Whew, busy week. Ran a half marathon this weekend, then rest day and two short runs since I last checked in. November is chugging right along.

@ohhim : seems we had this discussion last year after the LV 1/2: you thought it was perfect weather, I froze my tushe! But, my back recovered enough to finish. Definitely no PR!
Awesome to hear you were able to complete the race.
I'm not sure why I love running in cold windy weather, but given that I didn't have a long wait in the corrals for the start, was mostly being blown up the strip (2/3 of the race was going with the wind), and I hate running in the Florida steamroom conditions I'm faced with locally, I really welcomed the 55 degrees despite the 19mph winds - even in shorter running shorts and a light t-shirt. Only being on the course for 93 minutes probably helped as well. Also, when I started running at 250lb 3 years ago in Florida, the only way I could run fast was if I had a lot of environmental help to cool me down, so psychologically, I've always equated faster running with cold & windy conditions.
Back in the swampy south now after lots of air travel, so took a rest day yesterday, and resumed running with 2 shorter slower recovery workouts today on sore legs. Hoping the swampy heat and humidity with subside as 80 degrees w. 80% humidity was hard to take after the dryer Vegas weather last week. Doing a 5k this weekend, which will complete my streak of 3 weekends in a row of racing.

Oh dear, people have been congratulating me for running a 5k, but I didn't say I ran a 5k.
I ran my furthest distance yet DURING a 5k parkrun.
I actually "only" ran a bit over 2km.
Sorry for the confusion!
Don't sell yourself short. I count run/walk as running. No matter how little I actually run, as long as I'm putting out the effort- its a run. No one starts out running the entire distance. Er no normal person that is, maybe the gifted or youth.
Awww, thanks heaps, @Elise4270 and @moyer566
Today I ran 25 minutes without stopping! Personal best!
It was supposed to be 20 minutes but I somehow skipped ahead 2 weeks on my C25K app and I played the wrong day, Week 7 Day3 instead of W5D3, and still just kept running just because I could!0 -

back to back HM - this is what I like! not woken up well, in pain this morning (it was too good to be true when I woke up yesterday pain free)
but I'm fed up so I sucked it up, and it paid off. leg "unlocked" after exactly 11km, then at km 15 I even managed to speed up
it was a very nice morning, lots of stars, but lots of traffic, big lorries transporting other heavy machinery and that was a bit annoying
but lots of deers and rabbits
and I was and I'm not tired at all, the last 2 days helped me a lot in regaining confidence - obviously if ITBS would go I would much much much more happy
now time for rest, 10k tomorrow then off on Friday, so I'll able to run the toughest HM at 7 instead of 4 in the morning with more hours of sleep and my brain much more relaxed - I fear it as I failed last week, but hustles are there to be overcome!0 -

Nice and easy one today. Tried out a similar outfit to what I'll be wearing Sunday since the temps today are almost identical to what they'll be Sunday. I'm confident I'll be comfortable except for some cold buns But I guess that's what I get for signing up for a November marathon, huh?

Nov 18 - strength training after work today. Wanted to run this morning but I've got so much grading and was up really late. It just didn't make sense to run on <5 hours sleep. Will finish grading tonight (hopefully early) and plan on running tomorrow! Then do it all again next week. Besides my FT teaching job, I am an adjunct professor and the university asked me to teach 3 classes this semester. Usually I teach 1 or 2 - it is all online but still too much. It's like 2 FT jobs. Oh well, money is good and only 4 more weeks and it is flying by. And, of course, I decide to add my first streak in the middle of this chaos, lol.

Not a good day yesterday. It started out pretty good though. I had a meeting at a client's office in the morning and the trip back to my office took me by my house so I decided to run for lunch. It was cool 55F, misty with a slight breeze. Beautiful for running!
I planned on a 5 mile route, was feeling great, then at 4.2 miles my left knee started feeling unstable a couple of times on landing. A bit further down the path a dull pain started and a bit after that it was sharp enough that I stopped running and started walking. There was no pain at all when walking. I'd walk a ways, attempt to run, then walk again. I finally figured out that if I ran faster, the pain was less so I did that the rest of the way home.
I fear I have ITBS from what I read about it. Now I need to go back and find those great posts by @Stoshew71 with links and video about taking care of it.
This is what really gets me. I had put on over 600 miles since May, running up to 46 miles in a week and not ONCE did I ever have an issue with any part of my left side. Any injuries, aches & pains were always on my right side. Then I take a 2 week break and on the second day running this happens.
Rest day today then I'll try a 3 mile run tomorrow.

Interesting study by Dr. Jack Daniels who biopsied the muscles of lots of athletes that had long term rest.
Thanks for the video, Stan! That agrees completely with the article I read on RunnerConnect.net. There's a great chart in that article that give you an expected reduction in fitness for different rest periods, and the effects on 5k race time for a 20:00 runner. Estimates for sure, but they give a good idea of what to expect.
I dug further into the video link you provided and started watching the many other videos from that seminar by Dr Daniels and found some other great info. One that I found particularly interesting was one on optimal breathing. He's a proponent of a 2/2 breathing rate, which is to say the inhalation and exhalation each last two strides. I have been doing a 3/3 for most of my long run, sometimes going with 4/4 (mainly to help increase stride rate) but usually ended up 2/2 toward the end of a long run when I'm really tired, or around the middle of a tempo run. I'll have experiment more with a 2/2.

Yesterday's run was a slow one. About 30 seconds per mile slower than my normal comfy pace. Probably a combination of the wind, tired legs from lunges and squats on Monday and the headlamp. But I know we all have those days. Wasn't a bad run, just felt really slow.
Does anyone else notice a difference in pace when running in the dark? I always am slower with the headlamp. I think I change my stride a bit because I am more focused on the area directly in front of me. I also think it alters my overall posture.

I have the same issue in the dark, though I don't use a headlamp.
11/1 - rest day / Halloween Hangover
11/2 - 5.25 miles, 55° at 5:30 a.m. in Iowa! Nuts, but I love it!
11/3 - 4 miles on indoor track followed by weights / abs. After running mostly outside for six months, you can run pretty fast on a flat, indoor surface.
11/4 - 5.1 miles, again about 55° at 5:00 a.m. Getting spoiled by the weather!
11/5 - woke up with some major heel pain...a touch of plantar fasciitis perhaps. Decided to take my rest day early and try again tomorrow.
11/6 - 4 miles on indoor track + weights / abs. Heel feeling better, but not completely pain free.
11/7 - 6 miles on a gorgeous morning!
11/8 - 4 miles on another gorgeous day! Tried to get my daughter to come with, but she just wanted to walk...so I did that first.
11/9 - 4 miles on indoor track, followed by lots of stretching
11/10 - Rest Day.
11/11 - 4 miles on indoor track, then weights and abs.
11/12 - 5.1 miles on treadmill (Trek class)...always seems to be the most difficult run of the week.
11/13 - Unplanned rest day due to catastrophic appliance failure in my home
11/14 - 6.2 chilly but lovely miles in DSM...running out of these kinds of days I am afraid.
11/15 - 4.7 beautiful miles around my neighborhood...lots of stinky female gingko trees
11/16 - planned rest day
11/17 - 4 miles on indoor track, with weights and abs after (soggy, rainy day here...definitely November)
11/18 - 5 miles before it started dumping cold rain again. Not sure why, but this was a GREAT run! Felt good, relaxed, enjoyed the damp, windy and warm-for-November weather. Runs like this are super!

I like Dr. Daniels. I have his book.
Good luck with the ITBS, the knee, or whatever it turns out to be. Sucks to have to slow down due to these problems.

here I am, and I'm so glad that other people have the same experience and it's not my body (completely) falling apart!
my easy pace training HM of ~ 5:10 (min/km) became a 5:30-5:50, despite all efforts I put into it! my fast run at 4:20-4:30 became a 5 min/km runs, around 20-30 sec slower / km
I've got an excellent head lamp, but probably it's the brain that doesn't also have the confidence of putting the feet on the groung, without having 100% visibility (leaves, dark, puddles, potholes hidden etc)0 -
I’ve been SO crappy about exercise/running for awhile so this is the reset month. I’m setting
the bar a bit lower..want to get in 2 miles a day so I’ll go for 60 but I really want to exceed that.
11/01: No run
11/02: Didn’t do any yesterday but I got in a respectable 3.2 today.
11/03: No run
11/04: No run
11/05: Not a lot of time this morning but I did get in 2.9.
11/06: No run
11/07: No run
11/08: No run
11/09: No run
11/10: No run
11/11: No run
11/12: No run
11/13: No run
11/14: 3.2 miles this morning. The start of getting consistent with this again I hope
11/15: No running, busy busy day
11/16: 3 miles in first frost of the year. Fast pace (for me), 10:20/mile.
11/17: 3 miles
11/18: Rest day planned today but I should get in some mini cycling and a walk
Still possible to hit goal but I'm going to have to work hard and get some long runs in on weekends...

On your easy runs, concentrate on good form (upright posture, arms swinging correctly, feet fast and landing correctly, quicker shorter strides, ect. Now don't work on everything at once, but always be aware of your form so eventually it becomes subconcious.
That way, you can concentrate on other things like when it gets darker out, you can be more aware of your surroundings and not as much on your form. But good form comes from practice.
Don't get so hung up on trying to run faster. At least 80% of your weekly miles should be easy running. Use that time to focus on your form.

Are you worried about the temperatures or the snow on the ground? In case it's about the ground traction, I have one more option to add to Stoshew71 's list:Question for the snow/outdoors no matter the weather runners...what do you do or use to keep yourself upright in the snow/bad ground conditions? I absolutely dread the idea of having to bring it indoors because of the snow and ice. But we just had a snowfall that was deep enough to give me a snow day off work. I'm supposed to walk today, run tomorrow. So I'm planning for tomorrow. What do I do to get to stay outside??
Icebug shoes http://icebug.com/ - hard to find in the stores, at least were I live, but I ordered some on amazon and really like them for snowy conditions.
@Somebody_Loved well done running the 60 min!
@Pmm5pla and @hopekristal : Welcome!
@7lenny7 Oh no! I hope the knee will get better fast.
@kristinegift I'll keep my fingers crossed for your perfect marathon weather
@kareF , @Elise4270 and @Stoshew71 You are now the first three people I've ever added on Strava
My link is https://www.strava.com/athletes/7264526 - anyone, feel free to add me.
Although there isn't any activity on my page for this week yet *sigh* - woke up with a light cold on the weekend. Nothing serious, so I compromised between "running nose = should probably rest" and "beautiful weather, I want to run" and only went for ~20 minute run on Sunday. But since Monday I've been good and rested - it's already dark when I come home from work, then the temptation to go out and run is not as bad - although tomorrow I might just decide that if I'm healthy enough to work, I'm healthy enough to run

I generally run only in the dark but I do have a lot of street lamps on my routes.
@karllundy I like running in wet weather because it helps cool me off and I feel like I can go farther or faster
so on my long run on Saturday...my fat went numb. I had layers, and I was actually pretty warm. It was mid-30's. My belly, back of my arms and hip fats all went numb. What might be the best way to avoid this?0 -

Would you run in 41 degrees with wind gusts of 40 mph? I'm prepared for the 41, not as much for the wind.
Trying to decide if I'm going to try to make it happen at my lunch break as usual or chance it for later after work.0 -

Got in a slow run. And have nothing to do the rest of the day (oh sure I could clean my house but it'll just get dirty again). So I figure I'll just go run again later. Why not? Tomorrow is a rehab day and I likely won't be able to get in a run..
@kristinegift Thanks for suggesting McFarland USA. I watched it last night and all I can think about now is running. (Like I wasn't obsessed before, pfft). Amazing that one man's temper/mistakes ultimately changed the life of so many. Just shows the craziest things we do can have such profound impacts.

@kristinegift you are going to kill it this weekend, you are so ready, with or without cold buns!
@lporter229 I run in the dark all the time I don't think I run any slower.
@virkati no I wouldn't run in 40 mph winds, only because it would take so much effort to move and to me that would seem like wasted effort.0
