Last night Andrea brought the "good" camera to the track and shot some higher-speed video while I was running my workout (5K Tempo + 8x200m). It wasn't until very recently that we realized the camera that gave us so many excellent skiing photos also shoots some very nice slow motion video. This will be especially nice for ski season, but its pretty cool for running, too!
Here's what she shot last night... I think this proves I am a midfoot striker...

The BIG Tempo Run
There are workouts, and there are the BIG workouts. Everything has a purpose, whether its a quick set of 200s on the track, mile repeats at Liberty Park, long runs on the Jeremy Ranch road, etc.
We've done a mix of all kinds of things this fall... a bunch of building blocks, sort of like puzzle pieces, that hopefully come together perfectly and set us up to run 26.2 miles as fast as possible.
After the Long Beach 1/2 Marathon, our focus shifted to very specific marathon-paced tempo runs. Our "signature" workout is a 13.1 mile tempo run at marathon pace. I figure that if you can run that workout on tired legs (you do it during your highest mileage weeks), and at altitude, then you can run twice the distance at that pace when tapered, rested, and at sea-level.
Last night we did the BIG tempo. I ran 1:09:16, Andrea ran 1:22:48. Both right on the pace we need to hit in just over 3 weeks.
Here's a video I shot... once you get through the first minute of my rambling, there's some good footage of Andrea running strong and smooth...

JMT Daily Updates Video
Throughout the hike, we did a bunch of progress updates on video. It started as a nightly update, then expanded to include mid-day updates as we felt confident that we'd have enough battery power for our cameras to last the entire trip.
Its 18 minutes long, but well worth it! :-) Enjoy!
