| It was snowing during my run this morning. An inch of dry powder on top of hard packed snow and ice makes for tough footing. I put the screws back into the soles of one pair of my shoes for the winter. It helped but the new snow was just deep enough to keep me from getting a good bite in most places. I kept a real easy pace this morning. I have found it best to be real careful not to overdo it to much on slick roads at the begging of winter before I'm used to it. It seems to be hard on hamstrings. 9:29 AP. | | Add Comment |

| 7 mile run. Broken record this week with the 7s. Poor footing for about half of this run so I just took it easy. A light snow falling made it kind of nice. 9:16 AP. | | Add Comment |

| Nice 10 mile run this morning in the snow. There was about an inch of new snow on the ground and there were lots of large flakes still coming down. I love running in the snow as long as there isn't a bad wind blowing. I ran up to the reservoir which I haven't done since we got all the snow because the snow has been so deep. There have been some 4 wheel drives make it through in past days so I was able to run in their frozen tire ruts that were only covered buy this mornings fresh snow. It was a very quiet peaceful run. I enjoyed it so much I wished I was going 20 miles. Some areas that were drifted deeper or uphills where they had done a lot of spinning and digging to get through were a little slow going and I was over 10 min pace for a few stretches but overall pace was 8:58. There was about 2 inches of new snow by the time I was done. This is the first time I've hit double digits since TOU in September. | | Add Comment |

| Went out in the thick fog and 21 deg this morning. After some very slow runs the past couple of weeks, I decided to stick to my 2 mile stretch of pavement and pick up the pace a bit. I averaged 7:39 pace for the first 4 miles starting at 7:50 pace and working down to 7:27 on the 4th mile. The last 4 were 7:08, 7:05, 6:48, 6:37. It felt good. | | Add Comment |

| I wanted to get out and do some tempo miles this morning but the roads were snow covered. I was able to get out in the pm and the snow was gone from the paved road. I did 2x4 miles. I started out with 2 miles at around 7:45 pace then 7:11 and 7:04 for the next 2. After a 5 min break, I ran the next 4 in 6:48, 6:49, 6:37, 6:19. Average pace for all 8 was 7:02. | | Add Comment |

| We had a lot of snow coming down this morning when I ran and a lot on the ground. The footing wasn't great so I just took it nice and easy. It was a very slow and enjoyable 11 miles. | | Add Comment |

| There was no snow on the pavement today so I ran my 4 mile paved route twice to make 8 miles. I started out with a 7:46 and 7:18 first 2 miles then averaged 6:46 for the next 6 miles. I took a 4 min break at the 4 mile [1/2 way] point of the run. It was about 29 deg with a bit of wind. I wanted to get it done before the big storm we are supposed to be getting tonight and tomorrow. Felt good about the run. 6:58 overall ave for 8 mi. | | Add Comment |

| There was a lot of new snow falling this morning so I was running in a lot of fresh snow. I tried to stick to the tracks left from cars and it helped a little with the footing. When I turned up the road to the reservoir where no vehicles had driven and I was running in about 8 inches of new snow. It was fun but after 1 1/2 miles of that I decided it was to much work for what was supposed to be a recovery run even though I was running as slow as 11:30 pace on some of the uphill parts. I turned around and finished the run on the roads where the footing was still poor and running was slow but much easier than the 3 miles I did on fresh snow. It would have been fun to go a lot farther in the fresh snow If it had been a day I was looking for a harder workout. 8 miles total at 9:50 ave pace. | | Add Comment |
