Training

Ran a progressive 4 on the TM in the morning.  1.5 at 7:30, 1.5 at 7:13, and 1 at 6:58.

5 miles on the greenbelt at noon.    The temperature was about 31 with moderate breezes.  Ran at a decent pace, but I am still waiting for my watch to rise from the snow in our backyard (Coco the dog will probably spot it first and eat it), so my time is unknown. 

TM in the morning.   5 miles at 7:30 and 1 at 7:13.

Ran a cool 5.1 around the greenbelt at noon with Jeff.  Weather was around 30 and breezy again, but the path is nearly clear.  Times were good (for me!) except the last mile I backed off for a side ache.

Outside run in the evening.  Clear and cool.  Made it back just as the sun set

TM in the morning for 3.1.

Greenbelt loop at noon for a pleasant run..  Clear and cold (11 F) again.  It's Hard to believe this is March.

I was short on time this morning, but managed 3.5 on the treadmill.  average time was 7:15.  I am planning a long run of about 15 for Saturday, so will not run at noon.  It may be snowing tomorrow, but unless it's terrible out I am going!.

Took a nice long progressive outside run with jtshad today.  The temperature was in the high 20's with little wind and a light cloud cover.  We planned to run at around 8:30 for 5 miles, then up to 8:15 for 5 and the last 5 at an 8 minute pace.  Jt was very good about letting me set the pace and we were a little faster for the entire run, finishing with an average speed of just under 8 minute miles.  This is my longest run so far and the first time for drinking water and eating GU.  That really seemed to help as I felt pretty decent at the end.  However, as I write this my legs are feeling the distance a bit.  Overall an excellent run.   Thanks  Jeff!
