| | Ran outside @ 8:00 with Alana, Gama, Shelley & Mandy. What a great time. Some did 6, some 8 and Shelley 10. Loving our Sunday group runs - pain free run, has felt great all day. Will still ice tonight, as always, but looking forward to five or six days of running this week. Think the miles will be kept around 3, 4 & a 5 for mid week...then we will see how far next Sunday. Possibly just add a mile (7)...really want to play it safe ~ |

| | ran 4 X 800's today on TM...the first two at 8.0MPH and the last two at 8.2 MPH...not sure what pace that is, but was good for me. I think I can go faster, but wasn't sure for the first time! |

| | Ran outside @ 12:00 today. 32 degrees with 15-20 mile hour winds. Ran from my house, looped freeman park. not too bad then on west side of the river...not too bad. SRL was a brutal stretch into strong head wind and pelting snow! I was able to make it around the bend then east on Sunny Side to my folks place. WHEW ~ 8:33 pace!!!!!!!!!! YIEPPPEEEE I told Alana that one must run fast to get the heck out of those conditions :) Feel great! Worship time was sooo good today as well!! |

| | Ran @ gym. first 4 1/2 @ a 9min. pace ~ bumped it up b/c I was sooo HOT, but then got wiggy hot and had to bump back down for half mile then finished the last mile strong and fast. I wore a tech tee that drapes and it was just too hot. I needed a tank. At one point I contemplated stripping but then thought those around me would frown :) Good to run beside Marlin and his beautiful Wife - Mauri (body felt great other than too warm) |
