Wow... nice run. I hope I don't embarrass you in saying your times and paces blow my mind. Your easy miles would be all-out efforts for me... seriously incredible.

Very cool that you got to represent your country abroad (the Greatest Race on Earth Series sounds neat!). Wishing you all the best with your marathon goals. :)

From ebates on Wed, Apr 27, 2011 at 12:21:56 from 128.187.97.4

Thanks KristenL. We all have ups and downs. My first half marathon was 1:40, so it's just steady efforts. I hope your injuries get better!

From KristenL on Fri, Apr 29, 2011 at 09:54:48 from 24.76.204.21

Soooo true that re ups and downs. Maybe there is hope for me yet since my first HM was a 1:49 and that was on 5 months of running... oh, if I could turn back time, I would have started with the 5K - lol! :)

Thanks for the well wishes. In the meantime, I'm running vicariously through you and others on this board. Cheers!

Great splits!

From ebates on Tue, Jun 14, 2011 at 15:34:47 from 128.187.97.4

thanks.. unfortunately slowed down instead of sped up, but oh well. how's it going Pic?

From Steve Piccolo on Tue, Jun 14, 2011 at 15:45:49 from 155.101.146.112

Going well. I finally am getting my mileage up. I was finishing my dissertation, etc. and that took priority over running for awhile. Now I'm in a post-doc at the Huntsman Cancer Institute.

I'm planning to run St. George this year. What's your plan for your next big race?

From ebates on Tue, Jun 14, 2011 at 15:49:15 from 128.187.97.4

Congrats on your PhD! That's the longest marathon. St. George is fun. Good luck in training!

As for me, I'm probably going to do Chicago... Oct. 9.

Emily! You are running sharp and strong. What are you currently training for? When I'm healthy (and faster) I'd love to run with you again.

From ebates on Wed, Jul 06, 2011 at 12:29:31 from 128.187.97.4

Are you Melody? I'd love to run with you again too. Sorry to hear you're injured. That's so tough. Do you have a good Dr/physical therapist?

Emily, you blog about as well as I do! haha

I'm sure you had a wonderful 14 miler with great cnversation and beautiful scenery. :)

You will need to recruit Holly for speed workouts and I will just run behind you guys, like I always do. If you ever need company we are always out at 5!

Nice job, Emily! That's a great race.

P.S. I was going to ask you about your mile repeats. I want to start doing some. How much rest do you usually have between them?

From ebates on Tue, Jul 26, 2011 at 00:38:20 from 97.117.120.186

Thanks everyone! Nice to meet you too Kelli. @ Steve-- I just jog one lap between mile repeats. When I was first trying to get them faster, I jogged 2 and then brought it down again at Ed Eyestone's suggestion.

Thanks Allie. I decided to skip out on Chicago, my race over the weekend showed me I'm not fit enough yet--but am going to work for CIM again. Interested in joining long runs?

From allie on Tue, Sep 13, 2011 at 12:14:33 from 161.38.218.168

yes, that would be great. i'm planning on CIM again as well. i'm running TOU this weekend, so i won't be doing any long runs for two weeks or so, but then i should be right back into training.

From ebates on Tue, Sep 13, 2011 at 12:16:25 from 128.187.97.6

Your training is going so well! That 2:45 is well within your grasp. I keep hoping I'll run into you in Provo one of these mornings - but you'd be too hard to catch even if I did catch a glipse of you.

From ebates on Thu, Nov 03, 2011 at 22:25:56 from 69.169.146.80

I'd love to run with you. How about tomorrow a.m.? Probably around 6:30 a.m.-we could meet at the corner of the football stadium.

Great workout, especially considering you weren't feeling 100%, and it was your 3rd harder day of the week.

Your fitness is there and I think you have a very good shot to get under 2:46! :-)

From ebates on Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 12:50:53 from 128.187.97.6

Thanks Jake--I'm excited for you and Andrea too. I'm still not sure. It's harder than it should be and I did stop a couple of times :-(. I'm thinking 23 on Saturday with the last 3 closer to marathon pace hopefully. Does that sound good?

From Jake K on Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 12:53:34 from 155.100.226.53

Yeah, that will probably be your last real long run, right? That is what I would do... its essentially the same thing I did 3 weeks out.

From ebates on Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 12:55:33 from 128.187.97.6

Yes, last long run. OK--cool. That is the plan.

From Andrea on Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 15:41:46 from 72.37.244.100

Great workout Emily. It probably felt hard because you are at your hardest training point right now and have been putting in some solid efforts. And you were running faster than marathon pace! :)

From Jake K on Sun, Nov 13, 2011 at 09:44:18 from 67.177.21.60

Nice run Emily!

I just looked at your mileage over the last couple months, but more specifically over the last 6 weeks or so since you have ramped it up. I think 60-65, then 45-50, then about 25 in the 6 days leading up to the race is perfect. On a percentage basis, its pretty much the same thing that Andrea and I are doing. I maxed out w/ about 6 weeks @ 140 miles, then cut back to 110 last week, just under 80 this week, and I'll run about 40 in the 6 days leading up to Philly. Andrea was hitting 75-85 mile weeks during her highest volume periods, then dropped to 67 last week and 55 this week. Since you have peaked at 70+ miles, I would think that as long as you are feeling strong, another 65 mile week is fine.

What do you have planned for your last couple workouts?

From ebates on Mon, Nov 14, 2011 at 12:24:55 from 128.187.97.6

Cool--thanks Jake. I'm not totally sure what I should do for this week and next. Last year, I raced a half marathon instead of the long run this last weekend, so I'm not sure how to do this week differently. Maybe 4x 1 mile at 5:40-5:45 Tues, 10 mile marathon pace on Thurs. and then Saturday 15 miles with 7-10 of it marathon pace... how does that sound?

From Jake K on Mon, Nov 14, 2011 at 14:32:39 from 155.100.226.53

I think the keys at this point are:

1) Stay sharp

2) Get in some marathon-paced running

3) Do workouts you are good and build confidence

I think the mile reps are good for accomplishing the first objective. Make sure the Thur/Sat combo isn't too much. 17-20 miles @ MP is quite a bit. If it were me, I'd keep the 10 mile tempo, then then for the Saturday run, just run 4-5 faster miles at the end of it.

OK-- so still bursting into tears occasionally.  AND feel DUMB about that given that it is a PR, but-- I just thought I had this one for miles it felt like I did.  I felt on top of the world at mile 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, and then I slowed down....further and further and couldn't keep up wth the people who passed me. I can't remember much of what I was thinking except that I looked at my watch at mile 22 and it was a 6:12 mile and I was tired and I slowed down.  At the finish I was close to blacking out, dizzy, and became hypothermic quickly (body temp was 91, blood pressure was 92/50)

Here are my splits
6:20, 6: 20, 6:10, 6:26, 6:17, 6:14, 6:17, 6:12, 6:02, 1:22 at the half, 5:41 to make it 1:27 at 14 miles, 6:17, 6:18 (1:40:28), 6:14 (1:46:43), 6:15 (1:53:17), 6:11 (1:59), 6:19 (2:05:32), 6:16 (2:11:20), 6:12 (2:18:01)--this is where I let the pace group go, I remember thinking we were going to fast when I looked at my watch at 6:12--and probably that was where i lost it.  i wish i had asked the pacer to slow down just 5 sec/mile so i could stay with them, but i couldn't stay somehow. i lost them somewhere between 22 and 23. then ashley and megan passed, but they were neg. splitting, going super super fast.
6:34 (2:24:36), 6:43:03 (2:31:19), 7:01:05 (2:38:20), 7:13:58 (2:45:33), finish = 2:47:04 by my watch, but it was officially 2:47:07
anyway-- that's the analysis.
I'm still so mad at myself-- so mad. keep crying. i told myself that tomorrow i'll be happy about it, but today i have to analyze. and let myself be disappointed. 2012 dream lost.  One minute away in 2004. One minute away in 2012.
It was a perfect day-- all 6 of my friends made it.  Only I didn't.  Still plan to travel to Houston to cheer for the whole 13 from the Impala Racing team who made it over the last 2 years.  AMAZING team. 

 Also want to document what I ate for the last 3 days-- maybe a glycogen/nutrition problem: working backwards: breakfast today: 4:50 a.m. for the 7 a.m. start: oatmeal, banana, half a power bar, Guava juice (thought about the fructose:glucose ratio-helping for absorption.  dinner night before: spagetti maranara sauce w chicken-1.5 breasts, 5 pices of bread, prezles to snack most the day, turkey sandwich  on wheat bread, some sweet potatoe with salt, for lunch, mid-morning snack: steel cut oats w banana, breakfast steel cut oats with raisins. (2 servings total if including mid morning snack and breakfast).

Day before that... foggy memory. Dinner was lemon pepper pasta, no sauce, and bread, lunch was what-- dont' remember right now. breakfast was wheat chex.

Dang Emily, I have been waiting to see your attempt. You deserve to grieve--you have worked so hard, been through so much, and you were so close. Not sure, "no regrets" is appropriate, I personally have many regrets, but you have much to be proud of. You were so close, if only you had had a bit more luck on your side. Hugs from afar.

I think your perspective is admirable, congratulations to your team members.

That is a great time and congrats on the PR. I know that it seems like a hollow consolation, but you ran a strong and courageous race and should be proud of even being up there trying for such a hard goal. You ran strong, but as we all know the marathon is a hard beast to conquer. Keep your head up and know that you were right there.

From Jake K on Mon, Dec 05, 2011 at 11:55:36 from 155.100.226.53

I don't even know what to say Emily. On one hand I want to tell you that you should still be happy with the PR and an incredible race... but I know as well as anyone that is hardly the constellation prize that you want at this point. Its going to hurt for a while. But that is what happens sometimes when you chase big dreams and really care about what you are doing. You came so close... I was absolutely heartbroken for you when I saw the results yesterday. I'm getting tears in my eyes right now as I type this because I know how bad you wanted this, and you were ready to do it.

I'm really glad we've gotten to know you this fall. Watching you and Andrea do some of those big workouts together was something that I really cherish about these last few months - the friendships forged through a common goal, working together, inspiring each other, motivating each other. You are an amazing runner and person - and 2:47 is still an awesome time - keep that big picture in mind over the next couple weeks.

From allie on Mon, Dec 05, 2011 at 13:09:43 from 161.38.218.168

you are an incredible runner and i admire you for all the hard work you put in and the guts it took to chase that dream.

From runningafterbabies on Mon, Dec 05, 2011 at 13:59:18 from 71.195.219.247

You are so talented and have a lot of determination, grit and courage.

Be sad for as long as you need to. It's ok to feel bummed about it, and don't ever feel like you have to justify yourself - even if it is a PR.

So sorry Emily. At least you got some of the best cliches that I've ever heard uttered from allie's mouth.

Any chance you're joining us tomorrow?

planning on it :-). I might be rusty, but will love the company. 8 a.m. at the 30th south JRP?

That's it. I'm feeling a little achy and creaky. Part of being 47 I guess. These longish runs are much easier in a group though. I'm more focused on the conversation than my aches and pains.

I'm trying to get one of my former runners to join us. Do you know Jon Kotter? He won Des News and St. George this year. He's in his last year of law school at BYU.

No-- don't know him, but I would like to. I would like more people to run with down here.

6 miles on icy liberty park loop.  6:30s mostly, but the last 2 were 6:25 and 6:26.  Way harder than it should have been to run that pace!
