4 Goals for the LA Marathon

4 Goals for the LA Marathon

My goals for the LA Marathon are simple (but not necessarily easy): Finish the race. This will be a huge accomplishment in and of itself. I'm running this 26.2 as a training run for Boston and on fewer training miles than any of my previous six marathons. Number 7, will definitely be one for the books. (and yes, I'm nervous and bit stressed!) Have fun, stay positive. Sometimes when running a … [Read more...] about 4 Goals for the LA Marathon

Spring Marathon Training: Treadmills & Rest Days

Spring Marathon Training: Treadmills & Rest Days

Race Pace Runner Gregg won't let me forget the first time we met in-person and I boldly stated that winter was the best season for training. I assume in that conversation, I also gushed about the quietness of Central Park and how once you figure out how to dress, it's the best season to run through. I jinxed us all. The thing about running, that non-runners don't see is there are adventures … [Read more...] about Spring Marathon Training: Treadmills & Rest Days

Race Pace Training Diaries: Meet Jackie

Race Pace Training Diaries: Meet Jackie

 Hello, fellow Race Pace Runners! My name is Jackie, and I’ve been friends with Jess since fall of 2007, thanks to our shared love of all things running, cycling, and New York City. I’m so happy to have her as my coach while I train for the Nike Women’s Half Marathon DC this spring. I’ve been a runner for as long as I can remember, but I took a break from serious racing a few years ago … [Read more...] about Race Pace Training Diaries: Meet Jackie

Spring Marathon Training: Choosing a Goal Race

I use to think  I enjoyed shorter marathon training cycles, but I've learned I really enjoy having ample time to prepare. It gives me peace of mind.  This way I have plenty of time to make up a missed run due to illness, snow, or lame excuses. Since finding out I am going to run the LA Marathon, I've felt like I'm behind. I thought LA would be my goal race, but the idea of having to play … [Read more...] about Spring Marathon Training: Choosing a Goal Race
