First run of the new year! Yay! 50 minute run. Just trying to build endurance and consistency before I get involved in another play.

Helping Lily with her training a bit. So, starting some baby workouts. I did ten minutes extra on my warm up. We did 15 minutes warm up with 4 x 20 second strides in the last mile. Then, 3 x 2 minute fast/3 minute float. Five minute cooldown. Hitting around 6:20-6:30 pace. Doesn't feel good. I haven't moved hard in a long time.

Shorter recovery run. It was a little slippery this morning. 10 days of consistent running. 80 to go until goal.

Gym day for longest run of the week. Progression run with one minute pick ups thrown in. Nothing too crazy. Didn't feel like running in snow today

Running got miserable. Cold is fine. Wind is not. Did Lily's long run with her. She is building slowly. 40 minutes last week. 42:30 this week. Nasty head wind the last two miles. But, she hung in there well. 5.5 miles.
