I was cruising along nicely trying to decide if I should pick up my pace, because I felt so good. Monday - 3 miles, easy pace. Wednesday - 5 miles, with 3 miles at tempo pace. Thursday - 3 miles, easy pace. Saturday - 7 miles, run at conversational pace. Monday - 3 miles, easy pace. I love this class!

I have missed very few workouts, I''ve been building up my mileage, and I was pleased with my pace, when all of the sudden I developed some pain in my left foot during the 10 miler. What I was supposed to run during week 8: Monday - 3 miles, easy pace. Wednesday - 6 miles, tempo pace for 4 miles. Thursday - 3 miles, easy pace.

Ever since school started, life at our home has been at a frenetic pace. Homework, soccer, field trips, work projects, meetings, birthday parties, blah, blah, blah. I start my day at 5:45am with a run, speed through the day with work, chauffering kids, and housework, and then collapse into bed at 10pm exhausted from my day.

At mile 8, my friend needed to stop talking and concentrate on running, so I put on my earbuds and picked up my pace a bit. I knew running with someone would slow my pace down a bit and I felt really good the entire race. I finished the race in 2:19, over 20 minutes longer than my fastest time. But that’s okay.

Mornings get hectic at my house and breakfast tends to be devoured at a frantic pace. I don’t want any of us to leave for school or work without a hearty breakfast, so I need quick ideas. I love these Egg & Ham Breakfast Muffins for that reason. I make a batch and then store them in a freezer bag.

The trip was fast paced, but so much fun. Before we headed back to the bus station to go home, we made a pit stop at Dylan’s Candy Bar where I spent WAY to much money on candy…that is one dangerous store! According to one parent’s phone app, we walked 8 miles on Saturday and 7 miles on Sunday.

It is so easy for the month to get lost in the commercialism and the frenzied pace and while it is fun to receive a gift, my husband and I want the month to be focused on our faith and our family. I look forward to Christmas and the month of December all year and once it’s here, it always seems to fly by.

I was racing to beat my personal goal of a 10 minute mile pace. I spent the time focusing on my breathing, listening to the awesome tunes my husband loaded onto my iPod, running next to total strangers, and just taking it all in. When you are in the back of the pack, you realize pretty quickly that you're not going to win the race.

So I'm taking you along on my training this year for a change of pace. That plan worked well for me when my goal was to simply finish the race, but now I've proven that I can run 13.1 miles I want to improve my time and that will take a slightly different type of training. I will need to work on my core, my speed and those bloody hills.
