Learning to Let Go of the Stress of Training

Mile by Mile Running

In following up from yesterdays' post, I am talking today about my efforts in learning to "Let go" of the physical and mental stress from running and training. I promise I won't be talking about this stuff every day until November 23rd. It was too much to include everything in yesterday's post, and this will be more specific to how I spent my Sunday combating the effects of training. Obviously one day won't make 10 ...

The Final Stretch- Positivity and Relaxation

pre race

Monday again already? How did that happen? Last week was crazy busy and I was running around pretty much all day Saturday (literally running 16 miles and then running around doing errands) but Sunday was finally a day to relax. Of course days like that go way too fast! As I am moving into the final stretch of training (4 weeks to go!) I have been thinking about what I need to focus on to make it to the start line ...

Philadelphia Marathon Training Week 10

monday

Week 10 is complete which is kind of scary because that means there are only 4 more weeks to go! And only one more week until I start to taper! This training cycle has gone much faster than others so far and that is most likely because 14 weeks of training is less than the 16-18 I have done in the past. I guess we will see if it makes a difference on November 23, but at this point I am glad I am not sick of the whole ... Read the Post...

Meal Planning And Prep Week Of 10/19-10/25

Mile by Mile Running

Last week I didn't do as much meal prep as I would have liked, but I was exhausted from the half-marathon on Saturday and an overall busy weekend. Maybe that was one reason why this week was extra crazy. Oh well, we survived and now it's time to enjoy the weekend! Meal Planning And Prep Week Of 10/19-10/25 Here is how the meal plan for the week looked: Sunday: Salmon, crunchy cashew thai quinoa ... Read the Post...

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?

15 miles, over 1,100 feet of elevation gain, and 9 15 miles, over 1,100 feet of elevation gain, and 91% humidity 🫠 Pretty sure that was harder than my race last weekend, but got it done. Now off to my second workout of the day- taking the kids to an outdoor fun park. RIP to my legs. 
What are you up to this weekend?
