I swore the house was going to blow away last night. A nice warm front moved in and warmed things up nicely this weekend with a big storm projected for today. I woke up to no snow so I was excited to run outside this morning. The wind was still going strong at 15-20 mph but it was a balmy 38 degrees. I ran the Providence - River Heights run as most of the miles are East-West and I can handle a cross-wind no sweat. I started out with 3 miles warmup at just over 7 min pace then hit a fast mile with the wind in 5:55. Then a cross-wind mile in 6:36 followed by a tough mile into the wind in 6:54. The last 2 miles were heading back West so more crosswind. 6:36 then decided to hit it hard again and hit a 6:08 feeling good.

Just another morning on the Treadmill. I didn't want to risk slipping on the super slick roads this morning and end up like Paul. Sorry Paul. So another episode of 24 later and 6 miles were done. Will run more tonight...of course.

Ran with Jon after work.  It was cold and windy, but time went by fast.  Easy pace on the 6 mile landfill loop.  We need Paul to get healthy again to spice things up.  The Logan group is pretty sad right now.

Since it snowed again last night, I was resigned to the treadmill today. No biggie. 7 miles with 5x20 sec striders at 11mph. I feel out of control at 12mph, but 11 is much more comfortable.

3 more in the evening....

Another AM treadmill run. Today I mixed it up a bit. 2 miles at 7:30 pace then 4 miles at 6:40 then 2 more at 7:00. Was working hard for the 6:40 stuff, but not quite Tinman Tempo effort. Busy evening planned but will sneak in 2 more...

T-55:40 (6:57)

I actually got in 4 more.  Now I can slack off tomorrow and only run 8.  It is still snowing like crazy, so treadmill of course.  I am so sick of shoveling I am going crazy.

Met Jon at the Planet Walk and headed out on the Young Ward loop via the landfill.  Traffic was light and the roads were clear so it wasn't too bad of a run.  Still pretty chilly, but manageable.  We hit 7 sub 6:50 miles with some 7:10-7:20 stuff thrown in too.  I ran Jon home and added a bit to get 15 miles.  I ended up with 15.25 by the time I got home.  I looked at my overall pace at Jon's house and it read exactly 7 min ave so I made sure to stay under 7 min pace the rest of the way home.  I was tired by the end, but not dead, so the pace was pretty appropriate for the season.  Another good week of solid mileage.  I am starting to see the HR drop more so all indicators show progress is happening.  This January, I ran about 250 miles while last year, I ran 160 so I am starting off the year in the right direction.  Now, if the snow would stop falling, things would really be nice....
