I woke up this morning with a queasy stomach.  It didn't go away during the run, so I shortened my workout a bit.  I went to Sugarhouse Park this morning to get in a little bit of rolling hills.  I warmed up with a big outer lap, which was a little tricky to navigate in the dark. Then, I ran 10 x 1 minute on/off.  I had planned on 15-20, but wasn't feeling so well.  My legs felt great, though.  I cooled down with another outer lap. 

I liked having a mid-week run with a little turnover.  The workout is easy enough that it doesn't kill you, but still gives you a little speed. 

Teren gave me a new i-pod for Valentine's Day, so I had fun trying it out this morning.

nice workout. i like doing these speed play workouts as well -- not too taxing, but still gets the legs moving. with the SHP hills added in, that's a solid morning.

cool v-day gift!
