Thanks everyone! I'm glad I did it, I feel more on track with my training now. I was tired this morning but got up at 4:!5 to run 6 easy pace on another humid morning. I had a bee sting my foot yesterday after my run (I hung my running clothes on the clothesline barefoot, why?) and anyway it's still a little swollen and painful. I'm just tired, low sleep as much as anything.

I'm thinking about taking tomorrow off. My schedule calls for a 14 miler mid-week but I'm thinking with the 12 and 20 already this week I will cut that one short. I don't really want to push things too far and end up injured. It's just a fun balance between pushing myself and not pushing so hard I get injured.

I'm also back to logging everything I eat and trying to lose wt again. I haven't been careful ever since I got sick so now it's time to get serious again.

I think with the 20 and 12 already cutting the 14 down a bit is prudent choice. You have worked real hard in this weather re-energize yourself so you can pick it up when you need to.

Julie, good thinking on dialing it back if that's what you body is telling you. Injury prevention is an art and you seem to be practicing well. On the logging of what you eat, I don't know if you have an iPhone but my daughter turned me on to a really great app called "Lose It" that allows you to set up your weight loss goal (total desired loss/speed of loss) then sets your daily caloric intake based on data you provide. It has a huge library of foods you can choose from to enter and plugs in the calories, and another large library of exercises that offsets your food intake with calories burned during exercise. Unlike a computer where you have to remember to log on and enter stuff, since it is on the phone it is easy to simply pick it up and put in the info, so logging is a snap. It may be available for Android, etc., but for sure is available for the iPhone.

The picture of Jocelyn is adorable! I love her curls! Great job on getting in the 20, and pushing a running stroller, no less! I think it's reasonable to cut the 14 miler since you did the 12 and the 20, unless you're feeling really great and really want to do it. Good luck on the weight loss as well. I'm still just qualitatively "cutting down" but not actually counting calories, but I think I'm probably headed in that direction soon too. Have you ever done the points system from weight watchers? I've heard good things about it.

You are rocking it Julie - I agree that injury prevention is an art that I have yet to figure out. I have learned a lot from experienced runners like yourself to slow it down when needed - I feel guilty if I don't, but have pushed too hard and ended up hurt too.

Thanks Tom, I have a very low-tech phone (doesn't even take pics and we don't have data plan) and have used a fitday online acct off and on but I think I do best just with very low-tech paper/pen logs and just getting motivated and really deciding I'm going to cut back. I read in Nancy Clark's Food Guide for Marathoners that people who log what they eat eat 20% less so really that's what I need to do.

Thanks K! I love my little girl, she has so much personality, too. She is very sweet and affectionate. I haven't ever done wt watchers, but let me know what works for you. I just gotta get motivated and realize that small changes do help because if I end the day and don't think I've made a huge calorie dent I'm more likely to eat a bowl of cereal because I'm just a little hungry instead of just taking a 100-300 kcal deficit that would make a good change over time.

Thanks John, I don't know how experienced I am, sometimes feel like I'm pretty new at all of this but yes I have found it's better to listen to your body than ignore it and end up with a real injury that forces you to rest too long.

Alex Kubacki wrote:I'm with everyone else here. Wise decision cutting back on the 14 after what you've been done so far. Great job.

Thanks Alex! Yeah no point in getting injured this early in the summer...

Today I was going to sleep in but my body woke me up at 4:15 anyway, really the bee sting area on my foot woke me up and once I was up I thought I may as well run. So I ran 6 miles pretty easy with one of my friends who is almost 72, has 4 more states to finish his 50 states the 3rd time around. Still humid but cooler, keep on having t-storms in the forecast but nothing really happens.

Tomorrow I'll run my medium-long run probably just 10 since it's pretty easy to fit it in without getting up extra early (normally get up at 4:45).

I've been thinking about marathon goal time and pace so I can have a good goal for Sunday's run which is to have some miles (I can't remember, 10-12?) out of 15 at MP. I think I might go for 4:05. 4:00 just seems so aggressive to me to jump from 4:13 in May and my low goal will be 4:10-4:11 (4:11:12 would be a PR)...it'd just be a 9:22 pace vs 9:09 which maybe it's more mental than anything but 9:09 seems pretty speedy to sustain over 26.2 especially adding in water breaks and all that.

It looks to be another hot weekend, 100 on Saturday, 97 on Sunday in the forecast so we'll see if I do better not wimping out on my long run. Either way it's 15 miles.

Ouch that's serious heat for the weekend.

Regarding your MP that your shooting for, I was reading McMillan last week and he was saying a good MP predictor is what your able to do for a Fast Finish on a long run. He said if you do the last 30min and building up to 60min at your goal MP then that should give you a good idea if you can hit it. Now he said this shouldn't be done until the last eight weeks of a cycle. Just a thought.

Julie some great runs you have been putting in. I like the fact that you are shooting for that 4:05 goal, I think that is a good adjustment right now in your training. Just remember as training goes on there is no reason that you can ended up at the 4:00 goal. Also wanted to say hi and great photo of your daughter.

Thank you for that, I wanted to try that today but the humidity scared it out of me. I will try in a few weeks, though.

Thanks, I think I will stick with the 4:05 and then just see how I feel on race day, and what the weather is like. I keep meaning to put more pics of Jocelyn up but get distracted. We take so many of her.

Well, before my 20 I didn't eat but that's because I just planned to do 6 and then I ate a banana and a few pretzels after 10 miles. Normally, though, I eat a bowl of oatmeal if I'm going more than 16 or so and usually have a few pretzels with me during my runs. Yeah, I get up early....4:15 some days. But then I'm in bed by 10 almost every night. It's just what works for me and my schedule right now, you get out there and run in the evenings and I don't have the energy to do that. I couldn't do that even when I was single...some reason all motivation goes out the window by evening for me.

Thanks Chas! Yes I am glad I have running! I only did 10 of the 20 with the stroller (the last 10) but that was the furthest I've ever taken her. I think we did 9 miles last fall once but it was really pushing her limits. This time she was perfectly fine though so I might have to do more jogging stroller runs the next few months. I think Sept-Oct are the best months for it though because it's not too hot and it's not so cold that I worry about bundling her up most days.

Today was my 10 miler scaled back from the 14 that was scheduled. 90% humidity and 76 degrees. I hate to say it didn't feel as bad as I thought it would but there was a little breeze and that helped. I just did a 10:00 pace average. My knee started hurting about 3-4 miles in and I think I just need to change my shoes.

We are in a severe heat warning until Tuesday p.m. so really no relief, lows in the 80s, heat index of 110 or so in the afternoons. Maybe after that moves out we'll get some relief.

+1 Glad to see you are being careful, especially if you are running the both of you! I always wondered what that would be like to run with a stroller - looks hard. Your 10 is probably worth more due to that alone.

Thanks John, Nick, Tom and Kenny.

I did wear new shoes this morning, felt better mostly. My knee did hurt a little but I don't think it's anything a day of rest won't cure. Super humid with heat index above 80 even leaving at 4:45 this morning.

8 mile GA run, I just couldn't push it faster than 9:45-9:50 with the humidity. I drank plenty came home and drank even more.

Tomorrow is a rest day. I am volunteering at a family event, kind of like a kid's outdoor carnival of sorts which is a fundraiser for a non-profit breastfeeding support center we have in Lincoln. They helped me and my daughter so much I'm happy to be able to help them now since I've been on this planning committee since January. So I'm hoping we have a good turn out and everyone stays cool. We'll be done at 10:30 so we'll miss the worst of the heat.

Still planning on the 15 for Sunday but I don't know how close to MP I will get with this heat. My plan is to run and take whatever walk/water breaks I need.

After Wed. this system should move through and things cool off at least somewhat.

Don't worry about getting to MP at this point Julie - heat or no heat. You are still early in the training cycle and time on your feet is just as important at this point.

I'm with Natalie and I wish they had the nice running strollers they have now when my daughter was young.

Julie, in this nasty humidity you're dealing with are you taking any sodium with your water? If runs go over an hour you may need something when it's really gross out. Great job with the run in those conditions and have fun tomorrow.

Yeah, at least we have hopes of it lifting in a few more days! Good job on your long run this week. The event was fun, Jocelyn and I helped with bubbles/water play for 2 hrs then enjoyed some ice cream as a family.

Natalie Wolf wrote:That running stroller is the secret to fast running! I'm convinced of it. They should have had them when my kids were babies!

I'm surprised I don't use my running stroller more often now that J really likes it. It isn't that much harder than running without, more just the prep of getting her ready and then putting everything away at the end. I met a man today who runs with 2 of his kids and said it gets heavy sometimes but right now I just have a 24 lb child.

Thanks, I just read in Running Times to check MP about 4 weeks before the race. I guess in the end I'll figure out MP on marathon day.

I take pretzels and eat them and then just drink plain water. I've had problems with powerade before so right now I'm pretty picky with just drinking water and then eating pretzels and candy. Thank you! It was a fun day and the clouds stuck around till the event was almost over, then it got pretty hot.

Kenny B. wrote:I carry water with anything over an hour usually 6 or 7 miles when it is hot and humid. Drink up and be the Camel.

Definitely. I have had water on me for every run except one in the last few weeks (and wished I had had it then).

Today's a rest day, tomorrow I'm still aiming for 15 miles. One of my friends ran 14 this morning and said it was the hardest 14 miles of her life (and she's run maybe 7 marathons or so). I'll just take it as easy as I need to and drink up!
