Speed Day Monday: I love doing my speed day on Monday because my legs are screaming for a run after a rest day:) It was hard peeling myself out of bed though…wouldn’t that be awesome if there was a magic pill that made getting up in the morning feel good and super easy? My dad is an inventor…I will tell him to get working on making that asap.
Today I did 13.1 miles, 1% incline in 1:29:21…..that is 3 minutes faster than last week and I feel pretty good about it. I guess speed training and hill workouts are helping!
I did mile repeats throughout the first hour of the run (anywhere between 6:10-6:45) with 800’s at a slower pace (anywhere between 7:00-7:24). For the last part I ran at a 7:01 pace….I do need to work on some negative splits though.
Call me a weirdo but I love the end of a workout where I feel like I am going to puke. I know that I pushed myself past what I thought possible. What should my goal be for my 1/2 marathon in 19 days?
————————————————————————————

Hi, my name is Sheanna, and I'm a loyal stalker…Errr…Follower.
My favorite workout is the core workout in the P90X line of workouts with the cardio in the morning. THe core makes my guts feel like they're secure if that makes sense.
If I HAD a blog, I would link back to yours, but I don't because I sucked at blogging (great writer, bad at keeping up with it and taking pics).
Been waiting for this giveaway all day!!!!
Pam
Posting your giveaway on my blog's sidebar.

my favorite workout is running right now, but I am a former swimmer…and my favorite candy are green apple twizzlers and candy corn! PS I shouted out to you on my blog, but for a different reason…
Elysie
I just became a follower! I love your blog!
My favorite distance is 5 miles. I'm training for a half marathon so I'm slowly building up the mileage I can run.
runyogarepeat
I linked it to my post.
Amanda
My favorite is 3.21 miles. I'm weird, right? I have a thing for numbers I guess. I'm trying to enjoy running longer distances more, but so far it isn't working.
I would also tell you my favorite candy, but I just can't pick!!
XLMIC
I follow you like a shadow on a sunny day ;-)
My favorite workout ever was a rowing workout… 3×20 minutes@ anaerobic threshold w/ 5 min super easy in between. Favorite running workout… 4×1/2-mile hill repeats in the hilly park near my house (that or the 1 hour stadium extravaganza). I can't do any of that now! :P
And your readership is off the charts! Wow!
BigHappyFamily
I'm a follower, and I am destined to be your twinner with sunglasses and bag of sweedish fish.
gloryrunning
Favorite candy: for super bowl sunday one of my friends brought these chocolate covered acai berries from costco. If it were physically possible to marry a candy, this would be the one. Or swedish fish – they are also very handsome, so I haven't entirely decided =)
Favorite distance to race: 5k. I love that it's short enough basically sprint the whole thing.
Favorite workout: mile repeats! And sprint work – they hurt so good!
Allyssa
Following you! And we would be friends in real life. Seriously. I just know it.

totally linked. :)

I have no clue how to follow..but I'll figure it out. I just recently found your blog and OMG, I think we are totally twinners. LOL I love your daily rambles and it gets me started off right!! lol I totally read your blog twice a day (sometimes more..shhh..I tell my husband I'm working on my Chemistry homework). My favorite workout, so far, are Wednesday's on the treadmill. For some reason, that day totally kicks running butt!!!

OK, I have come out of lurker-dom to say:
Hi!
Happy birthday week!
I am your newest follower.
I love 13.1. I'm training for 26.2 right now, but uuuhhhh…20mi long runs? What's with that?? I want my 13milers back. Oh wait, I do those on Wednesdays now!
Michelle
Im not a distance runner…so my favorite candy is Reeses…well really anything with peanut butter.. BTW I'm a follower too.
BigHappyFamily
My favorite workout totally varies. I feel like I know what I need to get to the happy place, and I do it. Right now I am doing the long runs on Saturday with a training group (to prepare for the second race of my life) … never done that, really liking it. I love the solitude of running alone after a busy day of interacting. I love to swim, but only when the lap lane is empty, and the running fitness really translates well to the water for me. I like some cardio kickbox when I am feeling fiesty. And I love me some clubbin cardio dance class when I am feeling lazy, and I know at a minimum I will get a good core workout laughing at myself in the mirror.
Allyssa
I'm hoping my favorite distance will be a half marathon but my first one is still a couple weeks away. There's always going to be a part of me that loves aerobics though. I used to teach aerobics in college and now that I'm poor from my school loans I miss belonging to a gym where I can do it.
JenniferB
1. I follow you!
2. My most favorite distance to run is the 1/2. I've only done one so far. I have 2 more coming up in the next few months. To me it's the perfect length. I wish I had your pace!
Lauren
Favorite candy: FLUFFY STUFF ( packaged rot your teeth cotton candy! :)

Hehehe…you know I follow (stalk) you. :) I don't really have a favorite distance yet, since I'm still working on the not puking while trying to walk a mile part, but by the end of summer I'm hoping my fav will be that 13.1 I'm gonna do! Favorite candy is probably the Giant Chewy Sweet Tarts. Yum!

So far my favorite distance to run is a 10K. But I'm slowly working up my mileage!
Natalie Cates
I follow you on google reader! My favorite workout is zumba-i teach it and am completely obsessed! I also love strength training (i know you hate it, sorry! and interval training. I'm trying to start running, but haven't gotten past a 5k yet.
I love your blog! I talk about you like I know you in person haha. There is a guy at my gym training for boston and I was telling him about you and how speedy you are!

My favorite distance to race…half marathon! Just long enough to be a challenge but short enough that the training doesn't take over my life!
chelsey @ clean eating chelsey
I of course follow you, and um, I love that you are giving away a signed picture. Because someday you'll be famous for running a sub 3:00 marathon, so it will be worth millions.
My favorite distance to run is 10 miles for distance. But for a down and dirty workout, I'm a 3 miler girl
alison in bioland
You had me at Swedish Fish, which are pretty much my greatest vice in life, next to the man in bioland!
My favourite workout is the run you don't feel like doing but ends up feeling amazing. Sometimes it's 3 miles and sometimes it's 12!
I'm a follower for sure.
Tiffany Godinez
I LOOOOOVE following your blog! You are awesome! My fave race distance is the 1/2 marathon, but I love running a 6.2 practice 10K in training. I love running many 1/2s throughout the year so that I am constantly training for something. So far this year i am registered for 5. San Diego Safari Park, Pediactric Cancer support run in Irvine, Disneyland (my fave), Long Beach and Big Sur!
BTW…my fave 2 candies are…airheads sour belts (the multi colored striped ones they have at the movies) and fun dip!
Samantha
follower!
Samantha
definitely have to agree. I love half marathons!!
Caitlin
I obviously follow you!
My favorite distance to run is def 13.1. There's something about giving it your all for the whole race is more thrilling to me than doing 20 miles. I also like it because its completely more bad ass than 10miles. Annnnd my favorite kind of candy are sour patch kid watermelons and chocolate covered raisins!
Caitlin
annnnd I have just blogged about your giveaway!
Jamie
Ok, I'm now a follower (and a first time commenter). My favorite run…well, I love my first half-marathon and I want to run another so I guess that's saying something. And for kicks and giggles, my favorite candy is sour patch watermelons. But I also adore organic sunny bears (but they're too expensive at $10.00/lb to grow too attached).
Rachel Marie
Merely mention your giveaway in a post? No, no. Not enough. Whole post at Year of the Redhead just for you. :)

I have just become a LOVER of running in the last 2 years or so. Started as a way to get back in shape after baby #3. Eeeek! Anyway, I'm hooked and ran 7 miles Saturday and 8.25 on Sunday. I like any amount of running at this point! And just for kicks my favorite candy is toffee.
Dana
I just started following you on twitter… the only other person i follow is Winston and he is a cat..
My favorite workout is any workout where i do more than i thought i could!! This weekend i actually doubled my distance for my run!
Happy Birthday Week!
my little celebration
I was already following you on reader, but NOW I'm officially following you for all the world to see and it feels so good. Weeeeeeeeeeeeee!
My favorite distance to run is a 10K. It's short enough to almost sprint, but long enough to feel like a good workout.
Lovely giveaway! So fun : )
Blue
I am trying to love working out, as you know. I actually went to my first spin class last week…inspired by you (and a co-worker who emailed and said she was going and did i want to meet her? So yes! I would like to meet her there and have a workout buddy. Since Janae isn't nearby and inviting me to workout with her. As if i could even keep up.)
But my favorite candies…so many choices. So hard to choose. I love chocolates with other stuff added (caramel, mint, fruity flavors, etc.) but my favorite treats are either baked goods or frozen…Golden Spoon (I already discussed this yesterday) and Gelato, ice cream etc. I love pies of almost any kind. I love making my famous toffee…which I will make for you when we meet.
I'm going to be flying from Boston to LAX to Boston to Boston to LAX to Boston to Boston to LAX to Boston to Boston to LAX to Boston to Salt Lake City this week, so I won't be able to get online much. But have the most wonderful 25th birthday! So sad that we aren't going to be 24/42 any more. :-( But you can still be my bff. ♥

My favorite workout is a good run – my goal for 2011 is a half marathon. I ran my first 10k back in September and I'm running a 10 miler in April.
Love your blog – you are too cute!! :)
Bethany
I live in London, England, which is far too far for you to have to send things. But I thought that I'd reply anyway. Because posting comments is fun!
Favourite distance to run is 5K at the moment. but I'm definitely hoping to run a half-marathon this year!
And my favourite sweets are starburst! Or skittles! Or jelly tots! Yummm.
We don't have swedish fish over here. We're basically deprived. I might have to try and import some!

Maia
My favorite distance is the marathon, hands down.
Lindsey
My favorite distance to run is the half marathon. I've done one full and it was amazing but they take too long to train for. Half marathons are the perfect distance cause not everyone can just sign up and do them on the spur of the moment.

Awesome giveaway!
While I'm not fast… "race" wise, I really like the half because I get to run it slower than a 5k :) And training-run wise, I really enjoy my long runs the most because I always run them outside and they take me through some beautiful scenery!

I've been reading your blog for quite some time now. I'm not a follower as well.
So far my favorite distance, wait, time to run is 2 minutes. I'm just a beginner. But when I was able to bust out two minutes, I'll tell ya'-the world spun.

My favorite workout ever was a group bike ride I did in 2009. It was winter, it was cold, it was wet, it was miserable. By mile 25, we had lost ALL of the men to someplace warmer than the road. We had also lost some women, but at mile 45, I was SO proud to finish our ride completely with 6 other women! We were strong that day!I didn't think I could do it…
But I Did!
Then I cried in my car for 15 minutes before my feet warmed up enough to be able to drive home.
Ahhhh…now that's a good workout!

I am now a follower and I hope I did that right! Not that I'm following only to win but……. my most favorite distance to run is five miles. (It feels like an accomplishment to me- I wish the mental ability to run longer..I have the attention span of a five year old.) I'll link it on my blog http://cupcakedynamite.wordpress.com tomorrow if that's not to late. :D xo
Ashby Family
Favorite race distance is the 100 meter freestyle. (in swimming) Fast and SHORT. If you do it right, you can barely climb out of the pool because you are so wiped.
I think that's why running any longer than to the end of my street is so hard. I'm a sprinter at heart. Oh well, I WILL conquer the marathon!
amanda

my favorite distance to run is probably 7, though i usually run 6 to 6.5. i guess whenever i do 7, i feel even more accomplished! however, i want to be able to run 9-10 miles more regularly. i ran that much at least once a week for about 3 weeks this summer at the peak of my summer training for cross country season and i loved it. mostly because i got to run to the ocean and back through the woods :) of course, i got nothin' on you!
as for speed work, i like 400s and 800s.

I think my favoritest distance to run in all the world is a good 8 miler. I am working to increase that number, but baby steps!
I also could put my face in a bag of Reeses PB Cups!!
Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
Rochelle
I'm new to running, but so far my favorite distance is 5 miles..mostly cause thats the longest I've gone and the sense of accomplishment is awesome!

My favorite workout is Plyometrics moves (burpees, mountain climbers, squat jumps, etc..). It's a great compliment to running and really works so many muscles. I find it such a rewarding mental challenge to get through!

I think my favorite workout would have to be a speed session, it hurts while you do it but feels soo good knowing that you did it after! A close 2nd would have to be a really hard lifting session! I am having to sacrifice muscle for running but since I am not going to be a figure girl I have to have some sort of goal!
Diana Tries-A-Tri!
I love doing speed workouts too. My favorite are hill repeats. They always seems so easy and then by the end you feel like death … in a delightful way! Oh, and I love chocolate covered blueberries. Oh heavens they are delicious

I honestly don't yet know what my favorite distance is… Except for training runs I've only ever run 5k's and one half marathon, but I think I prefer the half.
Aaand, I think I should win this giveaway because I've never tried Swedish Fish before ;)
sugarandsneakers.com
I love doing 5Ks. They are attainable to everyone so you have such a variety from beginners to full on sprinters. They are fun and pressure free.
peisera
My favorite distance is a 5k for races, but 7-8 just for training/fun. After a massive snow and ice storm I got out for the first time today and it was glorious!
Catherine from NJ
Janae- That is the best giveaway ever! You are the cutest. Imagine, it's your birthday week and you are giving US presents! Wow!

You inspire me!

I love girlie giveaways~ YAY~
My favorite distance to run is 20 — I haven't run it in a really long time but it makes you feel super accomplished but not DEAD. Anything over 20 really impairs me for a while but 20 makes me feel like a rock star ;)

Karissa Kay
I just got into running a few months back and ran my first 10k (i know, it doesn't sound too impressive, but i was proud of myself). Now I'm expecting my 2nd baby so I'm not allowed to push myself at the gym too much but my goal for post-baby is a half marathon! Woo-hoo!

Great job on your run!!! I think you should soot for sub 1:20 for the half!!
I love speed workouts… I think my favorite is 400 repeats. I also try to end every workout as fast as I can!! Happy Birthday week! And I follow you on twitter and I will become a follower now : )

I love ten miles (to run not to race). It's long enough that you feel really accomplished but it can be done (somewhat) I'm a whim.
PBandJ Runner
My favorite race distance is the half marathon. It is the perfect distance for me-I have tried everything from 5ks to marathons, but have found that the half is the perfect blend of speed and endurance. I feel like I can dial into a competitive pace without having to go so fast that I miss all the amazing race scenery around me, but I don't have to run so long that I am counting the mile markers. I also love it because I can do training runs that are longer than the actual race distance, so on race day I can toe the line knowing that I have run 13 miles or more more times that I can count on my unpolished fingers and runner-deformed toes!

My favorite distance to run is 4.5 miles. It's short enough to still have fun & go fast (for me).
