| Visiting my family in Eastern Oregon; once again out of internet land. This was an interval run. 6 intervals, totalling 3.2 miles at target tempo pace of 7:50. Actual paces were 7:44, 7:46, 8:06, 7:49, 7:36, and 7:49. The roads are snowy and icy; had to wear my mom's yak trax. |

| Running with my brother. Beautiful over here on the east side; cold (8 degrees!) and icy, hard packed snow roads. The sun is heavenly and I am trying to absorb all I can; I go home tomorrow. |

| Track workout. Not very cold out, but dark and raining hard and windy. When will all the darkness end? 1200s were at 7:45, 7:38, and 7:49 mile paces. 200s were 46, 45, 47, and 49.

| Whew! I guess I'll have to add my skating boots to the shoe count above. 2 hours on the skate skis at a nice clip in perfect, very fast snow! Lots of climbing uphill - what a fantastic workout. This skate skiing is turning out to be the absolutely ideal crosstraining tool for me. Its easy to get a workout, even intervals, and its a whole different muscle workout. Anyone else out there skate ski? |

| Lack of sleep is really starting to make me run badly. Just easy miles this morning, at an average pace of 9:17. It was a beautiful morning to get out anyway, balmy and clear. Hard to believe, since it is literally dumping snow up on the mountain right now! I couldn't really do the tempo workout that was planned for today (too tired), so I used this run to focus on form. |
