I ran 5 miles today on soft snow with very poor footing. 9:10 pace was about all I could manage. Everything is feeling good from the race and I'm sure I would have felt fine running the last 2 days but since I don't have any races in the near future I just decided to take a bit of a break. I'll probably keep things pretty easy the next few weeks.

Played basketball for an hour.

Ran another 5 miles today. The temp had dropped a lot and the snow and ice on the road had frozen up solid. Much better footing than yesterday. I wore my screw shoes both days but they didn't help much yesterday. Today they worked great. I still just kept it easy at 8:48 pace.

The roads today were about 1/2 snow and ice and 1/2 clear. Just went for another easy 5 1/2 at 8:44 pace.

Just kept it real easy again today. 5 miles at 8:54 AP. More pavement was exposed today. Only about 1/4 of run was on ice and snow.
