Half Marathon: 1:26:50, Hog's Back Half, November 2009 Short-Term Running Goals: Summer:
build to up 70+ miles per week, occasional core and races, follow Jake's school's summer training plan until about August when I'll focus more on the half marathon; new goal: under 17 for 5k. 16:30 for 5k by the end of the summer
Fall:
By next October I'm shooting to be under 1:20 for an Albany, NY half marathon.
Otherwise, just keeping up the miles so that I'm healthy, and possibly competitive, for a long time to come. Long-Term Running Goals: Eventually I would like to run a marathon, hopefully going under 3 hours, maybe significantly so. I'll think about that one when it's more in sight. I hope to continue improving my 5k time in the meantime.
Personal: I'm an undergraduate at Brown University and part of the running club there. I'm told I should read Once a Runner, especially now that it's in print again... We'll see if that happens. Ok, so I read it, haha. It's awesome.

| | i measured this off time. it was super hot again (why always hot on the long days??? bah). i was out for about 1:22:30, figured i'd call it 7:30 pace and i'd get in at least the 11. but it sucked, i ended up doing 3 out and 3 back for 6, stopping the watch, getting water and cooling off for a bit, and then going out to do the remaining 5, starting the watch from where i left off. Oh! and the worst part was i had spent the day throwing a frisbee and hardcore tubing behind a jetski in the sun, so i was tired.. my friends napped, i ran 11 miles lol | | Comments(1) |

fartlek day with jake: 3x4min on, 4 min off (off being regular run pace, not slower than 8-min)
pace at half-mile for first and third (and probably second, but we didn't get to start at a half-mile marker for that one) was under 2:40; that's sub 5:20 pace for 4 min intervals XD... pro lol.. anyway, the first was hard, wasn't quite warm, but the other two were decent.
probably going to double on saturday instead of do one long run so that the Sunday race isn't totally screwed... originally the two days were reversed, but because of the timing of the public race we made the change...
just got the half-marathon plan from my HS coach; much more distance-oriented than what i'm doing now, which is probably good. poor jake will have to run the workouts by himself after this week prolly lol (as will i) | | Comments(1) |
| | supposed to be easy with hills, didn't have time for hills though because of traffic coming home and dinner plans. ended up running it a little fast too.. i'm tired today, but that's just because of a lack of sleep. Friday is off, get to recoup | | Comments(1) |
