Great run Saturday, not so great run Monday. It was perfect weather all day long while I was at work, but as soon as I went at 4, the clouds, rain, and wind showed up. Oh well. I was supposed to do speed, but it didn't work out so well. I did 3 miles easy, then did 1 mile on the track. It wasn't speed though. Only lane 8 had been cleared of snow and the wind was rough as could be, so it resulted in 5:41, not much quicker than my 15th mile on Saturday. One more mile, then decided to leave the track and run some hills (speedwork in disguise, or so my H.S. coach would say). Felt like a worthless run as a whole, but I suppose it's natural to have a few every once in a while. Speedstar | Add Comment |

I got what I wanted for Christmas! A 3 mile run! I wanted to go for more, but that's all time would allow. Broke in some new shoes. The jury is still debating on whether they like them.

| | Tempo Run today. 17 degrees and the roads were a mix of snow and ice, so not the best of runs, but not bad. The run was a mix of easy, speed, easy, speed, etc. Started with 2 easy miles, then a 2 mile tempo. I did 5:35, then 5:21 giving me 10:57 and a 5:28 average. Then I did 1 mile easy, followed by another 2 mile tempo. This one was much better, ran in 5:13 and 5:03 (10:16, 5:08 average). I finished off the run with 2 more easy miles. Much better run then Monday, so I'm happy. Speedstar | Comments(2) |

I was supposed to run a long run today with slower times, but I felt great and it turned into more of a tempo run. I went to my parents home in Hurricane last night so I could run in some warmer temps and avoid the snow and ice. I'm glad I did. It felt good to open up my stride and not worry about slick roads.
I started with 1 easy mile, then turned on the Garmin and went for the scheduled 10 miles. The pace I was shooting for was 5:50, slightly faster than last weeks run. I felt great and had no problem maintaining the pace. Finished the 10 mile course and did 1 more easy mile. Fun stuff. My body feels strong right now, much better than I was last year at this time.
Total Time (10 miles): 56:31
Pace: 5:39

3 junk miles tonight after work. Really didn't want to run, but I had to do something to burn off lunch (one too many pizza slices). Treadmill at 5 percent incline, easy pace.
