My Favorite Quote-   "When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." -Harriet Beecher Stowe

I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

So here is my first attempt, this season, at a tempo run :) I tried really hard to make my first mile SLOW, but my legs are just a bit naughty! My 10:03 is in homage to Carolyn :) The goal for the tempo was 10mm. The course was as flat as it gets around here :) Two puppies ran with/followed me for almost my whole tempo, much to my annoyance and that of the drivers on the narrow highway I was running on. One of them finally got hit by a van :( I was done with my tempo at this point. I didn’t know what to do, so I just ran home. The other dog turned back just as we were coming to the police station, where I was planning on turning him in.

The last mile felt REALLY slow. As for the tempo, it was uncomfortably easy or comfortably hard :) I was glad to slow down for the last mile :) Next week, I’ll add a half mile to the tempo. I am in no hurry… ;D  I eventually want to have an 8 mile run on Wednesdays with a 6 mile tempo in the middle :)

5 mystery miles outside in the COLD 30 degree cloudy weather. I got a bit of sun in my face for the last .2 miles :) I left the garmin at home. The pace felt slow, but that was the plan :) I was quite fatigued for the last .75. I was ready to be done. I am going to take that as a good sign. I must have done a good job with my tempo. Hard enough to make the last mile of today’s run not perfect, but easy enough that running the first 4.25 felt good and normal :) Am I interpreting this correctly???
