Fast MP run. Warm up 1 6:39, 2-8 6:15, 9 6:06, .5 cool down. Overall 9.5/1:00:27/6:22

Decided I need to feel a more consistent MP so I just set the TM and left it. Pace felt pretty good although at the end it was some work maintaining and dropping to faster finishing pace.

Still haven't fully recovered from being sick. My stomach is a mess and I have a real lack of energy. We'll see how this week progresses.

Ok so this beat me up a bit. I did some speed work at first. Quick warm up then 4 miles 24:37 / 6:06 short cool down then 3miles x 2 at 7:01 pace. My legs are blown up. Not sure if its because my mileage has been like a roller coaster the last month and a half or because I was sick last week. Anyways, I can't believe I do things like this to myself. I know it wasn't a hard run and I know I've done a lot worse and felt better but I hurt nonetheless.

Getting excited for Christmas, my 8 year old daughter woke up this morning and her first words were "5 more days till Christmas" with a huge smile on her face. Christmas is great when you're a kid. I love that mine are still little. Really enjoy reading Christmas stories and Christ's birth stories this time of year with them. There is really nothing better than the selfless acts of many, if even they happen more often once a year.

"Dog-Aided" recovery turned progression run.

I'm thankful for warm running tights, synthetic down jackets, balaclavas, compression socks, gloves and running glasses even when they fog up....

1-6:51, 2-6:36, 3-6:30, 4-6:28, 5-5:55 

I forgot a Siberian Husky that goes nuts when it snows and pushes me worse than most running partners could.

Easy paced run. Legs a little tight. Beautiful day, I was wishing I would've brought my cold weather gear so I could've ran outside. I did a lot of visualization of where I would be on my routes as I ran. I forget how much time you have to think on longer distance runs. It was a good time just to relax and meditate and get lost in the run. Today was one of those days that help me to remember the joy of running, the rhythm and peace it brings.

I am thankful that I can run.

1 mile warm up then 3 miles x 3 at HMP/Threshold. Felt better than earlier in the week. Now I'm off work until January 2. Next week looks like a couple days skiing with the kids.

I'm thankful for my family.
