As I mentioned is last week’s training summary, I started off week 15 of CIM training out of commission due to a burst ovarian cyst. I was a little overly dramatic about it ruining the important week of training that I had on the schedule …
Hey there friendly faces! This training summary is coming to you a bit late this week. To say that the first half of this week didn’t go as expected would be an understatement. On Sunday morning we had a wonderful time at Lavinia’s Baby Dedication …
Last week was RACE WEEK! It was great to mix up training a little bit and have a down week in terms of mileage. I’m really pleased with how my race went (I’ll get a recap up later this week!) and have recovered relatively quickly. …
Last week was my highest volume week in a loooong time. I hit 74.5 miles and had two big workouts – 3x 3 mile repeats on Wednesday + a long run workout yesterday with 10 miles @ goal marathon pace. I’m pleased with how both …

Wow! I’ve been slacking on updating you all on my training – things have picked up with cross country season and I’m finding myself having less and less time on my hands. Another reason I’ve been busy is because one of my good friends and …
Last week’s training went pretty well, I would have preferred to get outside for both of my workouts but I ended up on the treadmill for both (yes, including the 16 mile long run) because of weather conditions and life stuff. It was 100+ degrees …
