Snowaggedon 2014

Wow what a shock that was. Getting trapped at work was no fun but so glad the girls were home with power and safe. Ok from zero degrees to 60 and rain in a week. Time to refocus Mercedes is 16 days away!

Well 1 more race on the schedule

And it is a big one. Got the Krispy Kreme donut dash done and it was fun. pushed the pace and felt good. I have to admit I am a little tired. I am 6-1/2 months into hard training and my body is getting tired. I am ready to run Mercedes and let my body catch up. I am proud of my accomplishment thus far and in no way am I ready to give up but I am ready to get it done!

Recovery week from FLM

I have had a great recovery week. 2 great pace 6 milers and a 10 for my long run at a 10:50 average pace. I will miss my long run next week because we will be doing the donut run which I am looking forward to.

FIRST LIGHT MARATHON MOBILE AL

Mobile is an awesome city. Unfortunately my girls were not feeling good the whole trip. I would love to go back and spend some time walking around and taking it all in. The run went pretty well. I made it to the start line unfreaked out which I have managed to do the last two races. My time was not as good as Huntsville but I am very pleased with it. It was very hilly. Glen and I both had good races and we are 2/3 the way there!!! Looking forward to Mercedes!

Race week once again! First light is coming ready or not.

It is weird I did not get stressed out about Rocket City. I felt like I had trained the best I could and was as ready as I was going to get. I am not as confident about FLM. I know I can do it just don't know how well. I will stick to the altered plan I made after RCM and see how it unfolds. Bring it on! After Sunday I will be 2/3 of the way to something a year ago I would have never thought I would have tried.
