Another treadmill workout.  total time 50:10 Total miles 6.  Pace average 8:21

15 minutes warm up. started at 10min pace.  then I increased 45 sec faster per pace every 5 minutes.  

25 minutes tempo.  started at 8:30 pace then increased on treadmill every minute.  When I got to around 7:10, I held it for a couple minutes and then lattered down every two minutes or so until 8:00 pace

10 minute cool down.  lattered down even more ending at 10 min pace.

overall I felt better on the mill today.  I have so much pent up energy!  I could have kept going but I have children who need me now.  :)

Type: Tempo Run  Total Time: 55 minutes.   Total Distance 6.17.  Pace Ave: 8:55 

Since this was a tempo run and not a speed training run, I focused on miles and not minute intervals.  The following are approximate times.  I don't remember exactly.

1- warm up around 10-9:50 pace

2 warm up 9:30 pace

3 increase pace 9:00

4 increase pace 8:30

5 Marathon pace just under 8:00

6 Marathon pace @ 8:00

6.17 cool down and hop off the treadmill.  I was supposed to cool down 2 miles but get too bored.  I did run 5 minutes more total on the treadmill this time!  I'm proud about that.  It's BABY STEPS for me.  :)

Aubree and I ran OUTSIDE today!!!   I started in my SKI CLOTHES for the first 2 miles.  Temps were in the single digits.  I had so many layers on that I started sweating underneath.  We took a kinda of long break becasue I needed to readjust my layering.  A balaclava would have been nice but I made do with a hat and neck gator.  I'm so PROUD of us for running 8 more miles!  Our warm up pace was around 11 min/mile.  We ran around 9:30 steady for the last 8.  I only slipped on ice one time.  I started getting really cold again the last few miles.  My fingers are STILL NUMB right now and it is kind of hard to type.  I know we are crazy but it felt so good to finally be outside!
