I had this grand plan this morning to take my son to preschool and go and do 4x downhill mile repeats. On the way I rear ened a super nice boy and smashed my radiator so I had to take my car to the shop so I just ran from their. Luckily I didn't do anything to his super sturdy bumper and he was so concerned about me and kept asking if it was his fault (it was clearly mine, my foot slipped off the brake twice) then he gave me a hug and checked my car out and said I needed to take it to get checked. Man I love nice people (he reminded me of Cam).  Anyway I still did some mile repeats, not as fast as I had hoped but I got them done. 6:14, 6:09, 6:09. Then I had to book it back to the car place to get my son so it was a tempo effort back to the car, about 3.5 miles. Oh and in the beginning of my run I ran into Marie so I ran with her for a couple miles. Crazy morning!

1:45:31/7:39 I can't wear my HR monitor because it gave me a huge sore so that is healing

Long runs have been a struggle for me lately. That being said I still got out there and ran 19.5 miles at an 8:00 avg so I should not complain. Today's run was in memory of Meg, she was hit and killed  last year running. I feel lucky to be able to run even if it was hard. First part was with Rebecca then we picked up Janae and ran some more then we dropped off Rebecca and ran up the canyon then I dropped off Janae and had 1/2 mile to make it 18 some how in my tired stuper I did 2 more.

Drove up to the bottom if SF with Rebecca, Mac, Amber, Aubs, and Rachelle. We ran to the top then back down got on the path. The path was covered with snow so after about a mile and a half we got on the road until BVF then got back on the path. First long run in a while I have felt good. Foot is bugging me a little bit, I think I just need to keep my miles between 45-50 it seems to do good in that

This week is a recovery week so I'm scaling things way down plus my foot is acting up so hopefully the mileage cut will help that out. 

Did 35 mins of spin and then ran out in the warm sunshine 8:08 avg pace.

i don't know what to think about my foot... Guess I'll take a few days off and be super aggressive with treating it and hope for the best.  Super bummed that my body won't let me go over 50 miles a week.

Met Rebecca and amanda at vasa and ran over to do the MTC mile backwards so up hill, did that 2x then the temple mile then the last one 8th south hill so 4 total. My foot is feeling so so. I have had dr Bennet and dr brady work on it as my own daily therapy and it didn't hurt but was a little sore after. I feel like I've been set back 2 months with it, where it's not bad it's still there and a worry and I'm back to doing daily care for it:( oh well thus the life of a marathoner. 

8:07 avg 

HIIT  then bike 25 mins while doing some upper body weights

Foot felt great! Met Janae at the soccer park, we ran up the canyon 6.4 then turned and did a 5 mile tempo @7:03 avg pace, 35:15, then easy the rest. Felt pretty good but was tired by the end.
