I'm really proud of the 3:26 I did on the 10. 106 mi warm up-10:34. 10 X 800s (with 60 to 90 seconds rest in between each one). 3:52, 3:36, 3:41, 3:43, 3:42, 3:40, 3:43, 3:35, 3:51, 3:26. 106 mi cool down-10:07.

Trying to keep the running mojo going without injury.: 2nd Run: "2 a Day Wednesday"
http://lisasbostondreams.blogspot.com/2013/08/2nd-run-2-day-wednesday.html
Thursday, August 15, 2013. 2nd Run: "2 a Day Wednesday". My 2nd run was with the former "C25'ers" soon to be half marathoners at The Middle Half. Duties. Needless to say, they set the bar high with decorating it a bit. They're UT fans so you can imagine. Very cool! Vicki who works in the beer industry brought a pick up truck full of beer to give away! FREE BEER after an NRC run! I'm not a beer drinker but I was blown away with what all they brought. So very cool! Friday, P90X ab ripper, stretching. Monum...

Race Report: Possum Trot 10K. Before I begin this report, I need to fill in some background details in order to provide some perspective. Instead of a possum, I was the roadkill! On March 17th I was delighted when I set a surprising new PR on the Publix Georgia Half Marathon. I set for 2013: Earn a mug at the Peachtree Road Race 10K.

Trying to keep the running mojo going without injury.: Freaking hills
http://lisasbostondreams.blogspot.com/2014/03/freaking-hills.html
Sunday, March 2, 2014. My mid week long run was 12.5 with some "fast boys" from NRC. Roy, Daryl, David, and David V. drug my hungry butt over our Wed night hilly route pretty much 2x. I made the mistake of not getting enough carbs Wed. We had to circle back to my car so I could grab something to eat. That particular mile was a 10:13. LOL! Overall it was an 8:50 pace. Considering how crappy I felt I'm ok with it. I felt a bit too tired in the end but it's been a hard week of running. Chickamauga '06 - 4:5...

Trying to keep the running mojo going without injury.: 20.2 mile training run
http://lisasbostondreams.blogspot.com/2014/02/202-mile-training-run.html
Monday, February 24, 2014. 202 mile training run. After doing about 4 hours of yoga last week and not running on Thursday or Friday, my legs were itching for a long run. The plan was for 20 miles, practice holding back on the front end, and practice fueling. It went well but it could've been better. All the hills were in the first 13 miles or so. I had company for about 14 of it thanks to Traci B. The week after Tom King I hope to do 22 miles as close to race pace as possible. My Personal Little PRs :P.

http://lisasbostondreams.blogspot.com/2013/08/172-miles-date-experiment.html
Saturday, August 17, 2013. 172 miles: "the date experiment". We are having some really good weather for August in middle TN. Usually in August, the overnight lows are in the 70's and the yards are brown. We've had so much rain this Spring/Summer that we've not had to water our back yard at all. What a nice "gift" in August! We call it "ass cramping" LOL! Overall, I'm pretty pleased with my pace. I never stopped my garmin at any of the refueling spots or when Traci and Mandy went to the Ravenwood port...
