7 fairly hard miles for me today. 1 mile warm up. Intended to run 8 minute pace tempo miles and ended up in another progression run, pushing each mile a little faster down to 7:30 by mile 7.
I was thinking of our marathoners the whole way and how much I would've liked to be out there today but the tempo run was a harsh reminder of how much fitness I've lost. But it sure did feel good to be out there .
I ran a mile and I liked it, liked it, liked it. dgb2n@yahoo.com

It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.
Hope you feel better soon, Kimmie. Here's my race report: http://www.runningahead.com/groups/MastRun/Forum/76ac8f088af64712a3d3b3d8b8a74d70

Hey, congratulations on the hard swim, um, I mean, run, in that noreaster marathon.
Or, screw all that and just be glad you're done for the time being, and set your sights on something later on.
I didn't run today. I didn't work out. I went shopping for groceries and stuff and DH and I spent an amazing amount of money but got a tremendous amount of food and stuff. If the boys complain about there being no food in the house for the next 10 days or so, I think I'll have to beat them. Really.
Ha, a great chuckle to start my day! I see low 50s and am wearing a long-sleeve shirt to run in for the first time this season I think.
Kimmie, I was thinking of you all day. Whew, what a race. I'm so inspired by anyone who keeps running in conditions like that--hey, it's what finisher's medals are given for--a marathon is a beast! Congratulations on having the endurance and grit to finish!
Long intervals today--the first two felt impossibly difficult but the last two much easier, though the pace was actually faster. Wish running made more sense sometimes.
Low 50s, wow. . . . our highs are back in the 80s . . . in case anyone wants a warm-weather race anytime soon . . .
Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. (Heb. 12:1b) Mile by Mile
