In an effort to try and simplify things, I'm going to post all of my week's running (by day) on Saturday. We'll see if this works.
Mon- 4.01 to the railroad tracks & back. I was dehydrated and tired. These 4 miles were difficult.
Tues - 6.2 to the blinking light & back. My old nemesis dog was out on the way back, along with a new friend that is a huge dog. They ran across a 55 mph road to come at me (no owners in sight anywhere), so they got some pepper spray. Better than a bullet. I sure wish these dog owners would be more responsible. Their advice to me in February when the dog came at me was that I needed to try and pet her because she was friendly. Uh, no.
Wed -8.02. 4 in the hood, then 4 outside of the hood. Nothing exciting.
Thursday - 4.06 to the railroad tracks again. Much better than Monday's run. Progressive run in the light rain.
Friday - cold & rainy. Staying inside and did elliptical. It's the first time I've used it since they installed the new fly wheel. It felt 5 times harder than I remembered. At least I was warm.
Saturday - 13.3 miles. My own version of my new year half marathon. Cold and overcast the whole time. I was going to go to the gym on base, but after thinking about it, I decided I'd rather be cold and run outside and be stuck on a treadmill for 2 hours. So I ran two loops around the flight line on base.
35.59 for the week. I'm going to try and start building my long distances on the weekends. 18 mile trail run coming up in February.
