What did you do?

[psherman42]

I did 3.92 miles yesterday in 46:39. Last year I was training for Dumbo and Wine and Dine whereas this year I'm only doing Wine and Dine, but I just feel so far behind where I was last year and it's mildly disappointing. Like my pace is about the same and my work schedule is ore sporadic than last summer but I haven't done more than 4 miles since Wine and Dine.

First official week of Paris training done. 5 miles yesterday in the morning followed by golf in the afternoon. That's my cross-training.

10.25m @ 10:18. PR for distance. Time included 3min pit stop in supermarket for bathroom break. Do you guys usually keep the clock running in such cases? Seems like I should since I'm getting the benefit of the rest time.

My third 10+ mile run!

After my summer job last night my training schedule called for 9.5 miles which I ran at a sub 8min pace. I started at 9pm and when I was done I ate an entire boardwalk pizza - needed the carbs.

Today was a hard lift following by bodysurfing throughout the day! Love where you live!!

Over eating after a long run is what triggered my first (and only) gall bladder attack. Be careful. It was the worst night ever and I had to call in sick to work for the first time in10 years. As soon as Tinker Bell (which I was training for at the time) was done I had it out.

25 minutes on bike after 30 minute workout session with trainer. Who is traveling to NY this weekend for a wedding in Long Island. @JillC LI, wouldn't it be funny if you were both attending the same wedding?

That's funny. Actually I left Long Island for a wedding in Westchester. And I did squeeze in 4 miles on the TM while I was there.

I don't know. Interestingly, I've never taken an indoor bathroom break during a run. Occasionally during my marathon training (on runs over 2+ hours), I made use of a tree in the woods (TMI - LOL), and I didn't stop the clock for that.

I'm so so so jealous you're doing Paris! Ah I wish I could have afforded to go.

I pause the Garmin if I stop during training runs. More interested in my pace even with the longer break.

2.75@2i, 5x(1/4@6:48+1/4@7:30) + 1/4@6:48

I'd keep it going. Clock at a race doesn't stop. While you may be shooting for a per mile pace, I think that real world scenario takes precedence over pure pace. Helps motivate you to "go" faster.

I guess opinions vary. I did get into the sky, and in and out in 3 minutes.

3.5 miles on TM last night. Gradually trying to pick up the pace to where I was pre-injury. The fact that I've dropped a few pounds that I put on when I couldn't run definitely helps.
Approaching that fun 180 day mark when I can make ADRs!

Short jog today. My phone ran out of juice last night, so my alarm didn't go off and I ended up oversleeping by 45 mins. I'm impressed I managed to get anything at all in.

They definitely do. When it comes down it, it is your run, and your training. Do whatever works best for you.

Great job crew!

Trained chest and triceps today, then a 7miler on the beach, easy run pace. The beauty of beach running is the salty shower right after- waves for days here!

After a day off yesterday, 4 miles at 2 incline and a pace of about 9:40. Surprisingly hard today. So sweaty outside I decided to run inside. And still I was soaked.

Always a positive.

1.5 miles on elliptical (level 13/20) prior to my workout with my trainer. Now that it has got hot for the summer running outside isn't nearly as fun. Need my short run tomorrow and hoping I can get it in before it is 90!

 

[JillC LI]

Early morning run today: 3.6 miles. The heavy humidity made it feel like running through a bowl of soup. Disgusting.

Bike today

Swam, um, I mean ran 3 miles today as planned. Tried to beat the 95F temps, but only barely. My first two miles were fine but by the third I was a soaking mess! Should have used the treadmill.
