| This morning my partner and I ran a good 10 mile pace run. She wants to run her 26.2 in 3:30 so we have been doing pace runs at and 8:00 mpm. Today we ran 8:04 mpm. and we both felt pretty good. I want to run a 3:40 so I feel ahead of the game. I read in Runners world about the goon within that takes over sometimes and gets us to believe we can't do it. Today if the thought came into my mind that I wasn't sure I could keep up the pace I would repeat " go away goon go away"!!!! | |

| Awesome!!!! Awesome!!!! We ran so well today. We even ran a negative split. First 10..1:32 last 10...1:24. I think our average was 8:51. I felt so good today and pushed the last mile for an 8:06. I felt really positive. I kept thinking to myself "okay prepare for the last 2 miles to hurt" and then I chased that thought away with "you feel great and the last two miles are NOT going to hurt." I am trying so hard to always be postive. I know how much of a difference it truly makes. Today was one of those days that I could have kept on going. In training for 4 marathons I have never had a 20 feel that good!!! Yeah!!!!! | |

Tried new pair of shorts today. They are really cute and I wanted to wear them for the marathon but they are not comfortable. Good thing I tried them out before M day. I felt good today. I have not been using my inhaler because I really haven't felt a need for it. I can't decide wether I will use is on M day. We averaged 8:45 mpm, pretty good for taking it easy.

| 6xhills. We cheated today. We didn't do a warm up or cool down. We just busted out our hills so we could climb back in bed before our kids woke up. | |

Only 4 today!! Is taper time hard for anyone else? I felt really good today and could have kept on going. I am trying to stick to my Hal Higdon program but it is hard not to do the high mileage. I don't mind not having to wake up so early but I miss longer weekly runs.
The last mile coming to my house is up hill the whole way we usually run it in 8:20 today we ran 7:51. Yeah!!!!
Averaged 7:41 mpm. | |

30 min. tempo run today. It was chilly this morning. I felt good and did not need my inhaler.
My baby broke his leg by simply falling off the couch. He is in a cast from toes to hip. The doctor said he would not be able to walk, but I knew my little guy would figure it out some how. The cast has not slowed him down at all. (Yeah for me, my life would have been miserable if he couldn't get around) We call him "little pirate". He sounds and looks like he has a peg leg!!!! | |

It was a nice run this morning. I felt super slow but I guess that is okay.
I love my running partner and our "girl talk". It is so nice to get up and have "therapy" and exercise all in one. It makes me a better mom and wife. Thanks Alisa!!!!! | |

PANIC!!!!! No I am not going to panic!!
My husband and my 4 year old are sick! They both threw up late last night so I headed down to sleep in the guest room to get away from them. When I came up this morning and discovered my daughter threw up 5 more times and my husband 3 more. I felt so bad, I had abandoned them.
I was thinking that it was just food poisoning with their symptoms until I went to get my baby out of bed and he had thrown up in the middle of the night as well. I felt so bad that nobody heard him puke or new he was even sick.
The baby seems fine today and has even been eating. My husband and daughter are keeping liquids down so that is encouraging.
I am washing my hands and praying a ton.
I can't get sick! I won't get sick!!!
Evening...Ran 2.5 miles. Ran 3x400 in the mix. Averaged 8:20. | |
