15 miles with a little bit crazy in the middle (1 mile - 2 mile - 1 mile at slightly slower than 10K pace, 4 and 7 minute recovery jogs and then 1 mile easy then 4 x 400 mile repeats with 400 meter recovery jogs).

I am beat! :)

Happy Wednesday. :)

9 easy miles, AP 9:09

With Boston in just over 10 weeks it is time to start my plyometric build-up.

Plyo:

Alt. Leg Bounding: 2 x 5

CMJs: 2 x 5

Single Leg Jumps: 2 x 5

Box Jumps 12": 2 x 5

Nothing too strenuous with good recovery time between. Concentrated on good form and short contact time.

16 miles, AP 8:16. The first 10.5 miles were with Ry! We had so much fun running in the rain. We were missing Smo big time but she is fighting a cold. She wanted to come but she has had this cold for over a week now. Poor thing. :)

Seriously considering moving to St. George. We will probably head down in a few weeks to look at houses and watch the high school basketball teams down there compete in State.

Woke up feeling really dizzy and as if I got hit by a bus. It's so easy to pick up a bug while working at the hospital. :-(

No run.

The plan was to run 18 miles. Ran on the JRP with Ry and Ben. Sadly I felt awful throughout. It was crazy windy. The whole time I felt dizzy and weak. Called it quits at 10.2 miles. AP was 8:53.

Made up the 18 miles that I was supposed to run on Sunday! :)

Mostly easy with a bit of crazy in the middle: 4 x (800 m, 600 m, 400 m, 200 m) at 5K pace, 1 minute recovery, 5 minutes between sets. Each set was done at a progressively faster pace: 6:59, 6:54, 6:49, 6:45. Also threw in a couple of 400s (1:30 each) during the last couple of miles to work on running fast on tired legs.

Definitely exhausted when I was finished.

Zero running. Trying to get our house reading to put of for sell. Functioning on very little sleep.

Zero again. Had several last minute things that had to be done to have the house ready to show. Left in the afternoon down to sunny St. George to house hunt. It's getting to "we're getting serious" time.

8 miles with Ry and Smo (Smo did 5) exploring the trails in the backyard of a house we are considering putting an offer in on. To have this in your backyard would be heavenly! Smo was in her element. Great day! :)
