run, run, run

Boise, ID 6:30 am

Pace: 8.07

I don't think I slept very well last night. I felt really weird when I woke up and kind of felt like I was in a fog for the first 4 miles or so. It turned out to be a decent run, however. Increased the pace with each mile ending up with 7.38 on mile 6.

It's supposed to be getting colder and start snowing tonight. Supposed to run with Neil in the morning. I guess we'll find out what he's made of.

Running in the snow kind of slows you down. I went up Cloverdale and met up with Neil. The weather was much more comfortable than I expected. 33 degrees with no wind. We ran a few miles and then on the way back the temps started dropping and the wind picked up. The thermometer read 28 by the time I got home.

If the weather reports are correct, tomorrow morning is going to suck.

Cold this morning. Temps in the teens, but I bundled up and got er done.

Pace: 7:23

No Turkey Trot here in Boise and the girly-men at church cancelled the Turkey Bowl due to the cold weather, so I decided to run my own 10k. It was 11 degrees out, but the streets weren't as icey as they were yesterday. Also no traffic, so that was nice. I was hoofin' it. I finished 10k in 45:50 which would be my second-best.

Since I was the only one racing, I assume I won my age group.

Boise, ID 10:45am

Pace: 7:40

Runnin off the turkey. Interesting thing about today's run is that my first four miles were all at the same pace 7:44. Then I sped up a bit to finish at 7:40. That was faster than I'd planned on running, so I guess it's a good thing.
