When In Doubt, Run It Out

Between the time change, election stress, and rising COVID numbers, it felt like quite a week around here. The best way I know of to deal with stress is by running! When in doubt, run it out.

What a week it's been. Between adjusting to the time change, election stress, and spiking COVID numbers, it felt like it was just one thing after another. When it doubt, run it out. Or something like that. The beginning of the week feels like it was a month ago. Oh and it went from feeling like winter with temps in the 30s and 25 mph winds to feeling like summer with warm 70 degree days. What is happening? Weekly Run ... Read the Post...

Reflections After a 36 Day Run Streak

After my 36 day run streak, there are a few things I would do differently. Here is what I learned from my first run streak and tips what how to plan your runs if you decide to try a run streak.

Now that my run streak is over, I thought I would share a little bit about how it went. This was my first run streak (that was intentional) because I've always been really nervous to miss out on regular rest days. I thought I would talk a little bit about why I did this run streak, how it went, and what I would do differently if I decided to do another run streak in the future. Why Did I Decide to Do a Run ...

The Final Week of Rundestober

I made it through my final week of Rundestober, which was my run streak for October! (Plus the 5 days I ran at the end of September). Our weather this week was not great and I was on the treadmill more than I would have liked. Considering we had great weather the rest of this month, I can't really complain. Let's take a look at how the week went. The Final Week of Rundestober Monday: Strength Training + 3 Treadmill ... Read the Post...

Best Tips for Running in the Dark

Morning or evening runners often find themselves running in the dark during many months of the year. You can still get in your run even when it’s dark out. There are just some safety tips you need to keep in mind. Here are the best tips for running in the dark.

As you probably know, I've been a morning runner for years now. Once I realized how much I prefer to wake up and get it done, I never looked back. Often times that means running in the dark. While I would prefer daylight or at least a sunrise, we are getting to the point in the year where that doesn't happen before at least 7am. I thought I would share some tips for running in the dark in case you are wondering how to get ... 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?
