LAST RUN FOR 2008

Tuesday, December 30th, 2008

Well the end of 2008 is upon us!! I did my last run of the year.  A 6 miler @ a 755 pace. I felt great.  The last month has been my best training month for all of 2008.

It took me all year to rehab my foot and back and finally feel 100%.  For 2009 I plan on working on my speed and distance.  I hope to run a Half-Marathon in the first 4 months of 2009.

Happy New Year!!!

HOLIDAY in NAPA

Monday, December 29th, 2008

We were in NApa for Christmas and had a great time.  I had one of my best runs in a long while.

I did a 6 miler surrounded by vineyards and the weather was cool.  I ran a 7:53 pace and felt great.

I am hoping to put a race on the calendar for the first quarter of 2009!!!

Inside

Between work and the weather I have not had an opportunity to run outside.  I have been working out in the gym and doing the elliptical!!!

Hitting the Gym

Due to the rain I have been forced indoors.  I have been working out and training on the Elliptical.

Not nearly as good as being outdoors but will do for now!!!

Two Good Runs

I had a good 5 mile and 6 mile runs in back to back days.  Both were under 820 pace and I felt good!!!

 

CLEANSE AND RUN

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

This was my first run while doing (actually almost done with) the cleanse.  I felt fatigued but had a good run.  I did a 5.50 mile run @ 809 pace.

I have not been running due to the cleanse I have been on.  I have been hitting the gym but my energy is much lower.  I am going to try to do a run tomorrow!!!
