Long-Term Running Goals: Another PR before I turn 60.
Continue running and avoid knee surgery. Personal: I got back into running in January 2007. Lost 35 pounds and keep trying to follow my high school track/cc son around. Soon found out that coaching was a better choice. Ran semi seriously in high school ( 4:30 ish mile), but had done no running in 29 years. I think I'm back and complain heavily when not allowed to run.
Take Shape for Life helped me lose 25 pounds after I had been a runner for a number of years and my half marathon time clearly reflected that.....I must add that I feel and look way more like a runner. |

| Back at sea level and a really sunny but cold day. Long run day so I thought it reasonable to run it a little faster than I have been so just squeeked under the 9 minute mark averaging 8:58 for the run. Breathing was easy except for the hills. | | Add Comment |

Really cold today. Started out sunny and about 12 degrees with no wind. By the time I got near the end it was single digits and a good 15-20 MPH wind in my face. By the time I was done I had no feeling in my face or in my hands. I just knew better than to stop! Long icicles in my beard. Ended up at a good pace of 8:35/ mile.

Tempo day. Ran to the gym and did a 1 mile treadmill warmup for a total of 2.7 miles. Then did a 5.25 mile tempo run at a pace in the 7:40's. Finished it off with a 1.3 mile cooldown. Then walked home from the gym.
In the afternoon went for a quick 1 hour snowshoe hike. REally uses different muscles than running. | | Add Comment |
