Weekend Highlights: Boston, Cape Cod, and RRCA Coaching Course

I feel like its been forever since I sat down to blog! It's been a crazy week but so amazing! Of course I want to talk in detail about the RRCA Coaching Certification Course at some point, but there is just too much in my head right now to make any sense of it and form a coherent blog post. Instead, I thought I would share some highlights from the long weekend! I left for Boston on Wednesday evening, and Alli (the ... Read the Post...

Thinking Out Loud # 8

It’s Thursday again so time to link up with Running with Spoons for Thursdays are for Thinking Out Loud! I have quite a bit of randomness coming at you today, but actually this post was pre-written since I’ll be on my way to Cape Cod for the RRCA training on Thursday morning! 1.

Initial Marathon Training Thoughts

Mile by Mile Running

After yesterday’s post, it got me thinking about my own plans for training for the Philly Marathon. Since it’s later in the season, I have a little more time before I need to start training. However, I have already decided about some things I am going to do that are same or different from how I have trained for marathons in the past. I keep a pretty detailed excel file with my workouts, so its easy to look back and see ... 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?
