      I see he did a Daniel's tempo ~hour at marathon pace. Sub-3 baby!

        Thanks...I almost bailed less than two miles in because I was having a hard time breathing in the cold air. Once my lungs opened up, it got a lot easier. It's weird how much easier running is when you can breathe.  #damaris

                Maybe if I was running twice the volume, but there is no chance on 45 mpw.

                  Hang in there all of you Midwesterners. I would have been in the thick of it if we hadn’t moved to near Philadelphia last March.

                   

                  3 mile jog today. It’s the first time I’ve run outside since September. It was sunny and 35.

                   

                  I'll drink to that! Of course, I'll drink to just about anything. lol

                   

                  Are you on an every day schedule or every other day?

                   

                  You'd be proud of me; after 20 minutes in this ice box I cranked the heat up to 80. I've never done that before!

                    You have plenty of time to bump up mileage. But yeah, do whatever you've been doing since it's obviously working!

                      My TM should ship tomorrow and take two weeks to get here. Waahhh

                       

                      Did B 1 ever show up?

                        Mileage won't get too much higher than 50 mpw. Sub-3 was never my goal.

                          Just a mere thought. No biggie. I ended my post with what is most important.

                            Right. I hear ya. But it's still nice to know, I guess, that if you truly trained for a marathon you'd have a serious shot at sub-3.

                              I did my last "long" run of 13 easy on Sunday.  When I started it was 48, when I finished it was 63, and when I went to lunch (bomb ass Mexican) it was 81.  Ahh, winter.  This morning was 7 easy with 6x10 second hill sprints, another "cold for here" day at 47.  I am NOT complaining.  After Friday's terrifyingly difficult workout, today's easy pace crept down below GMP, so I guess sleep was what I needed.  Got a box o' Gu in the mail, can't wait to play "what flavor sounds like it will be the least disgusting at mile 20" roulette.

                               

                              Husband decided he would run the 1/2 option (which means I have someone to drive me home!), but his venture to procure running shoes from Big 5 resulted in a set of cross trainers.  I made him play LRS using Amazon's lovely free return service, I ordered 4 pair of shoes and made him try them all on.  I got him to finally admit I know more about this than he does when he put on a pair of Launch 5s and fell straight up in love with those bitches.  If only he would listen to me earlier!!!

                               

                              Now to resume e-discovery, interrupted by the need to weather stalk approximately every 17 minutes.

                                I just got my second variety box from Amazon (I got the first one back in August, I think). After years of playing favorites, now I just gobble down whatever my hand pulls out of my fanny pouch. Smile

                                 

                                Seriously though, the Jet Blackberry and Chocolate Outrage could rule my inner sanctum. But yeah, choosing GU flavors for a marathon takes WORK.
