Awesome weather this afternoon made for a very comfy run. It was nice to run without the full winter weather garb. My legs did feel a little tired from sat. run, but the last mile they actually felt stronger. I think my leg is doing much better, around 85% to 90% healed. We should be able to have a great week of training and building my base back up. I also did 30 min. of upper body weight training and finished with 200 crunches.

My Daughter Haylie went back to her home in Vegas today. She called around 1:30 p.m. time and said it was 70 degrees. Not fair!!! Well at least it's quite around here again.

It's a beautiful day, don't let it get away. Did my little river bottom 3 miler loop, was able to wear my shorts and a long sleeve top. It felt awesome to have some sunshine. My leg today was not even an issue, both legs felt real good with more energy than yesterday. I am going to pronounce myself  all better. I will still progress slowly and just listen to the old body. Increase milage next week. I was able to do 30 min of upper weight training, with 200 plus crunches. Today was a good day. I know there are more ahead.

 

Kayano 14's,  3.25 miles. I am going to like this shoe alot. Reminds of the Kayano 12 of a few years ago.

Holy Toledo!!!! THAT'S ALOT OF SNOW.  Wow what a winter it has been for snow fall. The roads were clear enough for a run this late afternoon, so I did my little GU Corner 5 miler which is an out and back with a couple of 400m or so hills. My legs felt good and strong, no leg issues and I actually felt like pushing alittle bit. todays run I feel good about and we are coming back nicely from the injury. I finshed my workout today with 30 min. of upper body weight training and polished off with 200 cruches. My total time for the run was 50:28. My times are begining to come down the more I run. Today felt like a good rythum. The weather is going to be nice for a few days so lets enjoy some good runs. See ya tomorrow.

A very cold morn. feels like the land of the frozen chosen. I will be glad for the warmer spring temps that hopefully will be coming soon. The run this mron was great felt good and strong in both legs. My leg is always a little sore after but I spend some time in strecthing and ice, yes ice is my best friend at my age. It has been another pretty good week of training. I would like to do more 5 miler's next week, we will just have to see how we feel. Ended todays workout with the 200 crunches. See ya next week.
