I’m incredibly lucky to have fabulous running friends and training partners. Although I tend to run alone with N dog the majority of the time, it’s so great to have people to debrief with and analyze progress with. Honestly-if you don’t have someone-get one, it helps.

I have one training partner and friend in particular who is a legend in his own right. Countless marathons and ultras under his belt including a 100 miler, he knows his shit-big time and I’m lucky enough to have him behind me every step of the way. I’ve been trying to co ordinate life and long runs for the next few weeks and between us we’ve come up with a plan!

I love plans, I’m a freak for plans. I love analyzing, creating, modifying and ticking off each workout as it’s completed. Anyone who wants to talk plans-I’m your girl ;)

Had a good run. Didn’t look at my watch. Just kept the pace nice and easy. Kelly dropped me off in Altamonte and 2hrs later, she picked me up along the roadside in Lake Mary. I used #heed #gels and #Recoverite at the end. Think this was my last run in my #duos They have way too many miles on them (close to 1,000) but luckily I have another pair ready to go. #run #runfar #altra #zerolimits #runallthemiles #runflorida #howihammer #hammerfamily #caterpylaces #teamcaterpy #bestnutrition #bestrunningshoes ##notielaces #i4eyesore #instarunners #runnersofinstagram #getoitside (at I4 Eye Sore)

Disrespected the training schedule again. Increased the mileage of the longest Long Run. 22 miles to finish peak weak. Definitely feeling much more confident about the full marathon distance now. I did crash a bit in the final 3 miles but pulled through really well. So apparently, from now on it’ll be tapering. Feels like way to early.   ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You can always go one step beyond your limit. Once you’ve taken that step, you’ll find that your limit now lies further. And then, you can step over it again.

I’m learning to deal with the distance difficulties. After 22k, cramping and fatigue started to dominate. I did some experimenting with food and water intake so it was to be expected. It slowed me down quite a lot but I handled it much better than last time when I was absolutely gutted about it (haha no pun intended).

The marathon is in a little bit more than a month. I sort of wish I’d have more time and be able to have the full distance under control. I know that a marathon doesn’t work that way, but to run a race where I haven’t ran the actual distance before makes me extra special nervous. Or is this anxious stomach feeling just the beginning of those mythical race butterflies I keep hearing about?

If you're one of those people that doesn't have time to train. You're just making excuses not to train. I was up at 3:30 am to get this run in. That doesn't make me better than you. Just more dedicated. #run #runnersofinstagram #igrunners #runfar #runforlife #runnerlife #runnercommunity #distancerunner #disciplineequalsfreedom #consistency #runlasvegas #runjunkee #trainharder #trainharderthanme #runningjourney #youcandoittoo #yourenotalone #fitfam #fitnessmotivation #inspireothers #zen #nike #nikerunning #nikerunclub #lonewolfrc #bebetter (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1d3CokHKXg/?igshid=16qw4bbfsem9h
