| A low heart run. I usually hate these runs, because they are so bloody slow! But, it was snowy and slushy, which slows things down anyway, and I ran with a friend, and it was really beautiful along the trails, so I enjoyed it this morning. an hour and forty minutes, average heart rate of 136. The great thing about these runs is that you don't even feel tired afterwards; I think I'll go up and skate ski a bit more this afternoon! |

| No running today; only yoga class and a 45 minute strength workout. Two nights in a row now of decent sleep time, and I am actually feeling GREAT! Can't wait for tomorrow and another snowy run. |

| Swimming practice this morning, with focus on glide and length in the water. 1 hour of low heart rate running at 11:37 average pace and HR of 135. Trails are still icy and snowy and we still have snow on the ground, with more expected tonight! Unfortunately, it is supposed to turn much warmer tomorrow and wash it all away. DRAT!

| Skate ski day! This workout kicked my butt seriously. 2.5 hours on the skis, with kind of an interval workout in there with hill sprints. This is seriously good cross training for runners! Did about 40 minutes of planks and yoga before bed.

| Downhill skiing in the am; the snow is not good, so I only lasted 1/2 day. Then an easy run home from the grocery store, which felt so good by mile 4.5 that I did the last bit at marathon pace. Just felt really good today for some reason. |
