Marathon training for dummies. The trials and tribulations of a first time runner. Monday, September 19, 2011. Lannie's Ladies Take 4. Another cause that is close to my heart is the NOCC, which is the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition. I became acquainted with this cause after a dear friend of mine, Lannie told us she had ovarian cancer. Luckily it was detected in the earlier stages, they were able to do a hysterectomy and remove all the cancer. She was one of the lucky ones! Go Lannie, Go! Symptoms exis...

Marathon training for dummies. The trials and tribulations of a first time runner. Sunday, October 24, 2010. 20 miles and I survived! Moving on to the 20 miler.ran the first 8 with the girls and did the other 12 solo. Might I mention that the lows today were 65 and it had about a 90% humidity level. Not the optimal conditions for a long run of any length, especially not the grand daddy of all runs, not the 20 miler. Ugh! Date: 10/23/2010 7:00 AM. Type: Run (Long run). Distance: 20.19 miles. I was so happ...

Marathon training for dummies. The trials and tribulations of a first time runner. Tuesday, March 1, 2011. Another half down Austin Livestrong Half Marathon. Let me start by saying that I was very excited about this race in particular for many reasons. First, I was going to be running the third event to achieve my "Marathons of Texas" medal. Secondly, I was going to stay with my really good friend, Stacy, that I just adore, that I haven't seen in about 5 years. The (REALLY) BIG ONE (mile 11.8). This is a...

Marathon training for dummies. The trials and tribulations of a first time runner. Tuesday, September 28, 2010. I have never heard the term before, but I think we coined a new one. Heavy run.tonight we were all running and it seemed like we had lead in our feet. Maybe it was something in the air. My heart rate stayed lower than it usually is for all my runs and I felt like I was really struggling to eek out 4 measly miles. Why is that? Date: 09/28/2010 7:08 PM. Type: Run (Interval run).

http://trainingdummies.blogspot.com/2011/10/double-digit-territory.html
Marathon training for dummies. The trials and tribulations of a first time runner. Tuesday, October 18, 2011. Well, it is finally here, the 10 miler day! It will only go up from here, mileage-wise, so time to buckle down and keep my eye on the prize. The big picture is a PR at White Rock. A PR at 13.1 would be super too! THAT, my friends, is why I keep coming back for more. 45 days to White Rock Marathon and many more miles to go. Next week we will be running 14. Bring it! Get your cool TNT gear!

Marathon training for dummies. The trials and tribulations of a first time runner. Saturday, October 1, 2011. What a difference a year makes. Today marks a very special day for me in running. It is the day that I have crossed 1,000 miles. I have run 1,000 miles with my my two feet, my creaky knees and my once-upon-a-time smoker lungs! I have the bug, I have a new lease on life, I LOVE TO RUN. All because I bought some running shoes and I TRIED! Over time, running got easier, it got to be joyous. I lo...

Nuggets of Knowledge and Nonsense: July 2010
http://nuggetsofknowledgeandnonsense.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 22, 2010. This week I joined The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team In Training, to train for and run the White Rock Marathon on December 5th. Here is a little excerpt from my fund raising website. I hope you visit my website to show your support. I will also be using this blog to keep you updated on my training progress and everything along the way. For pretty much all of my life I never considered myself as a runner. In fact, I hated running. Please visit my fund raising page HERE.
