Midweek long run

January 31, 2013 Idalie Beyer Leave a comment Happy Miles, Marathon Training

After running a PR on Saturday’s half marathon, I was sore for a few days.  I have 20 miles on Saturday and wanted to take it easy this week.  Monday was a rest day (which I would have bumped up Thursday’s 5 miler because of my work schedule).  Tuesday I had 5 scheduled and did […]

Lake Benbrook Half – Impromptu race

January 28, 2013January 28, 2013 Idalie Beyer Leave a comment Happy Miles, Marathon Training

The best thing about marathon training is the confidence builder.  Last year when the Cow Town half marathon was coming up I remember thinking, “I need to start training for this race.”  I began running more and more around November and then come February I headed out to the race and finished at my regular […]

18 mile recap

January 25, 2013January 25, 2013 Idalie Beyer Leave a comment Marathon Training

Last Saturday, 1-19-2013, we had an 18 mile run scheduled.  Throughout the week I was pumped.  I ran my 5 mile, 9 mile, and 5 mile run then rested up for my long run.  Tiffany and I agreed to meet up at 7am.  Our friend Veronica met us too.  She’s training for the half and […]

Snow, ice, 15 degree windchill

January 16, 2013 Idalie Beyer Leave a comment Happy Miles, Marathon Training

This week it has been really cold so far.  Yesterday I ran 4 miles on the treadmill because of the bitter cold and today I woke up to thunder, snow, sleet, and ice.  5 miles on the treadmill.  I am so glad I have it as an option.  So many people complain about the treadmill, […]

9 miles with dogs

January 16, 2013January 25, 2013 Idalie Beyer Leave a comment Marathon Training

In order to guarantee negative splits I shall take my dogs. These two are complete opposites. Rusty makes it 2-2.5 miles tops. He quits part off the way and will just sit in the street. If he wiggles out if his collar he will just lie down and take a rest. Hawkeye runs and has […]

my running journey

January 15, 2013January 25, 2013 Idalie Beyer 1 Comment Happy Miles

I remember when I first started running as an adult.  I lived in Gresham, Oregon (outside of Portland).  I was 50lbs plus overweight and I knew running was the way to lose the weight.  My BF and I met at the local high school track.  I had a 6 month old at the time and […]

recovering

January 14, 2013 Idalie Beyer Leave a comment Marathon Training

Ugh…still trying to recover from yesterday’s run.  I made some minor changes before our 16 mile the week before and this week.   I need to get to bed early tonight (well by 10ish) and see if I can manage to change the run schedule this week a little. My schedule looks like Tues-4, Wed-9, […]

This weeks mileage was 29miles.  5 miler on Tuesday was awesome, the 8 miler on Wed since it was pouring down rain, was on the treadmill and it went well…78minutes and I worked on hills and speed intervals.  I skipped Thursday’s 4 miler and did it on my rest day, Friday. Yesterday, Friday for my […]

rain rain rain

January 9, 2013 Idalie Beyer Leave a comment Happy Miles

So, here in North Texas it was predicted that it would rain starting today.  The rain was predicted for the afternoon so I thought, “Great, I’ll run in the morning and beat the rain.”  That is exactly what I did, I headed out at 9am and it was drizzling.  I wore my rain jacket, my […]

Wow so tired all the time

January 8, 2013January 8, 2013 Idalie Beyer Leave a comment Marathon Training

This weekend I realized I need more hours of sleep especially since my mileage has increased.  Last week my miles added up, 4 Tuesday, 8 Wednesday, (I skipped Thursday..oops), and 16 on Saturday.  I took a short nap after my run on Saturday.  Then I went and ran some errands with the family.  Sunday morning, […]
