What a great way to start a new year. I got to sleep in till after 6:00 am and then met Keith B. at Starkey Park. We went out on the trails and just kept running. It was a beautiful day, perfect temp, and great company. I've forgotten how much I enjoyed running off road. What a pleasure. So much to see. So much harder in some ways and so much easier in others.
Happy New Year.

Very unusual for me to run on a Sunday. This is usually a rest day for me but today I finished with a run. I met Raj and we went on a run through Chestnut park. Saw lots of deer tonight and enjoyed great views of Lake Tarpon. I enjoyed hearing about his new life as a father and husband of almost 2 years. The highs & lows. Mostly highs and mostly blessings. He's off to a good start and has a great foundation on which to build. It was a good night to run.
Temp was actually warm enough to go shirtless. It's good to live in Florida!!!

Met with Mark this morning. He's still sick from some upper respiratory thing he caught last week. We just took it slow this morning and talked of the coming year. There's a lot to do in 2011. Looking forward to it.
Today we went North on East Lake up to the hilly neighborhood. We only did two laps today but that was enough. Today marked my 8th day in a row running. I'm going to try to hit 60 this week and see how I feel. I may try to sharpen up and run a fast half in February OR if I feel good enough I may just run the Tallahassee full and try to stick another 3:30 or better. We'll see. No hurry.

Got up early but began doing work. Got out the door late and realized I had just cost myself 30 minutes of run time. I will try to get out again tonight and bang out 5 or 6 miles. |

| Ran Clearwater Bridges with Raj, Mark, and a new guy Mike (2:53 marathon). Started out very comfortably finished very strong. Highlights were seeing Clw. Bay from Sand Key bridge at around 6:30 am. What a beautiful sight. Ran into a group of runners and a guy I almost didn't recognize. His name is Patrick Sweeny and he's the guy I did most of my long runs with for my first marathon back in 2000. Wow how time flies. Mark left us at 9.?? and went on to finish 20. I did a pick up the last 3 miles to finish: Time: 6:09 am Total Time: 1:56:18 (8:19 avg) Temp: 55 º Humidity: 80%

| Easy run to the micro hills with 10x100m strides on the way back. Rained most of the way back but we were already warmed up so it felt kind of nice. Temp:

| Ran with Raj from the LB YMCA. The plan was 2 mile warm up, 4 miles @ 6:55. I couldn't read the Garmin consistantly enough so our splits were way too fast and we pulled up at two miles and took a breather. We then did a couple hundred yards recovery job and back to the remaining 2 miles.Too hard a pace for where I am conditioning wise. Had we run the planned time we would have been fine.
Splits were: - 6:39
- 6:42
- 7:00
- 6:10

| Ran with Katie & Matt. Ran the beach bridges loop. Once again it was absolutely stunning scenery. The weather was in the mid 50's. We were supposed to keep our pace above 8 something. We didn't. The last four miles felt incredible. Even the cool down was great. - 11 - 8:05
