The Week of Rain and Low Motivation

saturday

This past week was a really tough one for staying motivated. It rained ALL week. I think we had about 10 days of clouds/rain/cooler weather just when May arrived and we were expecting the weather to be warming up. Part of my problem was that I didn't go into the week with a real plan, so each morning I woke up and wasted time considering what my workout for the day would be (usually while listening to the rain come ...

Monthly Check-In: April 2016

april

I know I am a few days late, but now that April is over it's time to check in on my goals. I feel like this month flew by! The next few months will continue to be busy so I don't anticipate these months slowing down any time soon. You can read my other 2016 updates here: January  February March Summary of April: This month was really busy. I started out the first weekend in April with a trip to ... Read the Post...

Running, Sitting, and Low Back Pain {Guest Post}

low back pain and running

Today I am sharing some words of wisdom from my chiropractor, Dr. Blake Kalkstein. I have been seeing Dr. Blake for about a year for adjustments, ART, and rehab exercises. If anyone in the northern Baltimore area is looking for a chiropractor I would definitely recommend him! They even take walk-ins so I can just stop by after work if something is bothering me and get seen really quickly. Oh, and he is also a runner! ... Read the Post...

Weekly Wrap: Bridal Shower Weekend and Half-Marathon Ready

hills

A few weeks ago I started thinking about maybe signing up for a half-marathon in May. It would be two weeks from this past weekend, so I didn't want to do a long run or hard workout next weekend. However, I haven't really been doing long runs and I figured I would feel better about it if I got in a 10 miler before the race. I also wanted to make sure I was incorporating hills because the race I am eyeing is very hilly. So ... Read the Post...

15 mile long run workout this morning! Honestly, e 15 mile long run workout this morning! Honestly, every step of this felt challenging, so I’m pretty happy that I still hit my paces. I’m going to blame it on the humidity. WHY is it still so warm and humid when it’s almost October 😩🥵 I made the mistake of leaving my hair in a ponytail so of course it was a tangled mess by the time I was done. When will I learn? Just glad I got this done to wrap up week 9 of @richmondmarathon training! Is it still humid where you are? #run #marathontraining #richmondmarathon #longrun
Yesterday’s’ long run was 16 miles with 6 x 1 Yesterday’s’ long run was 16 miles with 6 x 1 mile MP/1 mile easy. I took a few hours of PTO in the morning to do this on the trail because I knew wouldn’t be able to do it this weekend. This was my first time on the trail since my marathon last November. It was nice to be back there and the perfect place to do this kind of long run. It was the kind of run where you start thinking “ok cool I just did a tough MP workout” but then you remember you actually need to run 26 miles in a row at that pace. Luckily there’s still 9 more weeks of training…although that doesn’t really sound like that much!
41 miles for the week and got in 2 strength sessions. Taking it easy this weekend other than chasing the kids around for all their activities! #run #marathontraining #longrun
It’s kind of freeing to not care about pace. It It’s kind of freeing to not care about pace. It is a little frustrating to have to plan more time for an easy run. But it’s definitely worth it to recover quicker and feel better on workout days! #run #marathongtraining #easyrun
You know marathon training is starting to get real You know marathon training is starting to get real when you start losing track of what training week it is. I had to check my calendar but this was week 6, so 10 weeks to go! 

I ran the Charles Street 12 last weekend so this week was all about easy miles and recovering from the race. That went well until I went and ran all the hills yesterday followed by walking around a maze and fun park for 5 hours. I got in some strength and mobility this morning and now I’m back to focusing on recovery!

If you’re training for a race how many weeks do you have left?
