52 Days to Go

5 miles, 32 degrees. I didn't time this run as it was just a question of getting the miles in, my legs did feel tired after the long run this past weekend.

54 Days to Go

8 miles, treadmill, 9:00 pace. That's 25 miles in two days! My legs felt heavy and sore today after the 17 miles yesterday, but I still managed to push my way through the 8 today. It's good to know that I can run a marathon distance over 2 days. At this point I feel that it's almost as much about the mental aspect of the race as it is the physical.

55 Days to Go ;()

17 miles!!! 37 degrees, 9:00 pace. This was a lot of fun, biting cold wind on the high ground, really needed to be wearing gloves, thankfully my support unit (Jenny) gave me her socks at mile 8 and they kept my hands nice and comfortable through the last nine.

Picture taken about mile 8!!!

57 Days to Go

4 miles, treadmill, 8:45 pace. Didn't feel much like running today but I managed to get in the numbers.

58 Days to Go !

8 miles, treadmill, 1% incline, 8:50 pace. Really wanted to run outside but when a squall came through I was glad to inside!

59 Days to Go :p

4 miles, treadmill, 1 degree incline, 8:30 pace. The training will be stepping up for the next few weeks. Long runs will be 17-20 miles and total weekly mileage will be over 40. I have to say that I'm very excited about this race and delighted at the way funds have been coming in, but I've still got a way to go before I hit that magic $2620 mark.

Lots of Miles Run!!!

233 Miles in training so far!

61 Days to Go

11 miles, treadmill, 8:40 pace. A little faster than I had wanted to run or was supposed to run, but on the treadmill boredom is a real problem so getting finished ASAP is a must!

62 Days to Go :)

7 miles, 27 degrees, 9:00 pace. Two minutes into the run it started to snow, brrrrr! By the time I was done the roads were very slick, it'll be the treadmill tomorrow!

64 Days to Go

4 miles, treadmill, 1% slope, 8:20 pace. Felt great.
