| 5 TM miles in 43:15. Progression run from 10:00 min. pace to 7:20 pace. 4 degrees outside and icy roads make me happy to have the TM, which I otherwise hate. Hamstring feeling okay. Still having some S.I. joint problems, which so far isn't much of an issue during the run. |

| 5 TM miles at 5:00 a.m. in 46:42. Easy running with some gradual progression from 10:00 min. pace to 8:35. 12 degrees outside. Not warming up much. |

| 5 TM miles in 46:47 at 5:00 a.m. Fairly easy running. Should have hit the streets. I didn't realize it was a balmy 22 degrees outside until I left for work. Oh, well. Tomorrow a 14 miler in the rain or snow, they say. But, it might be a bit warmer still. |

| 14 miles in 2:05:06 at 8:00 a.m. with Tina. 8:56 average pace. Fastest mile: Mile 9 at 7:26, slowest mile: 10:15, mile 14. Smelter Road hills up to the gate and back to TIna's for 12. I did an additional 2 mile loop over to Coleman to make 14, but pretty slow coming back uphill at 10:00 min. pace. We avoided the storm, but it was icy up at about 5,800 ft. where we turned around. I'm pretty paranoid on the ice after taking a couple of good falls the last few years. Tina got way out in front of me by about 50 yards or more. I couldn't keep up. Did a bit better coming back down the hill. Near 40 degrees starting out. Compared to what it's been it was pretty mild out. A cold head wind coming back down wasn't the most pleasant at times. Longest run since SGM. Hamstring holding out okay. 41 miles this week. |
