Finding motivation this time of year can be challenging. It seems like every cell in my body wants to go into hibernation mode. Every year I have to remind myself that it happens and it's normal as the weather cools and the days get colder. I try to listen to this natural (likley biological) urge and I tend to sleep more and appreciate the cozy moments. However, this is not an excuse to stop running. Holding on to my fitness is important so it's all about finding ways to stay motivated.

One way I stay motivated is by signing up for local running events and holiday races. I don't expect any PRs but I do try to use them as motivation to keep running and stay fit during my "off-season." I know that if I can go into my base training phase even stronger and faster than the year before, I will have a better chance of reaching my marathon goal.

Here in Fort Collins the local run club offers a Tortoise and Hare race series, which offers a monthly "race" of varying distances. It is a great way to stay engaged during the winter months. Luckily, November's 5k was a brisk but sunny day. Next up, I'll definitely be doing a turkey trot.

This is also a great time of year to attend local run group meet-ups and plan runs with running buddies. It is a lot easier to get up and run on a cold day if you know someone is joining you. I mean "misery loves company" as the saying goes πŸ˜†lol, 😜.

I ran the CSU Homecoming 5k today and surpassed my expectations. All I wanted was to be faster than 19 minutes. I have been training to run under 19, so I knew it was possible. So when I came in around 18:30, I realized I was well under that time.

I have to be honest, I'm a terrible record keeper. I am pretty sure my 5k PR is just under 18 minutes or maybe 17:30, but I never wrote this down anywhere. I honestly have no idea what my PR is. I guess this happens when you've been running for 30 yesrs? So I scoured the internet trying to find it with no success, but this was likely before running results were added to the internet. I think this result has an age graded time of just under 18 minutes. So let's just say this is my masters running era PR. Either way, I think I have more in me and I'm going to keep pushing until Father Time finally slows me down.

I was contemplating why im running better now than in my 30s. I think it's a lot of things, but here are a few:
1. Smarter training! A well thought out training plan where the easy days are actually easy and my key workouts are done with purpose.
2. Probably better shoes make a difference. I mean let's be honest, the shoes are definitely helping us all be at least a little faster.
3. A periodized nutrition plan and fueling better. Carbs!
4. Sleep...I'm a stickler about going to bed early.
5. Very limited alcohol intake. Like maybe one drink a week and no alcohol for weeks on end during a marathon build. Alcohol makes sleep worse and ruins recovery. The effects have gotten worse in my perimenopause years.

Finally, my mindset has a lot to do with it. I believe I can run faster so I try not to limit myself. I know I can't run a 16 min 5k, but maybe under 18. It's definitely possible.
