I have literally gone insane

15 minute ice bath (using snow from outside).
14 times I laughed out loud while watching Friends.
13 visualizations of crossing the finishing Boston under three hours.
12 ice cream sundae’s I am going to eat today.
11 times I listened to ‘Coming Home’ by Diddy on repeat.
10 different people that came on the treadmill next to me, finished their workout and left.
9 is the time I got home.
8 episodes of Friends watched by mua.
7 times I wanted to quit.
6 people at the gym telling me I was a madwoman and a little off my rocker.
5 is the time I woke up on a holiday with no work.
4 water bottles.
3 hours and 26 minutes.
2 beta-alanines I took before running (a supplement to prevent hydrogen build-up aka muscle fatigue.)
1 potty break

IMG_3730.jpg
Came home and foam-rolled, stretched, took an ice bath and then crawled back in bed to watch Veronica Mars. Who’s knows how I jumped……my calves are a little sore.

I have secretly always wanted to run a marathon on a treadmill.

Today was the perfect day to do it because:
-I am meeting with my coach today and I want him to be proud:)
-There is so much ice and snow outside and I went so early that there was no way I was going to run outside.
-I had an awesome rest day and carbo overload yesterday.
-Life is amazing and running is so much fun.
26.2 miles in 3:26 at 1% incline and last two miles at 7:24 pace.
P.S. If you are having trouble commenting choose open ID from the profiles list and it should work.

What is the craziest thing you have EVER done?

-I think this might have to win but also SKYDIVING……I was scared out of my mind.
What is making your Monday AWESOME???  (It is all about perspective right:)
-Running, talking about running all day and going to lunch with Billy and friends at CAFE RIO!!!! I am salivating just thinking about it.

OH MY GOSH I WORE THOSE EXACT SAME TEMPOS THIS MORNING ON MY RUN!!!!!!!!!! we are running sisters today, feel the chills up and down your spine :)

my workout wasn't nearly as impressive, but it was impressive for the fact that it's the first time i've run back-to-backs in like 2 months. i had a long string of interviews that seriously inhibited my running!

congrats on the marathon. the most i've ever done was 20. you rock so hard, as does dirty diddy money!!!

You seriously ran 26.2 miles on a treadmill? You are my hero! There is no way….I start to go insane after 5 miles! The furthest I have run on a treadmill is 9.

Oh my goodness! I knew you were going to have a killer long run today, but I think you outdid yourself! #10 is my favorite on your list – hahaha. I think you rock.

The sun is coming out right now! For the 1st time in days and days.

I love Veronica Mars, I am still sad they canceled that show. She kicked ass.

You ran a marathon on a treadmill. You crazy.

Oh and Ps. You commented on my blog and I tried to reply back by email you back but you don't have an email to reply to….

Congrats girl! You are a little crazy, but watching FRIENDS must have helped a LOT! I went skydiving too, and it was amazing! My monday was great because I started my running/nutrition internship. I actually thought of you cause I help organize some of the marathon events, and they gave out candy during the race.

Not much is making my monday awsome! It's 40 below otuside, 30 below inside my office, I'm sleepy… BUT I did have a banging cardio session this morning AND was able to report a 2.6lb weight loss to my coach today! WOO WOO!

Enjoy your day off you crazy mad woman! I dont know how you did what you did, but you rocked it!

Great job Janae!! That's awesome that you're meeting with your coach. I hope that it goes well! My Monday is good because I got up at a decent time (7:30) and began my day then. I went to the grocery store and I currently have a pot roast in the slow cooker and blueberry muffins in the oven. I've never baked in my life so we'll see how this turns out…

Can you please rub some of your love for running off on me? I'm training for my first half-marathon and have ZERO motivation.

Girl you ROCK! slash my Monday has not been QUITE as glorious, but it is sunny here and that is a ginormously big deal because upstate New York does not see the sun. My craziest story was being attacked by a monkey! Not kidding, scariest moment of my lyfeee

Oh dear, I can't even remember any crazy thing I have done! It's either I'm old or I'm not crazy enough. Must think of something crazy to do asap! Haha! Is that a an 18" foam roller? Thinking if I should get that or the 24". The 24" looks too big for a petite asian like moi. 0_0

Sometimes I think there might be cause for concern that I find your insanity completely inspirational. I guess crazy people need to stick together. You are a rock star.

My Monday is amazing because I RAN. Only 2 miles, but I'm still in marathon recovery mode. Things are still inflamed and not quite healed up yet. Also, I CLEANED. Which is amazing because things are not dirty anymore. And I got to spend the day with my KIDS at home. They always make me smile about a million times a day.

You are amazing 26.2 on a treadmill definitely qualifies as crazy. The most I can make it on a dreadmill is 3 miles. You're my hero.

WAHOO!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so stinkin' proud of you. I'm following an Olympian in the making! Just remember us little people when you're gracing the cover of Runners World.

I've always wanted to go skydiving!!! You have to tell us about that! (Unless you already have. I've only read this blog for like the past month or so.)

Holy Batman like Jonathan, soon to be 5, would say! unbelievable!

crazy thing;..well I left my home, job, family, COUNTRY, best town in the world with the BEST FOOD by the way and took a leap of faith and followed my heart moved to California to be with Bill. I was 30 when I did that.

other crazy thing I will never ever do again is to go on top of the Stratosphere in Vegas and do that crazy ride on the roof: BIG SHOT…never again.

I'm laughing because I was wearing those same shoes, a black UA racerback tank, and those shorts but the Tempo variety not the Pacers this morning! Too bad I wasn't running at the same gym and could be one of the gawkers watching the crazy madwoman!!

You need to post a little more about this beta alanine! I'm curious.

Hahaha you are crazy – love it! The craziest thing I've ever done is starting to train for a triathlon! I feel nuts but excited – I'll be more excited once my first tri is under my belt! The runner up is probably running a 10k when I REALLY wasn't ready for it yet. I literally finished like second to last and could barely walk for two days, but I DID finish.

It was -3 degrees outside today and I had my 18 mile run planned! I took it inside on the treadmill and actually loved running the all 18 on it!! At first I thought for sure I was going to get bored but I watched my big fat greek wedding and some of miracle and it was greaaaaaaat!!

Reply

You would love Hillary Biscay…she's famous for her treadmill marathons. Says it builds mental stamina and considering her fortitude during Ultraman last year, I would have to agree. (in case you don't know, she's a professional triathlete – and I may have told you all this before! HAHA).

LOVE ice baths and foam rollers! They work wonders for tired muscles and have helped keep me injury free so far.

And I agree, you probably are insane, at least a little! :-)

Reply

I LOVE treadmill running! I can read while running, so the time flies by. I love doing long runs on the treadmill!
CRaziest thing for me would have to be a 50 miler (Fall50.com), but loved every second.
Also very happy that I don't have to teach today.

26.2 miles on a treadmill….impressive to say the least and at the speed you are doing it is amazing!!! I love the crazy looks from people when I am on the treadmill at the gym. I too am interested in what beta alanines are and so do tell when you have a chance…I am wanting more more more! Not a 26.2 miler, but I did do a 12.4 and am now enjoying my husband's day off, lying around in my pj's and looking forward to The Bachelor tonight (not a Brad Womack fan, but I do like a bunch of the ladies.) My 1/2 Ironman was probably one of the craziest things I have done…just b/c that much time spent doing physical activity was nuts for me…but so much fun.

The weather is making my Monday awesome. It's 80F, sunny, perfect. I have my office window open so I can appreciate it, even if I am stuck behind a desk all day.

I ran 8 miles in the snow today! It felt like an adventure. I need me some Yaktrax though, it's kind of difficult…

You have so much mental strength to run a marathon on a treadmill. I did 4 miles on the TM yesterday and it wasn't until that point that I was 'used' to it. I'd like to try to keep going, but people at my school gym start to give you the evil eye.

p.s. I think you are SO funny and I laugh at every single post.

You are insane – in a good way of course. I didn't even make it 45 minutes on the tradmill this morning. I am proud of you!

OMG, I cannot believe you did that! You're crazy. I think that if I could watch tv shows on my phone while running I'd last much longer than I do. 7 miles is still the longest I could go before I died of boredom.

Ok, that IS insane. Is your mill still functioning or did steam start coming out from it???

Craziest thing I've ever done? Wow, I can't even think of something now I'm so overwhelmed w/ 26.2 on a TM. :) Mine was probably signing up for a marathon when just 8 months earlier I dragged myself over the finish line of a half and said I'd never even do a half again. :)

Um, it's not Monday anymore, but my day was awesome b/c I got to spend it w/ my hubby celebrating his b-day. My mom had our son so we felt young and carefree again! :) It was an AWESOME Monday. Then I got to spend the evening w/ my BFF.

Oh my gosh! There are no words. You are absolutely insane…and for it, you're my new hero. :) Seriously. I can't imagine doing a spontaneous marathon, let alone on a treadmill. Once I did 16 on the mill and was so proud of myself I was walking around talking about it for DAYS to anyone who would listen. I can't imagine doing another 10.2.

Anyway, this'll probably sound cheesy but after I saw The Dawn post about how you ran a marathon on a treadmill, I went through and read a bunch of your old posts. I'm totally hooked. :)

OMG! I have done a tmill marathon too!! Other people do this too – yess! Ahh you make me feel so much better about myself!

Just saw this post. Glad you had fun! The most I have done on the treadmill was 16. I could have kept going because I felt good but didn't want to hurt myself just in case. Turns out it was good that I stopped because I had a whole nice gang of blood blisters on my feet. I will do a marathon on a treadmill one day…..soon…..very soon.
