[aphigirl01]

14 miles this morning in 1:59:04. I felt great. Probably one of the easiest runs I have had in a while. The tempurature was perfect, low 60s, but it was pretty humid. The route was pretty hilly in spots, but I guess that's good for me. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

I just popped in to see what aphigirl ran today. Inspiring as usual.

Nice run aphigirl!!!<br><br>
6 very hilly miles with a training group. Started out in the 9 min/mile group but wound up with a 7:57 pace for the run. Pushed the uphills hard and took it easy on the downs. Felt good. Temp was a perfect 35 degrees with no wind. WOOOHOO Shorts!!! <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"><br><br>
2 more with the DD after.

howdy do<br><br><i>wow</i>...great runs, aphi and dg!<br><br>
For me today, it was day 6 in my no-run rotation week.<br>
I can tell that the bod felt better compared to yesterday's exhaustion, cuz I was able to do the entire kickboxing workout [including plyo blasts and endless tuck jumps...OY!] + the leg drills at the end.<br>

12 miles on the tm today. This is a cut back week for me for my lsd run. I ran it at an 8m18s pace (just under 1h40m). I would have run outside but, I needed to stay close by to be here for DS if he needed me. I hit 50 miles for the week for the first time since last summer!<br><br>
Great runs DG and Aphigirl! WTPJ, I'm always impressed by people that can do classes/video workouts, etc. For whatever reason, I'm unable/inept, etc.

 

[Grizzly]

8.25 miles total.<br><br>
Plan called for a 8-15k race, but there being none available I ran 5.25 miles hard on the dreadmill after warming up.<br><br>
Pretended it was a race. 1.5% incline. Managed a 7:18 pace over the 5.25 miles, but it wasn't easy.<br><br>
Ah well, 18 miler tomorrow, gotta maintain some energy, right?

 

[Flounder]

Nice runs all -<br><br>
Today it was 44F and foggy at the start and 55F cloudy with a nice breeze by the end.<br><br>
When in training - I try to run 1 -30 or longer mile run every 4 weeks. Today was the day. I thought I would abort early on - it sucked and sucked and sucked some more - Not sure if it was the 5 beers last night or all the miles this week. There is a 7 mile route we run on Tuesday nights, so the goal was to run it 5 times. Each 7 mile loop felt better and better and better - to the point it was a shame to stop @ 35 miles, but I made a promise to be home by 1:00. The only gels I had were a mish-mash of what I have received in Marathon bags - 5 diferent kinds.<br><br>
Loop#1 56:30<br>
Loop#2 54:21<br>
Loop#3 53:42<br>
Loop#4 53:09<br>
Loop#5 51:18<br><br>
Total Run 4:29 or 7:41 pace<br><br>
Nice 6+ mile bike ride with my 6 year old when I got home - No rest for the wicked <img alt="drunken_smilie.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/drunken_smilie.gif"><br><br>
Good running to all -

6 miles of hilly trails in perfect conditions, ran it hard against the clock and finished 7 minutes faster than the same route back in November. <img alt="bom.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/bom.gif"><br>
Good runs all

Much better long run today. The legs felt a lot better than the last time I did the long run.<br><br>
I again tried to focus on form, but I did notice I was leaning forward when I was getting tired.<br><br>
I deliberately tried to push the pace during miles 4,5, and 6. Some of the other miles were all over the map on time.<br><br>

Flounder- super run today. <img alt="notworthy.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/notworthy.gif"><br><br>
The Mad City 100km is two weeks from today. Why not enter? Date conflict? You're in shape for it, IMO.

 

[roots]

Today is three weeks from Boston, and I joined the group for an easy 23 mile run in the Cuyahoga Valley. A fun run with a mix of towpath (flat dirt trail,) roads, hills, and even 3 miles on a muddy technical trail. A mild 55F and muggy at 8am.<br><br>
23 miles total: 3:20<br><br>
Added 8mi road cycling this afternoon to loosen up. Whew, I'm pooped.

 

[equinox marathon 43]

roots, flounder, I tip my hat to both of you...very nice efforts today!<br><br>
aphigirl01 - Too bad we didn't live closer to each other...your 14 miles today were about the same speed as mine first 14 miles. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

 

[Flounder]

Roots - Not in the shape I would want to be for thta race - I would not get satisfaction in just finishing the distance.<br><br>
My question for you - Are you running that race - I remember your 12 hour race total last fall -<br><br>
2 weekend from now is Easter<br><br>
I thought the race was next weekend

 

[duckgeek]

Nice runs, the whole lot of you. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> Impressive times and distances.<br><br>
I'm just back in the door from my first longish run with 9.5 m.o. DD2 in the jogging stroller. 10 miles in 1:24:33 (8:27/mi). She slept the whole way, what a great kid!<br><br>
It was a nice relaxed run at sunset.

 

[Amethyst]

Rest day for me, though rest is relative when you're the mom of an active toddler.....

 

[rhody92]

Great runs yesterday everyone!<br><br>
I did a 7K race and since it was the first 7K (that's about 4.35 miles for you Americans) race I've heard of, I got a PR! I didn't know what to expect for a time b/c my legs were a little dead this week, but I managed to break 30 minutes, barely. I probably could have done a little better, but I ended up running with a few friends who wanted to run 7-min miles. Of course, they had already run 16 miles and were going to do two more after the race to make 22+ for their last long runs before Boston....
