| Had a good first 10 then kind of died but good for my first race, detail later
A race is always open for good learning experiences, I learned I am not on top of my mental game. Or wait I already kind of knew that:) I knew going in this race that I am not were I was last year at this time and mentally I am drained from my past few weeks of Jade being in the hospital. So all in all this was a good effort with a crash and burn finish, but a reminder that I need to get on top of my mental game and finish stroger in the next race. I felt good the first part but struggled out of the canyon and just got comlacent with not doing as well as last year. Probably started to fast but I felt good and was not paying attention to my splits just running off feel, but I kind of knew it was to fast because Rebecca was behind me the first 5 miles or so and seceretly I was hoping that some magic would happen and I would be able to finish as strong as I did last year. Struggled with icky stomach so I didn't take any fuel in which is not good for me. Did a 2 mile warmup with my ladies and a 2 mile cool down with Angie and Janae and we ran the last half mile in with Ericka.
splits-6:09, 6:17, 6:27, music died 6:21, 6:22, 6:17, 6:27, out of the canyon 6:45, 6:45, 6:49, 7:00 ugg the hill was my doing in, 6:55, 6:50, 6:29 pace for the last .13
so not a great race but not to bad for my 1st half of the season

| Easy long run:) felt good! Started at Vintage with Janae and Rebecca we went up the path 7.3 then down to the finish then back to vintage. Took it pretty easy going up then just ran comfortable going down and finished strong back to the cars. Iced in the river after, it was actually quite refreshing.
2:50/7:43 avg pace for 22 the 1st mile was a 9:16 so I'll take that out:)

| Fatigue intervals-8 mile warmup at an 8:00 pace minus the 1st mile then 3x1600 on the track at 20-25 sec faster than marathon pace my goal was 6:20ish. We had a wicked head wind on one side but I didn't feel it helping on the other. 6:25, 6:15, 6:20 these were hard I was tired but the 1st one was the hardest the next two I made myself stay with the girls so we could take turns leading and get the draft when I wasn't. Then finished with the center st. hill sprinting up.
15 miles @7:49 avg
Then I struggled through a HiiT workout

| Good marathon pace effort I knew when I signed up for this that it would just be a workout and that is all my legs had in them anyways but makes me feel like I should be able to run this race x2 for UVM. Let's hope its a good day:) Warmed up about a mile and a half some with AmyC then started the race. Just wanted to keep it really comfortable the 1st 4 miles around the dam then push the down hill, legs didn't have the push I wanted on the down so just kept it at mp then felt like I finihsed strong for the end of this course passing 2 girls and several men.
splits-6:50, 6:47, 6:43, 6:43, 6:31, 6:41, 6:44, 6:38, 6:29, 6:37, 6:48, 6:55, 6:52, :55 for the last .14 (6:27 pace)
Then I ran back to mile 23 and cheered on the marathoners and ran McKenzie and Aubs in the last 3.5 pushing Aubery the last couple miles. Fun day:)

| Man marathon training is tiring and my legs are feeling it, both Rebecca and and myself where not in the mood to do a workout but we reminded ourselves that this is how it is training with high miles so we went over to the track, after a 3 mile warmup in the wind we ended up at the track with a bad wind. Ugh same as last week, we agreed to try and see how we felt because most of the time we will come out of the funk and have a good workout. We wanted to do 8x800 we ened up with 4x800 and 4x400. 2:57, 2:59, 3:00, 3:03, 1:27, 1:28, 1:29,1:23

| If you want to clean yourself out and have multiple poop stops then drink beet juice before a run. I have heard all these great things about beet juice and endurance athletes so I had to try. Had about 8 oz well I felt great on the run and felt like I could have gone 10 more miles it was a total bowel cleanse at the same time. Next time I will try the beet shots they are suppose to be less harsh on the bowels. Anyway drove up to the start of the marathon and warmed up 1.5 then did some tempo stuff mine was broken up because of the bathroom stops but got some solid MP mile (will put then in later) and finished the last 3.5 at a good pace. Iced in the river.
6:36, 6:34, 6:42, 6:46, 6:48, 6:59 (stopped at the end of this mile and shedded jacket and gloves plus fueled) 7:48 potty stop and start of the rolling hills, 7:10, 6:52, 7:29 potty stop, 7:12, 7:06, 7:20, 7:12, then a break and last 3 miles 7:04, 7:02, 6:53, 6:57 last .5

| Super tough workout-the michigain- 1600 5k pace strait into 1.5 MP strait into 1200 5kpace into 1.5 MP into 800 5k pace into 1 mile mp into 400 all out. ended up doing the last 10k of the course and running out of room so the all out came at the end of the mile but this is definatly a workout that makes you feel like you are at the end of the marathon and is very challanging. 2 mile warmup then 6:09, 6:42, 3:19 (6:43 pace for half mile), 4:40 (6:18 pace), 6:50 (cc hill), 3:20 (6:42 pace), 3:16 (6:34 pace legs felt like mud), 7:00 flat last mile killer! sprinted the last bit at a 6:00 pace for about .2 so a total of 6.25 miles of fast without a break. then it was 4 miles of uphill back to the car and we were tired.
