Perfect my diet to run better, stonger and faster!
Long-Term Running Goals:
Run 3:15 marathon.
Personal:
I have 4 kids, 2 boys and 2 girls. 11, 9, 6 and 2. I have been married to my guy for 13 years. He is great and so supportive of my running life. He is also very active, mostly weight training and he has run 2 half marathons as well. He is very fast without training too hard. 1:28 Half Marathon!!! I am working on being able to keep up with him. Someday when are kids are older we look forward to training together.
Thanks Teena! I am going to stick with 7 miles 3 days a week and a longer run on Sat. I am going to start adding speed work in a few weeks. I just haven't decided before or after Christmas.
4 days a week seems to be perfect for me. That is all I trained for SGM and I PR'd. So why fix something that aint broke?
I hope you are back soon so we can do speedwork and Sat. runs together.
My lungs didn't feel the greatest after my run yesterday. I wonder if it is the lovely inversion crap in the air. Does that seem to affect your asthma? It sure does with my 2 kiddies that have it.
Hmm I wish I new what inversion means. I know I should I am old enough! I am a bit of an oblivious person. I don't pay much attention. (you know what color my hair is don't tell anyone else)
So what is inversion? Something to do with the atmosphere I assume?
I will tell you also to put it in blonde terms (although I have the same disease:). Inversion is all the pollution that settles in the valley basically during the cooler months. Typically when it snows or rains, it clears it out. Smog would maybe be another term but not totally the same.
BRITTA---it is very bad to run outside in the inversion when you have asthma! Be careful. if it gets any worse, I will ban my husband from outdoor running (he will be mad). But it is NOT GOOD for even those of us without breathing problems. Take your medicine!
Ahhh---I gotta get to the bank before it closes! Dang, I get lost reading my e-mails sometimes.
Britta, I would NEVER think less of you! I can't spell, and I rarely know what some of the big words are that smart people use. Why do you think I had the dictionary link so fast?
Here's one for ya! I can't believe I am telling you guys this. I grew up in Utah and have lived here most of my adult life and still do not know the names of the freeways. I know there names I just don't know which is which. I just know were they all go. It makes my dad crazy. Ever time he gives me directions he tells me which freeway to get on and I still don't know which one to take unless he tells me where it goes.
Oh, and if it makes you feel any better, my brothers still sing Van Halen's song JUMP as MAXWELL JUMP because that is what I thought it said for the longest time.
Well, I-215 turns into I-80 at some point! It is confusing. I never use I-80. But, i grew up off of I-215, so I know I-215 and I-15. I am sure there are others. Plus there are all of the state roads that are like freeways. Scott knows them all and i get confused, too. BUT, I know two of them!
Sorry, I had to leave the conversation. My PERFECT 2 year old colored with dry erase markers on my faux painted wall. I had to run to the grocery store to get some Mr. Clean Magic Erasers. Worked like a charm. Those things are amazing.
Michelle, they do not work on fingernail polish, in case you are wondering!
