#devildogdouble

Apparently I can’t say no to a #devildogdouble Dare // fastest 5 miles I’ve run at once and hottest 13.1, for sure. I may regret this tomorrow. #marinecorpshalfmarathon #runwiththemarines2019 (at Fredericksburg, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxp-9uLnW7tqj1k-YM74HAOEYFcM8OR_E4CMbc0/?igshid=11fly4z2m1rpi

New bling, who dis? 😂😂 . . #medalmonday hard fought and well earned medals from the Devil Dog Double yesterday! The heat, oh the BRUTAL heat! But we did it!! I’m so proud of my #BRF for sticking through the last few miles! It would have been so easy to stop. But instead, we crushed it! @naomi_gal . . Looking forward to some recovery and a few weeks to get acclimated to the heat before I try racing again! . . #medalhanger @alliedmedalhangers #devildogdouble #runwiththemarines #runchat

#FBF to last years #devildogdouble! I can’t believe we’re crazy enough to do this again!!! So excited to be running with @naomi_gal after so many weeks off!!!

Ahhhh!!! I’m so lucky to be training with @naomi_gal this season!! (okay, year, because she’s the only other person I know who’s up for 20 milers 9 months out from our goal Marathon!) . . We’re so in sync, we were both thinking we’d close out January with 8 miles for our mid week, morning run. I was feeling sore from swimming and probably not enough recovery post-Dopey, so the lan was to take it easy. “Easy” has become a relative term.... 1 mile warm up, 5 descend 8:27, 8:26, 8:19, 8:03, 8:02, then 2 mile easy up those awful hills to finish it out! All done with a 90:30 interval!! . . Talk about grateful! I’ve loved training with all the girls I’ve trained with, they are the reason I’m a runner, but having a start to finish plan with someone who’s my pace is a totally different experience!! So, thank you, Naomi, for coming to the “interval dark side” AND running Chicago with Team in Training with me! . . #intervalrunner #teamintraining #outforblood #chicagomarathon2018 #devildogdouble #bqorbust

#latergram 17 chilly miles with @naomi_gal! . Started out at 6am with @celiac_runner for 7 miles at 9:30, then met up with @manda_k_runs and we split into pace groups! Naomi and I kept our pace conversational, aiming for endurance zone miles. Tempo miles slipped themselves into our workout, but it felt so easy we just went with it!! . It’s so nice to feel like you’ve got gas in the tank while crushing paces! I’m so happy to have a training buddy that’s up for a fall BQ attempt WITH intervals! . #galloway #intervalrunner #bqorbust #teamintraining #outforblood #chicago2018 #yearroundmarathontraining #devildogdouble #runwiththemarines
