| AM-Treadmill for 6 miles with some some faster running at the end. No incline. 8.0-9.7 mph. (41:47) Celebrated the New Years with the family and then listened to some old Cuban music I had. Something about Cuban folk music that just makes you forget about all the other garbage that's happening in the world and to remember the simpler things. I'm not sure why..
Actually I do:)

| AM-Woke up this morning with a cracked voice and bodyaches. I knew this was coming based on the chills and space heater usage at my table last night.. Bagged it and turned for home at the half mile point. I want to move to Arizona!
I think this is the first time I have ever posted just one mile for an entry. Usually out of pride I slug it out for at least four or five miles. Not this time though.. I feel like I have been run over by a Mack truck.. Bronchitis here we come.

| AM-10 miles with 6 miles steady state progressive to MP. 6:10-6:40/mile pace. Felt like I had a loss of fitness with the flu doing it's best to make a rebound last night. And the inversion definitely isn't the best catalyst for the respiratory system that is definitely for sure.

| AM-10 miles with 5 on the mill (32:51) and 5 on the roads up to and back home via 13th east/south route. Slow start but once the engine was warmed up things went smooth and was clicking off some good steady mileage. Pushups and core afterwards.

| AM-8 miles on the mill with last 3 at 6-6:10/mi. Some weights for quads and calves.
PM-A mile jog with Aaron out in the sun. Incredible weather this afternoon... Going long tomorrow for about 14-15 miles on hills with some Renato Canova style MP pace variations thrown in at the end. Grueling but also kind of fun if you don't overdo them.

| AM-Easy 6 miles on the mill. (7:33) avg with long warm up and cooldown. Middle miles were around 6:30-40/mile pace. Talked with someone at the gym today about their goal to run the upcoming SLC marathon and was glad to be able to help and give a little advice and encouragement. I can see why most coaches really love what they do.
I'll get to the long run tomorrow.. I know nothing like procrastination:)
PM-No run. Went to church and attended Sunday school. The subject was about the birth of Jesus in the the books of the New Testament. A really interesting lesson and discussion, and has also given me some good material to study and ponder this week. It's interesting to note that there was just not one witness to the veracity of this account.. but several. Something to think about. Also Matthew 7:12 on a side note..

PM-No run. It's been a really mixed bag of emotions today.. It's our wedding anniversary today however I also found out that my Dad had a stroke. But thankfully he is going to be ok. Not much else to say.

| AM-8 miles at 7-8/min/mile pace. Took it easy because of weights planned for tomorrow. Weight is up to 145 lbs which is the most I've weighed in years. But my waistline hasn't changed so thats definitely a good thing. Not worried, I will take all the extra weight I can get.. Tired of being skinny:)

| AM-8 miles at 6:20-6:30/mile steady state. 1% incline. I've become somewhat a curiosity and oddity at the gym it seems. Maybe because I spend so much time on the mill while most folks are walking I don't know. So I cut short and went to get some weight work in especially on the chest and biceps area. Felt great though:)

| AM-6 miles easy-medium aerobic. (7:12) avg at .5-1% incline. Weight work with the leg press machine and some tricep work. Foam roller also although I wonder if I'm doing that one correctly. But it does hurt though..
Slept pretty well last night but had a particularly vivid dream and made a note to remember it after waking up. I dreamt that I was at the University of Oregon and saw some of the greats there including the former Bill Bowerman. I won't bore you with the details but the message I got was to do what I was meant to do in life and not necessarily what I wanted.. What that is I'm not sure of, however I think it has something to do with academics and family. In the past one of the the biggest dreams I had in life was to be able to attend U of O and be on the track team. That didn't happen unfortunately..
Time to really reassess where I'm at in life and to make some good but equally meaningful goals.

| AM-4 miles easy. 7:36 avg. Rain supposedly coming Tuesday to clean things up in the air. Overall though I would have to say that air quality wise it hasn't been as bad as some years.

| AM-9 miles. No watch. I think I'm going to start doing the stair climber on a regular basis. I'm getting tired of having the same compensation issues and imbalances all the time. It's probably a combination of things, but mostly just being a distance runner. Anyway.. It probably won't hurt to try something new for a while.

| AM-Medium aerobic run-(Stairmaster for 20 minutes. Then moved over onto the mill at 9.0-9.5 incline adjusted for 6 miles with an additional 6 on the road combined at 7-7:20/mile or so. Weights both upper and lower body. Noticed some decent improvement on the leg press today, however I think my butt is going to be sore..
