Had a very good run today, I was very comfortable and ran at an 8:47 min. pace for the first 10 miles and a 8:41 min pace to mile 11.5 and 8:30 min pace to 13.1 miles. I am training to run a marathon on the 6th of June in San Diego and am within 16 weeks of the run.  The problem that i am having right now is that i am out of town every other weekend and some weekends back to back and am not sure how to make the most of the days i have to train on the weekdays and to get my long run in also  ---- Need some advice please-----

A very easy 6, a little difficult but worked through it

51:21 not to bad was a very comfortable run.  Instead of just plain water to drink, i had power aid to drink and it was nice

1:10:34  was a little dificult today, but was able to work through it.

5 miles at 4:30 am, snow'n and blowen and my first run outside and loved it.

6 miles on the TM and then crosstrained for an hour.  50:55--- 8:30 pace

5 mile easy this morning, at 4:00 am. No snow and just a great morning too run.                

7 mile run after work this evening,  I like this am-and-pm running, it is a great way to get in the miles due to being out of town an the weekends   Thanks for all the help

Thanks

  Ran 7 miles after work and had a very fun run,  it is so good to be running outside again.  A little slow to start out but got better by mile two,  1:00:43 min.  8:41 pace

1:53:21    4:00am run on the TM,  learning  on a few sports drinks that i like and some that i do not like to drink and this run i found one that i did not like at all. 

AM 6 mile (52:21) run at the gym, to cold to be running outside. Had the chance to run and talk to Jeff S. this morning and gave me some great ideas on how to improve my runs.

PM 6 mile (50:09) run after work, applied the advice Jeff gave me and it helped alot, a little getting use to, but see improvement already, and felt better.

Tanks Jeff for the help

8 miles (1:10:48) ran out side this evening and was a little cold with a wind out of the north, and it did not help when at mile 5 a dog ran out of this farm house and bit me in the calf, lucky i had my cold weather pants and one other layer and it did not brake the skin, but it did tear my cold weather gear. Talking about taking you out of your run but worked through it and finished the 8.                                                                                                                                                                                                                

7.23 miles 1 hr. at 8:18 pace on the TM this AM, had a fun run

6.1 miles 50:08 at 8:13 pace on the TM after work

Easy run this morning, 4 miles at a 10:00 min pace  was a little sore this morning

6.1 miles at a 8:17 pace (50:34) on the TM at the gym

Didn't make the morning run, got to bed to late.

8 mile run tonight on the TM,  (1:05:05)

Day off, long run Sunday am

Well i ran 16 miles this morning, WOW  I am very proud of my self, it is my longest run to date, things are getting much better.  I am here to say that you olny get out of it what you put into it,                  

Ran the Greenbelt this morning

The run started out a little hard as it took a couple miles to get my breathing lined out, not sure if it was the cold air starting out or not. but got better after that. The first two miles was at a 9:00 min. mile and then 3-10 mile was around 8:30 min mile give or take, 11-15 was around a 9:00 min mile, and the 16 mile was my hardest because i was feeling my back getting tired.

Ended up running 2:26:09  at a 9:09 pace. It was a great experience and know a little more what i need to work on. One is to get my back stronger so that it does not tire, Any Ideas my friends

Again thanks for all the help, and more is needed

My wife Mauri also ran 16 miles this morning and i am very proud of her also
