Daughter overheard me last night say that I wasn't sure if I could meet my stretch goal. She said to me, "You run 5Ks all the time, you really want to meet your goal, so I think you should just do it." Well, of course you can't let a little girl down who has faith in you so this morning I laced up and ran. Actually felt…

WOOHOO! I was not entirely sure I'd be able to get it done, but happy to say I knocked out 10 miles again today. This was a key point in training to see how my body handles double digits before I push further. I have a half on July 10 and my goal is to get to 12 before tapering down.

Love this answer. My children will get the vaccine as soon as it's open to them (they are 7 and 9). While it's unlikely they will get seriously ill from COVID, allowing to spread among children increases the chances of variants that could evade the current vaccine. There is also the chance they could spread it to someone…

Running indoors - Even with speed work, I'd much rather take it to the local high school track vs. the treadmill. Elliptical - I never feel like I get a good workout on it no matter how hard I push. Swimming laps - I'd rather jab my eyes out. Zumba - Used to like it, but not anymore. Not a good enough burn for me and I am…

@martaindale - I promise you I want that sweet spot of not needing gloves/tights/long sleeves but not hot and humid. Took my speed work to the track today. Five, four minute tempo intervals with recovery in between. Felt really good. May 6 - 3.61 miles Total for May - 22.71 miles May Goal - 100 miles Miles to go - 77.29…

Can you give yourself 10 minutes or so to see how you feel? You may go out and quickly realize that you feel junky and need to rest. You may also realize that you feel great and can keep going. With a head cold, sometimes I feel fine running and other times I need a few days. You aren't going to lose any progress by taking…
