Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

I have ran numerous 5k's. The funnest I think was the anywhere anytime race held in IF in January. You only know the day, they text you the time & you don't know the distance until you're done. Super fun! The other one was the cerebrun in PA. It was a 7-10 mile race with obstacle courses & the distance was determined on the path you took which was decided on your answer to crazy questions. I have ran 1 10k & got hurt 2 miles into my 2nd. I am finally back at it after a 6 months hiatus. 

Short-Term Running Goals:

This year I want to do a race each month, building up to complete a few half marathons & at least one marathon in 2016.

Long-Term Running Goals:

My goal is to run as long as my body will tolerate it. 

Personal:

I run to stay sane. I consider my runs my "me time". I am single & the mother of a furbaby who goes on my shorter runs with me, she can make it about 3 miles & she is spent. She's a great running partner.

Today was windy outside & a few farmers were out tilling the ground so the dust didn't help the asthma. I lost my inhaler at the begining of the run (found it about 1/2 mile from my house on the road, but don't know if it's working condition still). I planned on usingm my inhaler after one hour but it was still lost at that point so I had to take 1 minute breaks each mile after 6.5 miles. Pretty good practice run with the typical Idaho wind though.

Somehow according to the scale I managed to gain 6 pounds while running my butt off, I'm going with the excuse it's just muscle. 

Mile 1: 6.0

Mile 2: 6.1

Mile 3-8: 6.6 with a 3 minute break every 2 miles 

Mile 9: 6.0

I'm feeling less fatigued after my long runs which is awesome. My last run I could tell the difference between a 9 min pace vs a 10 vs a 10:30 which is awesome. Progress! I'm learning pacing!
