Well this week was the epitome of peaks and valleys.
I only managed (for various reasons/excuses) three runs this week. The first was my workout on Wednesday (more below). The second was my long run on Friday (11 miles). And the third was the dual 5k legs of the Minneapolis Duathlon on Sunday.

Last week was a mixed bag. Overall I feel really good about how the runs felt and got done. Then again I repeated the 37 mile week from the week before instead of getting to 45 like I planned. I feel okay about this because I responded to how my legs felt instead of forcing [...]

With summer officially over and classes starting I thought it was about time to tell you all how it ended here in MN. The week consisted of two very solid workouts. The first was a R pace track workout with 200s and 400s on a beautiful Tuesday afternoon. I “had” to stay in lane one [...]

Generally, we are told to stay away from milk on the morning of a race but today I just couldn’t help myself. I started my day with a bowl of Cheerios and then further hexed myself by going to a race entitled “2008 Milk Run 5k”. It was doomed from the beginning right? For me [...]
