Blake Bennions running

Warmed up a mile.

4 miles at 6:44, felt a little uncomfortable but not too bad.

Cooled down a quarter mile, I hate cooling down on treadmills and I don't need too much of a cooldown from 6:40 pace. I walked around a bit and then did 5 minutes of rowing.

Snowed a bunch more today, it's prepetually dark and freezing these days. I was having trouble getting motivated to go running today, been a tough and gloomy week.

Went to the gym and ran a little over 4 easy miles on the treadmill. Went home and ran through the blizzard to subway and back.

Ran just over a mile to the school gym. Did arm day with Ian for about 60-90 minutes of lifting. Ran 3 miles from the school gym to planet fitness. I ran 4.4 miles at 6:48 pace, 30 minutes on the treadmill. Then I ran to subway and got a sandwhich before finishing the run home. This morning was under 10 degrees and after wind chill and humidity it was the equivalent of -10. So today was possibly my hardest day before the marathon just because of that. Next weeks half marathon should be easier. I averaged 7:05 for the 6.3 miles I did outside. I wasn't trying to run fast for them, I feel like in this cold I felt like I would freeze in place at any slower. Put in a great day of training. Now it's time to go work on my thesis and readings.
