35.8. Ended kinda crappy. I had planned on a ~5 mile tempo run, but my legs had other plans. So I did a bit over 3, instead. Poo. My last few attempts at Tempo runs have been like this, unfortunately. I hope it doesn't have too much negative bearing on my upcoming HM. k

Cool! Nice work. Smile

Maybe your legs won't give you those tempo runs now because they are saving up super speed for the HM! Big grin

Nice work Kirsten, and I agree with Michelle! Your body is saving it's speed for the HM that you're going to ROCK!

Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don't so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head." - Joe Henderson

Nice job, Zoomy. Like the others said - your legs need to save up the speed for rockin!

Passion is a rather frightening thing because if you have passion you don't know where it will take you.

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

Good job Kirsten! Just give those legs a rest before the Hm and you will ROCK! Wink

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

Goals 2013:

Wooly Trails HM on 2/16
Another HM TBD
run 1000 miles?
