After a couple of relaxing days with the ‘rents it is back to the normal routine in the Lindley household. It was great to get away for a bit but now that I am back it is the end of one training cycle and soon the beginning of the next. I think I’m to that point in this cycle where I am tired, emotional, questioning every run, and wanting to go out and do longer runs to prove that I will be fine....typical taper time. Guess it is time to take a deep breath, have some quality final runs, and trust the training.....🤮 Have a wonderful Wednesday! #workoutwednesday #runday #tapertime #beachbodycoach #tritraining #eatmywake #thenpassmeontherun #butmaybenotthisyear #chooseyou #choosehappy #chooseconfidence #choosecourage

4 days till @thecowtown marathon. . . Easy 60 minutes on the schedule today. It’s actually harder for me to stay consistent with pacing than one would think. Doing well mentally. Getting through the week without overthinking the fact that marathon #7 is around the corner. . . My workout at home was different today: no music, no cues, just quiet. It was intentional. The point was to motivate yourself, rather than waiting on someone else to motivate and get you through the workout. What do you tell yourself when it gets hard? What is the soundtrack running through your mind? . . Sometimes, it’s good to just be quiet. To reflect. To allow yourself to FEEL the movements, the push, the victory in doing one more rep than last time. . . What do you tell yourself? What is going through your mind? Is it positive or negative? Would you say the same things to someone else? I’ve learned that if I don’t stay in the Word of God and keep filled with positive, personal development, I won’t hit my goals. I’ve got to stay in it, mentally and spiritually, as well as physically. . . . #startwhereyouare #youareworthit

Room for improvement with the grab and go but I'm told there'll be bottles at #lakebiwamarathon 👍 With there now being just over two weeks until race day I had one of my last solid workouts, this being: 25 x 1min hard, 1 min float (3:00min/km avg, 3:40min/km avg). Total distance 15km at 3.20 min/km avg. The body felt good and I'm looking forward to what I hope will be a seamless taper. Thanks @myspringenergy_nzau for being my main nutrition source in the #NZCT #halfmarathon on the weekend with a #canaberry gel in hand and cheers to Rowan Greig who captured this moment of gracelessness #🐂 #inachinashop #wreckless #runthecity #run #workoutwednesday #marathon #training #drinkstop #hydrationstation #tapertime #springtribe #wellingtonscottish

Last long run DONE! ✅ I did an out and back route so I could hit those hills TWICE. I used to make sure I hit those hills once every long run and now I try to do them twice- cause more is always better, right?? 😂 #speedworkindisguise 😏👍🏼 Taper time begins since race day is 12 days out now. Unlike most runners, I actually like tapering! ☺️😴 At this point in training I’m usually ready for some shorter runs and extra rest. 😆 Am I the only one?? #longrunday #halfmarathontraining #runallthemileseatallthefood #strongereveryday #rungirl #hayisinthebarn #tapertime #runnersofinstagram #runnerscommunity #runnermom #iloverunning #irunforfun

Oh I love it when a run goes exactly as planned!! ❤️💪🏻🏃‍♀️ Plan said tempo run: 30 min of tempo (7:22-7:40 pace) sandwiched in between a good warm up & cool down.

5 days till @thecowtown . 5 miles on the plan. 2 easy, 3 tempo. Both paces were fast and I ended with #negativesplits , probably because I was ready to get home.😂🤣 . . Is it fair to say I’m tired but I’ll kinda miss marathon training? . . Came home and did my quick workout to round things out. Today was one of those days where you just get it done. Thank you Lord, it’s only 20 minutes!🙌🏻😉 . . #startwhereyouare #youareworthit

Getting after it again, but this time with my new #nikezoomfly shoes (hence the foot focused picture 🤣👟). Thank goodness I had @hotpinkrunner meet me today, because the 4:13 a.m. alarm clock was rather early this morning. Nobody said this marathoning biz would be easy! If I want to get big results, I have to sacrifice something, and for me often times it’s my sleep. I am just thankful I have fellow runner friends who are willing to do the same 😴🙌🏼. I could say it every single time I post about my workout, this runners community is something special! I really feel quite blessed to have it. But I digress 😉. Today’s workout was warmup and cool down with ladders going down, x2! I felt strong today, and while tired by the end, I nailed the workout 👊🏼. Call it the Zoom flys, whether placebo or not, but it was a good day on the *indoor* track. . . 2 mile warmup (9:17, 9:02) Two sets of the below with recovery in between👇🏼: 1600 @ 6:40 (6:36, 6:36) 1200 @ 5:07 (4:50, 4:55) 800 @ 3:20 (3:13, 3:13) 400 @ 1:40 (1:32, 1:34) 2 mile cool down (9:26, 9:02) . .

Getting ready for race day. Practicing a race start off the blocks.

I think we'll just leave this one here. In the lead up to the ultimate Hombre showdown at The Old Ghost Ultra, elderly hombre @benkepes was ditched on his training run by the other hombres. Distraught and emotional, he went and took out his trauma on the road and stole a @strava crown on a section of the Christchurch Marathon route. Something tells us that @oskabaynes and @chris_dunell won't like being relegated and some future carnage might ensue... #bangbang #theparkmakeshombres #avonloops #christchurch #tapertime

Food is fuel, but so is coffee. ☕ _ Today's workout: 1 up > 2 sets 5x200s > 1 down for 3.85 total treadmill miles. Pretty much over the winter weather at this point and itching for warmer, less windy days. _ 2 weeks out from the Crystal Coast half and I'm happy to be dialing it all back a bit.

Sundays @hyannismarathon went from snow forecast to rain and honestly, I’m so used to rain that it’s just another day to push me to my best (literally would make 7/14 fulls done in some variation of rain😂). I think I actually do best in the rain so let’s see!! I have no expectations for Sunday other than smiling and being proud that I’ve put in such hard work this winter. To answer anyone’s Q of why I’d sign up for a winter full on the cape, the answer was so I would have to put in the work in the winter months to be better and more fit come spring instead of looking back in April thinking I could’ve done better in these crucial weeks. And I think I’ve accomplished that goal. So I’m excited for this tune-up marathon to see how better my running is come @njmarathon. 4 easy miles done today for race week ✔️[Photo from @newportmarathon 10.2017] #marathontraining #winterruns #myrunjourney #19bydec2019 #runhappy #tapertime #raceweek

Starting to wind things down in preparation for the Hypothermic Half (in two weeks 😳)!! Just short of 15km today 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ • Three bridge to bridge loops because I knew it would be nice footing (although got caught up a couple of times in Winterlude crowds) - didn’t look at my watch at all because I wanted to go keep it steady and go on feel - and only stopped once right near the end to get this picture because.... 😍 • Even though it’s still in the ‘feels like -20’ territory, that sun sure does make things better ☀️

I could not have done this training cycle without this beautiful lady @charitythurman ❤️, who has been suffering with me during all those very long runs - hey, suffering together is so much better!🤪 Today felt good and we finished feeling strong! We are both ready to taper, though! It is incredible when we catch ourselves saying things like - next week we ONLY need to run 12 miles, right?!!😆 Hope you all have a great rest of your Saturday! - 🇧🇷Uhull!!! Finalmente hora de pegar mais leve nas distâncias!!! 🤩🤩🤩 - Depois dos 32k de hoje, finalmente estou me sentindo pronta para minha ultra! Não teria sido possível terminar este ciclo de treinamento sem essa queridíssima amiga @charitythurman ❤️ que tem sofrido comigo durante todos esses longões - ei, sofrer junto é muito melhor! 🤪 Hoje nos sentimos bem e terminamos fortes! Estamos as duas prontas para diminuir a quilometragem até a prova! É incrível como quando temos que fazer tanta corrida longa, nos pegamos dizendo coisas como - semana que vem a gente só precisa de 19km, né?!!😆 Um ótimo resto de sábado a todos e boa sorte pra galera que vai correr em Sampa amanhã! ____________________________________________ #correrfazbem #marathoner #happyrunner #eucorro #trilhando #trailrunning #trailrunner #tapertime #runner #runnersofinstagram #instarunners #runnershigh #runshots #amocorrer #boracorrer #focanacorrida #womensrunningcommunity #bettertogether #trailsisters #runnerswanderlust #corremulherada #antelopecanyon55k #ultratraining #irunthisbody #corre #mountainrunning #naturelover #optoutside #californialove #runchat

Now just 2 more weeks to get through before the big day. * A surprise visit from @hannah_jord and @gilbey1977 made the day even more special because these two people always bring sunshine (ok maybe not today!!) and PBs to Cornwall! Wonderful to celebrate with a cheeky bucks fizz and lovely brunch at @the_longstore * Amazing run by @psoleruns26.2 who also smashed his PB and got a sub 17.

13 miles, 13 degrees and a fierce NW wind. The sweep times in Tokyo are weighing on my mind. Since I’m in one of the last corrals and sweeps are calculated on gun time vs chip, it’ll take me a good 20 minutes to start the race so the 5k and 10k sweeps will come fast. I ran the first 10k today with that in mind and came up with about a 10 minute buffer so I should be ok. I’m just getting my mental game in order. On a positive note I’m still in ❤️ with these Asics + Balega Silver socks! 2 weeks til Tokyo! 🇯🇵 #running #fitwithglg #tokyomarathon2019 #londonmarathon2019 #teamwr #marathon #marathontraining #runtheworld #fitafter50 #balegaimpi2019 #winter #february #chiberia #teamwr #whstrong #sweatpink #tapertime #wmmajors

Last 20 miles before the @wbmarathon ✅. Started the day at 5:15 with @kimberlycharlett for 4 miles, then met up with @hotpinkrunner and @ravi.sundara for another 4.5 mile loop before heading to pick up @saramyatt. Ran in to Joe and brought him along for the 11.5 we had left on the way to get Sara! My plan was to do 8:30-9 for the first 8 miles, start to pick up pace for miles 9-10, and then settle in to goal marathon pace (7:50-8) for miles 11-18 before cooling back down for the last 2. Ended up cruising around 7:40s for those miles and felt super strong today. It was fun running with so many friends and knocking out my last 20 for this training cycle. A bit chilly today (around 10 degrees!) which adds in another layer to consider, and I was so happy when the run was over, but also felt like I had more in the tank. North Carolina, I’m ready for you. 21 days to go 💪🏼🏃🏼‍♀️👊🏼. . . . . . #runtherace #runnersofinstagram #runningmama #50statesmarathonclub #hogeyemarathon #wbmarathon #solesisters #stretchruncoaching #runningaccountability #runner #runnergirl #anothermotherrunner #marathontraining #alwaysmarathontraining #marathonrunner #instarunners #noexcuses #runningcoach #running #irunthisbody #winterrunning #fitmama #5amismyhappyhour #saturdaylongrun #longrun #tapertime

Excited to see what I will accomplish at Albany Marathon in just a couple of weeks. @rashedahb, thanks for tackling those early miles with me! #tapertime #marathontraining #saturdaylongrun #AlbanyMarathon2019 #shootingforBQtime #justkeeprunning #earlymorningrunner #workdone #workaddicts #mrtt #mrtttally #beatyesterday #mcmillantrainingplan #mcmillanrunteam

Running Streak Day 47 Marathon Group Pacing I 💛 Taper Time! Today's run was heads and shoulders better than last week's. A real confidence boost I think. Non stop conversation and only one pit stop at mile 4. 🎉🎉 Followed this little diddy with 30 mins of yoga. Now I'm off to tackle my elusive to-do list and decide finally whether to sign up for a local ultra! 📄☑️ #marathonpacing #marathontraining #marathonrunner #ultrarunner #runningwithfriends #runningeverydamnday #runstreak #tapertime #chattyrunner #ywacare #yogaforstress #todo #fleetfeetrunningclub #fleetfeetstuart #runsmart #irunthisbody #runnersofinstagram #comparisonisthethiefofjoy

🇺🇸Woohoo!!! Finally taper time!!! 🤩🤩🤩 - After today’s 20 miler, I am finally as ready as I can be for my ultra! I could not have done this training cycle without this beautiful lady @charitythurman ❤️, who has been suffering with me during all those very long runs - hey, suffering together is so much better!🤪 Today felt good and we finished feeling strong! We are both ready to taper, though! It is incredible when we catch ourselves saying things like - next week we ONLY need to run 12 miles, right?!!😆 Hope you all have a great rest of your Saturday! - 🇧🇷Uhull!!! Finalmente hora de pegar mais leve nas distâncias!!! 🤩🤩🤩 - Depois dos 32k de hoje, finalmente estou me sentindo pronta para minha ultra! Não teria sido possível terminar este ciclo de treinamento sem essa queridíssima amiga @charitythurman ❤️ que tem sofrido comigo durante todos esses longões - ei, sofrer junto é muito melhor! 🤪 Hoje nos sentimos bem e terminamos fortes! Estamos as duas prontas para diminuir a quilometragem até a prova! É incrível como quando temos que fazer tanta corrida longa, nos pegamos dizendo coisas como - semana que vem a gente só precisa de 19km, né?!!😆 Um ótimo resto de sábado a todos e boa sorte pra galera que vai correr em Sampa amanhã! ____________________________________________ #correrfazbem #marathoner #happyrunner #eucorro #trilhando #trailrunning #trailrunner #tapertime #runner #runnersofinstagram #instarunners #runnershigh #runshots #amocorrer #boracorrer #focanacorrida #womensrunningcommunity #bettertogether #trailsisters #runnerswanderlust #corremulherada #antelopecanyon55k #ultratraining #irunthisbody #corre #mountainrunning #naturelover #optoutside #californialove #runchat

Last long run done before the St George Marathon 🙌🏻🏃🏼‍♀️💜 10 miles easy paced with 2 miles at marathon goal pace today and now the full on taper begins! I can’t believe race week is next Saturday! . . This will be my 9th StG marathon and my 17th full marathon. I am not an expert by any means, but I’ve ran enough to know what works for my body and what doesn’t. So I’m trying to remember this when I go into the taper craziness and question everything as we runners often do the week or so before the race. I’m going to trust my training and taper right and be ready on race morning. . . I know the St George course well and love it. I’ve ran many PRs on the course and 2 Boston Qualifying Times. It belongs to my slowest marathon in 2010 when I ran after having a 4 month old baby, and my second fastest PR and BQ last year. It was my first marathon ever and we used to live there so I know how much it means to the city and runners that are from there. It is very special to me. I’m so excited to see all of my running friends and experience one of the greatest marathons together this year! Im so excited! #StGeorgeMarathon #LongRun #TaperTime

1 6 M I L E S. Couldn’t have asked for this to go better. I *actually* got 8 hours of sleep last night, and was out the door by 6:30am so the weather was 👌🏼. The race pace miles in the middle of this run felt amazing 💪🏼.
