December 2016 Running Challenge

@MNLittleFinn - I'd think 15 lbs. would be way too light to feel a benefit from kettlebell swings. For reference, right now I do Turkish get-ups with a 35 lb. kettlebell, and that's a bit challenging. 30 lbs would be routine for TGUs, and 25 lbs. would feel easy. I do swings with 40 lb. KB. Could use 45 lb., but I typically want to transition directly from swings to snatches, and 45 lbs. is too aggressive for me and KB snatches right now. I probably could swing a 55 lb. kettlebell, but 45 is the heaviest I own.
@lissadecker - Pacing can get easier with practice, but individual experiences on how quickly it gets easier vary widely. I learned to hold a steady pace by first, running with a pace leader; later, seeking to keep my Garmin close to the desired current pace. Over time, I learned what easy, T (as in "threshold"), I (as in "interval"), and R (as in "repeat") should feel like; I still struggle with MP (as in "marathon pace.") But if I watch my Garmin, I can be the pace leader at a nominal pace of 8:30 or 8:00 per mile and bring the group in reasonably close to target pace. Two and a half years ago, the only way I could hold a steady 8:30 or 8:00 pace was following an experienced pace leader.0 -
@MobyCarp that's why I'm thinking about putting my 12kg bell in my truck for those days. The 15# felt like nothing. My 12kg is about as big as I can handle right now.0

Today's notes – I didn't run very far yesterday, and it was a bit slower than I would run solo because I was chatting with my roommate. Then I had an awful lot of sitting time getting home from 62º F (17º C) in Tallahassee to 28º F (-2º C) and snowing in Rochester. The landing on a snow-covered runway was, um, interesting.
Between the late flight and the weather, I didn't get to bed until almost 2 AM. Of course, the cat had been lonely and wouldn't stand for me sleeping too late; so I was up at 7, with less than 5 hours of sleep. The nice thing about being retired was I could wait till 10 to shovel the driveway. Then I had a nap, and ended up getting out for a run some time past 3 PM. At that point, it was 37º F (3º C), with wet pavement and snow covered grass and sidewalks. The streets were well cleared, so I felt okay running in road shoes.
Set out to run at least 7 miles, and the recovering Achilles let me get 10 in. Yesterday was pretty close to a rest day, and Saturday was more like a tempo workout than a long run, so doing a long run today fit in pretty well. And I was able to run far enough to call it a long run! This is both the longest continual distance and the longest continual time I've run since injury. That's an ego boost, and now I'm fairly confident I'll be able to run 13 miles for the Winter Warrior Half in January.
I'm feeling good enough that I'm about 80% decided to sign up for the Reindeer Run 5K next Saturday. I'll pay a bit more for registering late, and they may be out of antlers and/or shirts; but I have enough cotton race shirts, and I have antlers from running it in prior years. It's fun, and the toy-themed trophies are cute. (Toy-themed because the race is run to benefit the Strong Museum of Play.) Of course, to get a toy-themed trophy I have to place in my age group; but I don't expect the 60 year old guys who were faster than me last Saturday to show up for Reindeer Run next Saturday.

Good plan. 12kg is heavy enough to learn swings and snatches, and probably any other dynamic KB moves your aunt throws at you.0 -

We got ~7" of snow over the last 36 hours but I was still able to get in three lovely, snowy miles this afternoon. The good news is that running over ice/snow is great for cadence (which I'm actively working to increase!) but not so great for pace haha. Everything was so beautiful out by the lake today though so I didn't mind taking it a little slower.
I’m so grateful that I get to live and run in such a beautiful city as Chicago!
Thanks @juliet3455 , @7lenny7 , and @ddmom0811 for the congratulations! I still have 1-2 years of thesis research left before I actually get my PhD but at least the coursework is done now and I can focus on the thesis itself
I love how blue this pic is! It's been gray here a lot which makes me feel blah. Awesome job on the snow running!2 -

Actually looks like the rest of the week could be on the dreadmill (high of -2 on Thursday)....only day with a projected high above 0F is Friday, and that's an inside/gym day anyway...though I may run my 12 miler on Saturday outside...the thought of 2 hours on a treadmill sounds awful....If I can get some REALLY good tights first, projected high is -5
I don't think that's wimpy at all.0 -

4 miles in 39:50 (9:58 pace) today on the dreamill! It actually wasn't so bad once I got into a groove after the first mile or so. I really wanted to up my pace, but I let myself go fast for one song and then made myself slow. My dad and I go to the same gym and we usually end up there at the same time when I go. That happened today as well, so we ran on treadmills next to each other. Unfortunately, I forgot my inhaler so I had a few coughing fits afterward but luckily that didn't last too long.1 -

@HonuNui - I love sea slugs! They are so beautiful when they move through the water! That is the biggest one I have ever seen though!
@Virkati - welcome back to the world of runners! We have missed you!
@bmelb1- if you are in the US you might check out REI. They have lots of different kinds of headgear. Also Buff makes the 'tubes' similar to the ones @juliet3455 mentioned in all kinds of fabrics. They are intended to be worn differently depending on the conditions and what you need at the moment - you can wear them as headgear, sweat/headbands or around your neck to keep warm. They are also available online.
@7lenny7 - love your snowy scene and the Christmas tree run! That is pretty awesome!
@lporter229 - thanks for the reminder on hydration!
@dkabambe - that is hilarious about your running app!
@kristinegift - Congratulations on your new car!
@ariceroni - beautiful picture but it still looks awfully cold!
I had a great little run this afternoon after not feeling well this morning. I hadn't run all weekend either so in a fit of stress I headed out this afternoon and it was So Good! It was pretty cool out (low 60s and overcast) and I pretty much had the trail all to myself. I hadn't intended to go quite so fast or so far but it felt so great I had a hard time slowing it down. Besides my HR averaged only 105 and only got up to 123. When I got home (at 4.5 miles) I realized I had forgotten to pick up Hobbes' poop bag and of course he didn't remind me so I had to run back to get it.
I only have 2 races scheduled in the next few months and one of those is this weekend. I am thinking about signing up for San Francisco (1st Half) and running over the Golden Gate bridge again. It isn't until July though so I may also look for a spring race.
There is no way I will hit my 1500 mile goal for the year but I will make 1200 miles this week and if I stay on track for my goal this month I will pass 2000KMs for the year - double the MapMyRun challenge I an in!

A very dark, very foggy, very rural 6 miles for a group run this morning. I haven't done this route in ages, but because it's so dark and there's construction near the tow path, we only do the back half (read; the hilliest parts) and do an out and back. The first half was torture, the second half was surprisingly hard trying not to fly downhill and break a leg. Great way to start the day though!
Look at that hill!! First two miles had almost 270 feet of gain, according to Strava.

My first road bike will be ready on Friday, I'm so looking forward to it! I moved to a different country and I'm missing my wonderful parks, scenarios for runs are quite boring and ground is flat here, on the contrary there are a milion beautiful places to cycle. Plus I'm concerned one day I'll pay the price of running a lot everyday, so I want to do some cross training
Awesome! What kind of bike? Did you get a fitting? Here in Florida it is a big thing to get your bike fitted by a person who has been to fitting classes and knows all about it. The guy that did mine measured all these angles and lengths of arms/legs/stride/ who knows what else. I love my bike! It fits me perfectly. He had to change out the stem and handlebars, which sounds expensive but it really wasn't. Something about the width of my shoulders and my reach, IDK. I think you will love mixing up the two sports. I thought I was going to be amazing biking because of all my running (which is nothing compared to your distance), but it turns out, it uses different muscles and it took quite a while for me to get really fast. And at first, I kept getting weird pains after biking. I used the foam roller a lot on my IT band at first. Now the two sports just seem to complement each other. Good luck!
The other thing that can be difficult is getting a saddle that doesn't make you sore. Yeah, saddle sores are a real thing. Both my husband and I have gotten them.... no fun! I tried out about 5 expensive saddles (just borrowed from the store) and couldn't find any I liked. Then my cousin gave me a $30 saddle and I love it. Been using it for over a year and no problems. For short rides most saddles will do, but once you start doing 50+ miles the saddle is really important.
Pretty much this one

I went to a friend of my uncle, so a person I can trust as I'm completely ignorant about cycling (and that's where the fun will begin!)
Got measured and bike will be set up according to builders guidelines according to my sizes initially, then I'll see how I will cope and make adjustments accordingly
Super excited, will also buy clothes on Friday, I don't think I can recycle running clothes right?
But.... It's been 11 years since my last ride! You think I'll still be able to cycle? My plan is to come home, lock in my garage and try it first without locking shoes, then try the locking mechanism, then go out and hope really hope I won't fall down in front of people

Real goal, get into the swing of Marathon training, and get used to doing 3 days a week of some strength/core while running 35+ MPW
Today's notes: When I saw the -13 on my home thermometer, I realized that I made the right decision talking to my coach and setting up a treadmill run for today in lieu of running my 5 outside. There was just something about running in those temps with no sun that just didn't seem all that nice.
Today's run was 5 miles with treadmill set at 3% incline, runing speeds of 5.8, 6.2, 5.9, 6.3, 6.0. I was pretty fried by the end. Tomorrow's treadmill hill interval should be interesting.1 -

Looks nice! You can do it! The falling will happen when you first start out with the locking shoes. At least it has with everyone I know. It usually happens when you are stopping, starting or just standing waiting to go. That's because it is just hard to get used to unclipping them. After a few weeks, you don't even think about it. Hopefully you are in a bike-friendly city.
Enjoy!

@midwesterner85 If you are still looking for a non-bouncing backpack: I have the Salomon Agile backpack - both the 7 litre version (enough for a 1.5l hydration pouch, a jacket, some tissues and gels, whatever I feel I might need on a long run), and the 12 litre version (when I want to combine a run with grocery shopping or for some more serious trails where I want to have more stuff like a small first aid kit/more clothes/food/whatever with me). I read some reviews that complain about the fact that there aren't many different sub-pockets on the inside, but that doesn't bother me. They also have an even larger version - but there's a limit to how much stuff I want to carry with me on a run
And I have one other (much cheaper) backpack that's okay too. The first one I bought, a few years ago. It is a little more bouncy than the Salomon ones, so for extra clothes it's fine, but I wouldn't like carrying heavy water bottles around in it. Plus I only found it on amazon.co.uk, not on the US site, so it's probably out for you anyway.1 -

Thank you! I notice the 12 has a lower 2nd strap as well, which would seem like it will help with the bounce.0 -
@patrikc333 Cool! A bike fitting sounds really professional, I just got a used bike in what I hoped was the right frame size and then spent a bit of time messing around with handle bar and saddle position until I was happy...
If you are worried about not having cycled for so long, and the locking shoes: you can try out the bike in regular shoes first, so that you only have to worry about one thing at a time, if that makes it easier for you. (I actually don't use the bike shoes for short everyday rides - I can't walk in the bike shoes, and I don't want to carry a second pair with me and change back and forth all the time - imagine going back home from work and stopping at the supermarket, and changing shoes all the time! I've got a more bike-enthusiastic colleague who keep telling me that "you absolutely can not do such a thing", but I still haven't figured out why he's objecting so strongly against it.)0 -
Still working on slowing down my pace for easy and long runs. Also, I was going through my training schedule and came across something towards the end that I don't understand. Can someone explain the red part for me? Not the warmup and cool down but the heck does the 5 X 3 mins supposed to mean?

Read it as 5 x (3 mins @ 8:09... , 2 min slow jog)
Basically means run for 5 minutes at the suggested pace then 2 minutes slow jog, and repeat all of that 5 times. You're basically supposed to be doing 5 quick intervals and a 2 minute jog to recover in between each one.1 -

I think it means 5 times, run for 3 min. at 8:09 to 8:19 pace with 2 min. jogging in between.
In other words:
1 mile warm-up
3 min. run at 8:09 to 8:19 pace (1)
2 min. slow jogging
3 min. run at 8:09 to 8:19 pace (2)
2 min. slow jogging
3 min. run at 8:09 to 8:19 pace (3)
2 min. slow jogging
3 min. run at 8:09 to 8:19 pace (4)
2 min. slow jogging
3 min. run at 8:09 to 8:19 pace (5)

Can someone explain the red part for me? Not the warmup and cool down but the heck does the 5 X 3 mins supposed to mean?
@dkabambe and @midwesterner85 nailed it. It's an interval worcout with sets of hard running and recovery.1 -

@elise4270 Sorry going back to work isn't easy
I think if you can play Twinkle, Twinkle, you will definitely be able to play the ABC song! Hehe. @7lenny7 is always a comedian :-p
@kristinegift That elevation sounds painful!
My knee is being awful cranky after doing a light/low impact cardio workout last night. Dang. I really think I might have screwed up my knee 2 weeks ago, that night I was kneeling down and then stood up and it hurt. Maybe I've torn something. I dunno. And I have no time to deal with that. I guess if it still hurts after the 3 weeks off running and our Mayo trip, I'll have to get myself to a Dr 1 -
The good news: I feel somewhat better this morning. I also rolled my sore calf last night on a makeshift foam roller (it was a toy bowling pin made out of hard foam), and today it feels much better. So I'm hoping to get a few miles in tonight. Best not to overdo it, but I am falling behind in miles to reach my goal in time.3
