Master 2146 East Side of the Bay | Subject: RE: Women's May Challenge Thread I've gotten in a short swim and strength today. Still have to figure out my goals. I think I will take Judi's approach and just do # of sessions. I have a call weekend this month and need to figure out what other days look too crazy to get a workout in. I'll get it posted tonight. I am still trying to catch up from my week away. Lots to do at home (buy food soon!!) and work!! Catch up kinda takes the fun out of vacation :-P |

Champion 7931 Sequim, Washington | Subject: RE: Women's May Challenge Thread billsorg - 2010-05-04 11:37 AM well...they totally hyped up that it was the flattest and fastest course around. It was fairly flat and absolutely gorgeous! The cool thing about the walk run strategy is that I got to see the same awesome pace booty again and again. mchally - 2010-05-04 1:32 PM Well, I started my month off with a half marathon. My first serious half...the first I did in November and I was keeping a friend company and it was a lot of walking with some easier jogging. i managed to do this one without any run training (I had gotten in a fair bit of swimming and biking though). I devised a strategy during the first mile of the run. I did run walk intervals. I walked the first 1.5 to 2 minutes of miles 2-9, the first minute of miles 10 and 11 and then ran through the end. It worked really well. I think that I was running at about an 8:30 pace, my average pace for the half was 9:12 or so. My goal had been to finish without injuring myself and planned on taking a bit under 3 hours. My finish time was 2:00:04! Very excited. Tempted to never train in the run again...I always end up injuring myself. Probably a bad idea though. I just need to train smarter. OK Mel, rub it in, why don't ya! I trained for 2 months and finished my half mary in 2:06!  Kidding, of course. Congratulations! I've heard some very compelling stories about the run/walk strategy when doing marathons.  |

Elite 3913 far northern CA | Subject: RE: Women's May Challenge Thread This is totally copied from my log. I don't care. Damn. It won't copy. I had a crappy day. Baby got hit by projectile vomit by another kid. Doctor said we will know in 5 to 7 days if he catches the bug. A friend of mine, who is like a dad, had a mild heartattack last night. He is stable right now but will be having surgery on Wednesday morning. I missed my Tuesday run. |
