New Training

I started a new training this week. Tuesday I ran 8-400's at about 1:30 each, Thursday I ran 1mile warm 3miles at 7:00 per mile and 1 warm down, Today I ran 6 miles at 7:30. So I need to run short fast on dayone, longer faster on day two and endurance run on day 3. I will try to keep this up through the winter for the Frozen Feat 10k. I had a bit of a turkey hangover today. Did not feel the energy.

Catching up

I ran 6 miles on Monday, 5 on wednesday and 6 again on Friday. I should be able to make it over 20 if I can make it out on Sunday.

Saturday Run

It was such a nice day that I ran 10.2 miles after Thomas' b-ball game. Finished in about 1hr 18min.

Thursday run

I ran with the dogs a nice 6 mile run in the mist in 45 min. I was very nice and calm.

Tuesday Run

I ran after work with the dogs. Rosebud came with us on the leash for the first 2 miles. We dropped her off at home on the way by and then ran another 3 miles. Total of 5 miles in about 36:45. Maybe do some biking tomorrow after I clean the horse barn.

Sunday run and bike

I ran 6 miles in 45:15 at about 10:30. Then I cleaned the gutters of our house and cultivated the garden to get it ready for winter. The boys had a friend over and they wanted to go to Turtle River Park to do some Mountain biking. We rode about 6-7 miles on our bike and called it a day. I may be a bit stiff tomorrow as I have not done much biking lately.

Rosebud Run

Rosebud ran 2 miles tonight. I ran a total of 6 miles in 45 min. It was a really nice night for a run. I'm looking at a new method of training. Running less running faster. It incorporates shorter faster training runs for two of the days and the traditional long run the last day. It also calls for two days of cross training which I would do on my bike either with a trainer or on the road. Less days of running, less total mileage, but more intense workouts. I think it will work for me as I have limited time for training and I don't handle high mileage very well.

Sunday run

I ran again today because I was not happy with my 5k time yesterday. 2 minutes is a lot of time to lose in a 5k from 19:30 in May to 21:19 in October. I ran 6 miles in 45:09. Nice day for running.

Red Shoe 5k

I ran in the Red Shoe 5k to benefit Ronald McDonald house of North Dakota. I finished in 6th place 2nd in my age group with a time of 21:19 almost 2 minutes slower than my PR earlier this summer. I was a bit disappointed in the result. The weather was cool and windy but not that bad. I will have to resume my yasso 800's to improve my speed.
