Monday's workout: Run 2 minutes. Realize that:
a. I have no desire to run
b. Gee I almost got run over by a bus b/c the fog is so thick and I'm not even on my back roads yet.
c. I'm going to run home and get in the shower instead.
Total run time 6 minutes.
Later that day....it's 55 out (according to my car) I NEED to run.
Put my SHORTS ON! (yee ha!) and go out for a 3 mile run. It should be a fartlek, but I say F it, and just run. Turn route around b/c if i run this 3 mile route one more time I might never run again. Push myself (1st mile 8. 2nd mile 8.03. 3rd mile 9.05) total time 25.09.67. I wish I could of done mile 3 in less than 9, but you can't win them all. Since I don't have all those fancy gadgets everyone else has, I have no idea what the heartrate was, but it was extremely high.
Today was gym day. Clog lady #2 was on the great treadmill. (yes there are 2 clog ladies) and of course all the slow walkers grab the best mills too. No big deal I did elipitical and got a great workout.
My husband says I need to get up to 10 miles within the next two weeks. I guess I'm going for 9 or + miles this Saturday. I'll just skip 8 miles. I'm debating about doing it alone though. I'm not sure if my running partners are up to 9 miles yet and I have to do it super early (in case/most likely/i have a feeling that my pace will be 10 minutes or more) b/c daughter #1 has an early b-day party to attend and I hate running in the afternoon.
not much to report other than that.

Laughing my butt off reading about your Monday morning workout. 2x200m sprint?
Good job on the three miles. "Just run" is sometimes good advice.
I ran my first few half-marathon distances without actually running more than 10 or 11K prior to them. The way I saw it, a half-marathon is a 11K followed by a 10K. I trained to the stage where I was comfortable running a 10K, then the half marathon just felt like running twice in one day. Maybe don't get too hung up on the mileage.
Two run in one day! Something I gotta try! Yeah, I let to get my run in 1st thing in the morning too, but it doesn't always happen.
Have fun on that 9+ miles this weekend.
Don't worry about your time this weekend. Get the miles in and mentally your next long run will feel fantastic.
And that's a very respectable 5K time! Nice!
Good job getting your run in later in the day!
nice work! someday someday, i'm gonna run that fast!
