Running for a Reason: October 2008
http://cloudq.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 27, 2008. So I did the 9 this past weekend with speed in mind and I think.with the confidence from finishing the previous two long runs without any problems besides normal fatigue and stiffness AND the slightly shorter distance.that I was able to run much closer to a 10-min mile. If you're interested in upcoming Team in Training events, I just got my mailer a week or so ago and here's the stuff to choose from during the spring season:. Wednesday, October 8, 2008.

Running for a Reason: December 2008
http://cloudq.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 1, 2008. Race Report - Atlanta Half Marathon. I went out hard at the beginning, in part for adrenaline, part for confidence, part for warmth and part for wanting to not tick off all the other starters in my group who belonged there! Probably I'd have gone faster overall if I'd started slower. I know how these things work - but I just had to do it anyway. I guess my confidence got the better of me? Did away with the cotton long sleeve T-shirt - what a great move! There were fewer people c...

Running for a Reason: Gearing Up for Atlanta Half Marathon
http://cloudq.blogspot.com/2008/10/gearing-up-for-atlanta-half-marathon.html
Wednesday, October 8, 2008. Gearing Up for Atlanta Half Marathon. Due to the knee injury in August my training routine has been "alternative" to say the least. To avoid another stress injury I am all but cutting out the short runs during the week, usually substituting swimming for the cardio. Anyway, I'm sure some speed training would be good - so they don't roll up the sidewalks on me on race day! Labels: 13.1 miles. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Running for a Reason: November 2008
http://cloudq.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 11, 2008. Last Long Run Before the BIG One. So this weekend is the last long run before the Atlanta Half. Somewhere during the last year I lost major speed and I have no idea where I put it. I keep thinking it will turn back up but so far it eludes me. Just like my car keys in the morning. Another by-product of menopause I guess :). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Landscape Design - Environmentally Responsible. Lockerroom Chatter - She Runs Online. Last Long Run Before the BIG One.

Running for a Reason: More on Last Blog
http://cloudq.blogspot.com/2008/09/more-on-last-blog.html
Tuesday, September 23, 2008. More on Last Blog. I skipped a step between the post at the end of August and the one earlier today. I should have filled in the blanks for you guys reading this:. At the end of August I went to do that long run and couldn't make 8 miles - I had to stop after 6 :(. 4 days later I was still limping so I go to my trusty orthopaedic who says "Lay off it for 3 weeks" like it was as easy as skipping desert just one night! Please comment on this also. More on Last Blog.

http://cloudq.blogspot.com/2008/08/less-than-8-weeks-until-my-fourth-half.html
Wednesday, August 27, 2008. Less than 8 weeks until my fourth half marathon, and I’m going to count the weeks down in this blog. I’d like to say I’m a great runner but I’m not. At 47, I putz around the event courses like a woman in a more, how shall we say, senior division? And 75% of whatever I raise goes directly to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. That’s a great ratio. If you know a woman who could benefit in her body or her soul, or both, please tell her about Team in Training. Middle-aged female m...
