Getting closer!
Distance: 6.15 miles
Time: 45 minutes 15 seconds
Mpm: 7:21
Ran well again using my downtown route. This route is the hilliest, so I've been using it a little more to get ready for Omaha. My time was once again really good without pushing myself too hard. The weather is perfect for running and I'm definitely hitting my stride. Tomorrow will be my last speed workout before Omaha....Can I hit sub 7's tomorrow?

Mid-week run!
Distance: 10.26 miles
Time: 1 hour 15 minutes 52 seconds
Mpm: 7:24
I had a good run tonight using my downtown course. There was some traffic but it didn't seem to affect my time. I was actually surprised that I was able to finish so quickly without really pushing very hard. Tomorrow I have a short 40-45 minute run which I will run very easy. I feel like I may be peaking right now, so I may cut back some miles towards the end of the week.

Feeling good!
Distance: 7.63 miles
Time: 55 minutes 9 seconds
Mpm: 7:14
Did good in my Fartlek workout tonight. I made the time I set out for and felt good on the run tonight. I used my riverfront course tonight and there weren't many runners out on the trail. Tomorrow I'll run 65-75 minutes...not sure how much yet. It's kind of up to me at this point because we are tapering off a bit this week if I so choose. The weather was once again near perfect tonight....it's getting closer and closer to race time :)

Distance: 6.7 miles
Time: 47 minutes 57 seconds
Mpm: 7:09
The weather was near perfect! The temp was about 60 degrees....very fall like! I ran easy but still wound up with a good time using my Old Market route. It was so nice that I felt like I could've ran forever! I may well be peaking at the right time! Tomorrow I do a 55 minute "fartlek" workout...it is supposed to be nice again tomorrow. The Cowboys ended up winning last night 45-35!!!!!

Nice Sunday run!

The weather was great, and I took advantage of it with a good run today. I used my Old Market route and made good time. The upcoming week will be my last full week of training before the Omaha 1/2, so I hope to have a good week. Right now my Cowboys are winning, but it's close.

Another 13 plus!
Distance: 13.22
Time: 1 hour 38 minute 59 seconds
Mpm: 7:29
I ran well on the run today! I'm happy with the time and the fact that I didn't get tired at all on the run. As opposed to last week, I went up 10th st one more time then last. Basically, that means I ran a tougher course due to the hill going up 10th. I have one more big run next Saturday before the race and that is it! Training is almost over. Tomorrow I plan to run 45 minutes hard and then 20 minutes easy later in the day. Nu squeaked out a win over Wake Forest...20-17!
