Just one race at a time

Rest day

4 miles 1% incline .5 at 10:00 pace to warm up 3.5 at 8:28 (7.1) I wanted to do four at this pace but stopped early not so much out of pain or fatigue but just because I could... I really need to learn some of those Jedi, ninja or Rhett mind tricks to stay on the treadmill when want to get off.   At the time I thought "I can't go any farther" but sitting here I know I could have.  STINK!  This is just slightly faster than the pace I want to go at painters.  I am not sure how I think I can run 13.1 at this pace when I cant even do 4.

5 miles today the weather was great I ran in new running pants and the kept me very warm.

splits: 8:45, 8:32, 8:44, 8:29, 8:38

The pace was not that much slower than yesterday but I felt much better doing it.  I think on the treadmill because the terrain doesn't change I use the same muscles all the time and I get tired faster. It could be just that I get board faster.

Race pace miles today I did them on the treadmill 1% incline .5 mile warm up at 10:00 and then 4.5 at 8:34 (7.0)  I really had to talk myself into the last mile but I did it.  I just remember how bad I felt when I quit on Monday and that kept me going.

Ran with SDRR I went early and did 3.4 miles before the run.  They started right on time today but there were only five of us Jim, Andy, Laura, one other girl (did get her name sorry) and me.  They all run very fast and for the first little while they wanted too run together.  They tried to run my pace but I was so glad when they left me!

splits 8:46, 8:59, 9:11, 9:34, 8:26, 9:00, 9:08, 9:29, 10:08, 9:46, 9:25

Like last week I felt like I was going much faster than the splits show especially when I was with the group.  I though we must have been running 7:30 but we were only going 8:30-9:00
