http://greenlee1111.livejournal.com/9961.html
200901.01 @ 16:54. New Year's Eve 4-Miler. New Year's Eve 4-Miler. On 2009.01.01 at 16:54. I ran the inaugural Fairfax Four Miler last night (New Year's Eve) in the midst of a high wind advisory. Because I am now tapering for my marathon on January 18, I didn't want to push it too hard. I decided that I wouldn't race it at full effort, but rather use it as a fast tempo run, aiming for a pace of 7:50/mile. One lap of the 4-mile course. Note the 6% grade! I arrived at the race, got out of my car, and immed...

http://greenlee1111.livejournal.com/10741.html
200903.22 @ 18:25. On 2009.03.22 at 18:25. If you've been following my blog then you know that I have been really packing on the miles. Beginning last July, I started to run 50 miles a week, and just recently had my highest mileage week ever at 61. I was thrilled for her! And at the same time, it opened my mind to the possibilities for me. She was only going for a 1:52, and she ended up with something much faster. She totally surprised herself. I really wanted to have the same thing happen to...I was wea...

I don't know what it is about the 10K. I have never run one that I was satisfied with. Except for maybe my first 10K, and I was happy just to be in the top 25% of the women. She was running the 5K, and it was nice to do a small warm-up with her. Both of the women beat me by seconds, but the Chicago woman was 40, and th...
