I capped off March with a 7 miler, for a grand total of 50.7 miles this month!  That’s a streak of 2 50+ mile months in a row.  I’m not sure about April, but we’ll see how it goes. I’m … Continue reading →

Long runs, out of doors

Posted on March 29, 2013 by G

Since I think I’d rather eat my sports bra than do another 5 mile run on the treadmill, I packed up warmer socks and a thermal undershirt and took my workout outside. It was still a bit chilly, maybe 40-45 … Continue reading →

Weight zoom

Posted on March 28, 2013 by G

It’s a busy day at work, but I fit in a trip to the gym to hit the weight room because it is an Important Priority. Or rather, because I had a strong feeling that moving heavy objects would relieve … Continue reading →

Out of gas

Posted on March 27, 2013 by G

I did exactly half of my scheduled 3 mile run today. Sigh. On a normal day, I can run a mile or mile and a half before it starts to feel “hard”, but today I had to fight right from … Continue reading →

Something. Something good.

What’s one mile, more or less?

Posted on March 22, 2013 by G

Today’s scheduled run was a 5-miler. Yes, I finished it. No, it was not pretty. Yes, I feel like I’m about to keel over. For the record, I’d like to say that I’m pretty sure 3 miles is my practical … Continue reading →

Nice workout

Posted on March 21, 2013 by G

I went to the gym with J to do my once-a-week weightlifting. It was a nice break from running! I shared the weight room with a man I run into often at the gym, and I asked if he was … Continue reading →

I runned.

Posted on March 20, 2013 by G

Simple 3 mile day. I was a little worried, given how awful yesterday was, but it turned out okay. My legs are still a bit tired, though. You know how when you start a training plan, you’re like “WOO! This … Continue reading →

Sort of fail

Posted on March 19, 2013 by G

Less than 15 hours after my previous workout (though with a crappy night of sleep) I headed back to the gym for a 40 minute tempo run. It did not go as planned. I didn’t have much in the tank, … Continue reading →
