12 miles with Shelbey! Ry ran the first 4 with us but has been getting over a cold so called it good at that point.

A little drizzle but nothing heavy. Temps actually felt pretty dang good! Bloomington Trail then Summit loop. LOVE running with Shelbey! She signed up for her first marathon on May 7th! I really think she could BQ on her first full! Crazy how easy running comes to her. She was a collegiate soccer player so totally makes sense! She is freaking amazing.

Everything felt nice and easy. Ran our first half really easy with an average pace of 8:50 (just grabbed the whole time felt really good). Ran the second half faster at an 8:17 pace, but still felt really comfortable. Conversation never waned and we threw in a couple of marathon paced miles still gabbing away! NICE!

Got home, hopped on the TM for one more mile because I wanted 13 today. Need to hit 39+ miles this week. Wanted 35 last week and barely hit it. I have run marathons on as little as peaking at 36 miles per week, and as high as an 83 miles per week peak. I think this time around I will shoot towards something in the middle, 60 miles per week peak sounds pretty okay to me. We will see! :-)

Skier crunches 3 x 15

Happy new week, All! :-)

Teena, tell me more about this marathon that is supposedly way faster than SGM. how is that possible with SGM being mostly downhill and it will be warm in Vegas in May?

Yeah I already went to the web site. If it's not too hot a day it looks speedy. I'm pacing my buddy at Phoenix marathon end of this month. He's trying to BQ. I already told him if he doesn't we should do that race.
