Holy cow! it was a cold one today-woke up with frost everywhere. Got up early and did 4x1600s with 3 min (400m jog) in between. My splits were 6:07, 6:05, 6:02, 5:50. I was happy with this workout and the fact I got faster with each mile-felt good.  

3 easy b miles on the treadmill.  Wore my brand new saucony kinvara shoes today. They are only 6.7 oz and they feel like it-they are soo light! Felt like I was wearing nothing. I bought these to run the half marathon bc they are so light and should be a good racing shoe. Anyway today's easy run felt great.

Did a workout on the mill today. Did 5x800s with 8:30 pace 800m jog in between. My first 800 started out at 6:27 pace, then I picked up the pace by a couple seconds for the rest of them. Last one was a 6:05 pace. (avg pace for all 5 of them was 6:18) This was a moderate workout-I wanted to run my intervals a little slower-but keep the recovery pace faster.    

Did a 6 mile moderate run outside today. Splits were 7:34, 6:53, 6:32, 6:37, 7:44, 6:53. (avg pace 7:03) This loop is very hilly so that is why my splits are all over the place. Felt great! love running in the morning and having my workout done early for the day.

14 miles today! 8.5 miles outside-5.5 on the treadmill. (had to come back early-due to hubby leaving for work early.) Avg pace 7:48-felt tired today.
