5:49 ~ felt really good so I cut it short. I did this workout alone at 4:45am on a hilly route.
Thursday: 5 miles (Maddy woke up in the middle of my run, ran out of time)

Saturday: 12 miles in 80 minutes w/ 5 miles in the middle at marathon pace, 6:18

My legs feel good. The heat at NOLA is not something I am worried about, I have been doing a lot of long runs and hard workouts on the treadmill in my house with the heat kicked up to 75 degrees. The humidity...that's another story.
On another note, I have enjoyed the Mommy & Maddy time. We have played hours of peek-a-boo and destroyed much of the contents of my kitchen cabinets. Its fine, not like they were organized before!

Oh, so precious! The cut back is going to do you good:)
Great to see a blog by another western Canadian living in the south. I moved from Saskatchewan to South Carolona and don't meet that many people from SK, AB or BC. The weather definitely helps with all year running. Look forward to reading more of your blog! Good luck wit the marathon!
Hi, Thanks for your comment on my blog. As you probably noticed, I found your blog recently and love it. I have read some of your posts and you've got me thinking again about how I can continue to train at a reasonable level and be a working mom to (soon) two. The 4.30 am work-outs seem like the only option and I am really impressed you do it on presumably interrupted sleep. I will have to search your blog for more posts about schedules!! I wish you fast legs and good heart in New Orleans. Am excited to read your report.
Hope you had a super race today, Meggan!
