4:53 miler!!! |
Second of all, a big shoutout to Thing 2 who ran a 5:49 1500 for an almost 2 minute PR!!! Sadly, I missed this meet due to work :(. I am looking forward to seeing him run this week though...he is SO much stronger than he was during cross country.
And finally, I'm giving myself a shoutout because I ROCKED my 16 miler today! Last long run before Toronto and I went out hard to see if my pie-in-the-sky goal was reachable. I think so. Check this out:
10:34 average! Whoa! |
My first goal for Toronto is to finish. I believe, no matter your time, finishing is still a big deal.
My second goal is to go under 11 min pace. That is a 4:47:45 finish.
My "The running gods have aligned to make this a perfect running day" goal is 4:40....which is a 10:41 pace.
I think I have a chance to do this. Toronto is flat, with a barely perceptible downhill. Given the right conditions, I know I can do this & let the Ragnar chips fall where they may 4 days later.

You ROCKED your 16 miler, you've got this :)
WOW, the whole family is working it! Awesome!! You'll make your goal - no doubt about it!
Speedy kids and speedy mom. Love it!
you got the pace dialed in...git it!!!
You can totally do that time!! That was a great long run! It reminds me so much of mine! I've run two marathons for time and both were within 1 minute of each other! Sometimes I still can't believe it! My body loves a 10 minute + pace :)
Wow congrats to Thing 1 on the mile, that is insanely fast! And he will keep getting faster!
Nice job on the 16 miler, hope the upcoming marathon goes well!
Great job Thing 1 & 2!!!
Wow, go Thing 1! And congratulations on your 16 miler.
Yes, those Target up & up wipes are amazing. Even the guys were commenting that they liked them - and how often do guys have opinions on stuff like that, right? I didn't end up changing the entire time. I did use the towel - to sit on when I was sweaty and as a blanket when I was chilly.
Have fun at your marathon and Ragnar!
