can enjoy catching other finishers. Late in races, I'll usually just go by my heart rate to gauge effort, and it seems that every time a body part twinges, I get paranoid it'll shut down and leave me hobbling to the finish.
@orphia - Glad you enjoyed trail running. I do lots of well marked paths, but whenever I try less well marked paths, or do some hashing, I keep on having too many close calls to falls to want to make it a regular thing. Still, if you can find some well maintained trails, it'll definitely reduce the pounding your legs experience.
@respectthekitty - Thanks for the pre-race well wishes. Weather was absolutely incredible for the race and my lungs didn't burn either as it was just warm enough. Didn't even need to start dunking water until late in the race as the wind helped, as did the drier air.
@katharmonic - Congrads on your HM, especially squeaking under your goal time! Always great when you have enough in the tank to kick hard at the end. My quads are still hurting, but it usually takes about 3-4 days for soreness to subside after marathons.
@adrianchr29 - Huge congrads on your HM. Loved reading the race report, and your pacing (and consistency) was amazing. Funny reading about the concerned grandmother! Glad you had a friend to push you regardless of the 7 seconds. It has been awesome reading about your improvements here over the past few months and I think you definitely have the ability to tackle something bigger in the spring if you can manage the winter training.
@cljoe7- I should have DVRed the broadcast! Didn't realize it was televised.
And a big thanks for the kudos - @_nikkiwolf_ @louubelle16 @skippygirlsmom @lporter229 @stoshew71 @jodilynnsanders5104 @untermrad @elise4270 (you'll get back soon) @honunui

Today's notes: I was not feeling it this morning when I got up to run, but running is also my stress relief, and I NEEDED that. Took the little guy to the ER last night, he had a high fever and was puking (fever probably spiked because of a shower though). He ended up with a diagnosis of respiratory, ear and urinary infections, poor little man. He got his first IV last night, and was looking/feeling much better by the time we went home. I on the other hand was totally fried.
When the alarm went off at 0500 this morning, I was a zombie getting out of bed and running. did my 4 miles at 10:16 pace with an average HR of 150. A little high, but I had a headwind the whole back half of the run, and my HR was 151-158 range during those last 2 miles.1 -
Back to running after a 12-month hiatus and 30 lb gain. Modest goal for the month of October --> 20KM

I thought about getting some, but the ones I tried on in the store were either loose and slipping down to my wrists if I swang my arms back and forth a bit, or the "compression" kind which tried to cut off all blood circulation to my hands. Well, maybe not quite, but they were defenitely too tight to feel comfortable.
@_nikkiwolf_ I actually bought 2 pair, and both fit great. Although I have some good muscle definition in my arms, they are quite thin. I wore the Nike arm warmers on Saturday, and they didn't slip down nor feel too tight.
Nike Arm Warmers in Size XS/Small:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B019JNQOVC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Saucony Drylete Arm Warmers, Size Small
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IF2WTXQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I haven't ran with the Sauconys yet, but they appear to fit well. The Nike warmers are a little shorter, but they can partially cover your hands with a thumb hole. The Saucony Warmers are a bit longer. Both are made from a dry fit type material. I really liked them because I tend to get cold easily, yet they kept my upper arms uncovered where I tend to get hot. Two thumbs up from me!

On my way to 100!

No problems waking up for my run this morning. The going was a bit slow, though. My legs were still a bit tight as I walked 4 miles and climbed the stairs at work twice (18 floors) yesterday (hell of a rest day!). Today I did my 5.3 mile loop, taking care to avoid the wooded area of the Prairie Path as it was still dark when I left at 6:30 am.
This was my first run with my new pepper spray that arrived yesterday. It's got a Velcro strap so you can hold it in your hand while you run. It was fine, I didn't have any issues with something attached to my hand. It made me feel a wee bit safer.

@RespectTheKitty I have that same pepper spray...I love it, and always bring it with me when I'm running alone. I don't even notice it's there. You just never know, and it's better to be safe.1 -
@Stoshew71 Nice ride! I'll say I'm spoiled on the leather seats. I invested in one of the Orange Mud seat covers/towels/changing towel for for post run slippery sweaty seat legs.2

My hamstring behind my right knee has been a bit tight lately so still taking it easy. I wish it was socially acceptable to do my hamstring stretches at work. LOL! No running today, but Body Pump and riding the stationary bike are on the agenda for this evening.1 -

Hey
10/01 6.5 miles
10/07 3.1 miles
10/10 13.1 miles Half marathon PB!!
I'll add my race report to the many others floating around that I haven't had chance to read, kudos to all of you.
After not having a great build up after twisting my knee a few weeks before the race, and a friend I was running with not managing to to get much training in with a bad cold we weren't aiming to beat the previous time of 2:59:05 for our half we were aiming just to finish.
I've got to say Oxford have managed to put on an amazing half marathon, great atmosphere around the course, thought it was really well set up. We were setting out to run 5k then walk 0.5k just to keep injuries at bay but we were feeling good and took our first walking break at 7k going faster than planned but feeling good, our next walking break was at 14.5k for just over the half kilometre this time but still in fairly good shape compared to Edinburgh last year, at this point we knew we'd definitely come in at below our previous half even run walking the rest. Had a little walk just before we got into where the main crowds were for the last mile and just kept the legs ticking over crossing the line together in 2:53:49 taking over 5 minutes off our previous time. Very pretty and flat course I'd definitely recommend to anyone in the UK (or abroad if they fancy the travel). I'm just glad I didn't get overtaken by the minion although I did get beaten by the Honey monster.
The best thing is the knee is no worse than it was before the race so just going to take the rest seriously this week with gentle walks, stretching and maybe a swim to keep me ticking over and get my knee back to 100% before I start doing anything too stressful on it.

Another mile for me today so 12 for the month so far.
19 miles to go.3 -
Tried to get more sleep last night. 5 hours. Sigh. I woke up okay but postponed running since I ran late last night and worked hard. So maybe right after work or maybe around 7pm again I'll run. Not sure. It'll be warm but low humidity after work. Hmmm....
@RespectTheKitty I've had pepper spray in my amazon cart since my last dog incident but haven't ordered. Really need to get that done since running in the dark is my thing now :-p
@zmcgrandles Congrats on your HM
and @luluinca Great job on that 5k!
@stoshew71 Enjoy the new ride!
@MNLittleFinn Poor little guy
Hope he's well soon.
Oh, and apparently according to Garmin, my second to last interval last night my cadence was 27 and stride length 7.81m :-D

Holy cow, I finally got through all the posts I missed over the weekend! lol.
My last 2 runs, 4 miles on Saturday and 8 mile long run yesterday. The Saturday run I did after Zumba at the gym, but went running outside because the dreadmill is boring. Checked back into the gym afterwards to shower and get my stuff. Yesterday I was just tired, sluggish, and achy on my run. Probably partly from all the standing/super slow walking I did on Sunday at the New York Comic Con (hence my new profile pic and also the reason my long run happened yesterday rather than Sunday). Still got the miles in though, although I was beat by the end.
And acorn season has arrived! I forgot about that before heading out to my run yesterday on a trail. Added an extra element of stress and excitement trying to make sure I didn't sprain an ankle slipping on one of the buggers, lol. Had a couple close calls, ugh.

200+ posts to catch up on..YIKES!
I had three runs over the weekend, all pain free!
10/07 - 4.6 miles with Kody
10/08 - 5.3 miles with Kody, on the trails
10/09 - 5.0 miles with Kody
10/10 - 3.0 mile walk with Kody
Total for October - 14.9 Miles
I'm thrilled to be running pain free. I've decided I'm going keep the runs in the 5+ range until mid November and then start ramping up from there towards my ultra. I have two hunting trips and a trip to see my daughter between now and then so I won't be getting full mileage anyway. I just want to make sure my calf is good before the ramp up to 50K.
Some pix from my trail run Saturday. Kody had a great time!
@MobyCarp sorry to see your continued problems getting your run back, but it does sound like you're making some progress. I returned a pair of my ASICS Gel Nimbus on a warranty claim, even told ASICS that they had 250 miles on them, and they still replaced them.5 -

@KatieJane83 Years ago, I was at a job training and as several of us were crossing the parking lot I was bringing up the rear and wiped out on an acorn! I popped up from the ground so fast and acted like nothing happened! LOL! As far as I know, no one ever knew I went down. Whew!
@7lenny7 Love the doggie pics! Frame-worthy

Today's notes gimp report – PT today. The aches had migrated from the Achilles tendon to the outside of the upper ankle, with a bonus ache in the shin when I run a bit. The PT says this is all related to the underlying Achilles issue, with a possible addition of some underconditioning contributing to the shin. The way I'm getting better is a good sign, and she relates well to the mental issue of thinking I should be able to do a lot more than I physically can. I mentioned that Saturday shouldn't be a big deal, it's only 15K and I could just take it easy running 7 minute miles; she feigned being ready to back-hand me upside the head.
The PT didn't bat an eye when I said I might test running a quarter mile today (after admitting that I probably can't really do a 2 mile easy warmup just yet). So I came home and set out to see how that would go. Had a second thought. There is a line of fire hydrants on my street that I've used as distance markers for strides. The distance between hydrants is variable, but probably somewhere between 100 and 150 meters in most cases. So I set out to run easy intervals of the distance between hydrants, with walking recovery on the way back. The thought here was, whenever my body said "enough" I'd be fairly close to my driveway.
Ended up doing 3 easy running intervals, of 45, 51, and 45 seconds. Kept the Garmin on for the last trip back, and the total distance was 0.55 miles; so I figure I actually ran a bit over a quarter mile, though in 3 pieces. I was rewarded with an aching ankle and shin, which faded as I sat at the computer and looked at the stock market.
The bad news is, I'm not ready to run even a half mile just yet. The good news is, I was able to run far enough to be worth measuring, even though I wasn't able to run far enough to get my HR out of Zone 1. Right now, I'm not feeling any after-effects at all; I think I'll go for about a 3 mile walk in a bit, because 7 minutes of run/walk intervals just isn't enough activity for the day.
The 15K on Saturday will have to be a DNS. I'll still go to packet pickup because I get a long sleeve tech shirt, and I don't have enough of them for when I'm healthy during the season they're appropriate. I have not yet given up on the 5K a week from Saturday, but it wouldn't be a total shock if I had to DNS that one, too.

Today I was a little more sore than yesterday, but still feeling really good considering. I got up a bit early and did some stretching and light core work at home before taking all the kids to school. I headed out for a easy recovery run before going in to work. Legs felt good and there was really no pain anywhere, a little tightness in the the hamstrings but nothing that had me concerned. Probably do another couple days of easy recovery paced runs until the legs feel completely back to normal before doing anything longer than 3-4 miles. Hopefully by this weekend I can do a 8-10 mile long run
I had some time last night to review all my data from the marathon, and look at the results that were posted. Although I wasn't able to run the sub 4 hr goal pace due to some hip issues I was able to get fairly close without over doing it and re-aggravating things. I ran my slowest marathon half way split at 2:02:50 and was in 233rd place over 495 overall, previous marathon were faster with worse overall finishes. Our race has a dual start half and full that splits about 6 miles in so it was fairly crowded at the start with over 2k people. I had several people that I chatted with during that part of the course to pass the time so the miles seemed to fly by. At the split it got a bit lonely out there. I could only see about 4-5 people in front of me, and it took a bit of time to finally catch one of them. Once I finally got up to her about 10 miles in she was beginning to fad a bit and said she was going to slow down some, which sucked because i really want to run with someone through about mile 14 when the half and the full came back together and I had to start dodging walkers. I really couldn't tell how many other marathon runners I was passing during miles 14 - 18 because you had to concentrate on weaving through the walkers. At Mile 20 my time was 3:08:xx, for some reason my time didn't register at the mat but that is roughly what I remember. I was is about 213th so i had passed 20 runners, with only 1 runner at about mile 15 passing me, who ended up running a 7 minute negative split. I still never had found anyone who was running at or near my pace to run any length with. I guess running all my long runs this summer solo payed off. I began to pass more and more people who were starting to hit that wall at about 21-22 miles and my pace was off just slightly but i was still running fairly comfortable. I ended up 184th overall and 26/51 in age group. It was nice to finally have a good marathon experience without having any issues with cramping or wanting to shoot myself to end the pain. Every run i've looked at on Strava or Garmin Connect had the distance at 26.5-26.6. I know i tried to run as straight as possible but was consistent in losing .03-.05 every mile, which added up to an additional 3 minutes on my overall time.
If anyone is really wanting a good training plan I'd highly recommend Pete Pfitzinger Advanced Marathoning. I did the 18/70 plan which was probably a bit of a stretch on total mileage I was comfortable with. For a mid pack runner it was probably overkill, but I did have the best finish i could have asked for and feel like i was very prepared for the distance. During the guts of the plan I was running 10-12 hours a week. You'd need a base of 55 miles a week to start which is what some beginner and intermediate plans peak at. There is also a 18/55 plan that would have probably done the same thing with a few less hours a week of running which I might do over the winter when time is more of a premium for me.8
