Hi! I’m Heather. (with S in this picture)
I’ve been a runner for quite a while now actually, like more than 10 years. I’ve had a lot of on and off cycles though as I do have a chronic autoimmune illness that has held me back a bit. Everything is under control now though and has been for a couple years, although that could change at anytime. But I just roll with it now.
Longest race I’ve done is a 10K. I've done 3 now...PR is 1:04
Longest run I’ve done is 10 miles. I literally don't remember how long it took me.
Average weekly mileage, right now around 15.
Average running pace is around 12:00. I'm a bit of a turtle. After gaining speed in my early 40s as I've crept into my mid 40s I've slowed down. In the past I have witnessed firsthand that the more miles I run week in and week out I do gain speed. It'll be interesting to see what happens this cycle.
Goals:
To train properly for and finish the 2019 WDW marathon upright and healthy. I'll post finish time goal closer to the race date.
To keep this training log weekly.
Runcation January 2019 details:
Staying: BLT 1BR, gifted points by the ILs
Joining me: DH who is doing Dopey DD2 who is going to be 16 and not running because she's a dancer and running's not her thing and DD3 who will be 12 an doing her 2nd 10K over Marathon weekend.
Dates: The girls and I Weds-Weds. DH will fly in on Tuesday so he can get his and DD's bibs.
My official training plan doesn't start until around September. This summer I'm concentrating on keeping myself injury free and continuing to build a good base. I'm almost 100% sure that I'm going to go with one of the free AMR training plans right now. That however could change...
