Wow what a nice morning, not too cold at all. Ran with Cheri, my friend Nat joined us for the first 4. Went 11.5 with Cheri and then added on a little extra running around my neighborhood (laps). On Mon and Wed my pals my running partners have to be back by 6:30 but I dont have to get in the shower til 7, usually I just go lay back in bed for a half hour but I decided I am going to use that extra half hour to get in a few extra miles. Did ab workout too.

Avg Pace 7:46, time 1:42

I am jealous of the warmth! Good job making good use of your time and squeezing in some more miles. Do you feel any complaints from your body when you get into the higher mileage?

What a cute picture! Wow, I am impressed that you decided to run instead of catching a few more snoozes. So you just ran an amazing half marathon...wow!

Great job today! Hope you had a great weekend.

I am thinking that the Liver cleanse might help some of my issues? Could you email it to me?

Thanks!

Cute picture! Good job doing extra...that is a LOT of miles to me! And like Lybi said, a good half time!

You are amazing marcie! You are on your way to your sub 3 marathon! Way to lead the way for the rest of us gals.

Wow - what a way to start the week. I'm so jealous of your warm weather and can't wait til next week when I can be down there enjoying it too!!

Thanks for all the comments.

Andee and Michelle,

just wait til summer and I will be jealous of you guys getting to run the cooler weather and Michelle I really dont feel anything out of the ordinary. Its been good for me to gradually increase my mileage, even training for the marathon my miles usually arent this high so will see,(I usually have people telling me I am running too much so its so nice to be encouraged to add more miles-I think it really helps to get a good base, dont you?)

Jody-

I will have to mail it to you or send it up with Matt and Andee because its a few pages long and I dont have a scanner and I dont want to type it all up.Is that ok?

Marcie,

Not a big deal. Do you have access to a fax? If not no worries.

Thanks again!

From MichelleL on Mon, Dec 17, 2007 at 20:42:50

It is definitely good to get in a good base! No excuses! 10 miles (at least) a day! It's fun to have us in the same place and same goals. Good luck tomorrow!

Jody

Yes I can fax it to you from my work. Text me your fax# and I will get it to you this week sometime.

I saw that you got into moab, so did I. Where are you staying, I didn't think I would get in so I haven't planned anything.

I have no idea, my friends from salt lake are taking care of all that, I think, I hope.
