Rollin' THUNDER

5.01 miles outside. 64 degrees and sunny.

I wanted to try and keep it slow and have a lower heart rate (145-155), for some reason I couldn't convince my body to do what my mind wanted, not that it is too bad to go faster than I wanted but I just wanted to save some energy and stress on my knees for tomorrow.

Short run on the treadmill.

7.13 miles outside, with crystal on her bike. I took it nice and slow for the first 5 miles to save my knees for basketball tonight, then I tried to fiish in under an hour so I had to speed up for the last 2 miles or so.

This was a nice run

2.75 miles on treadmill. I wanted to run on the treadmill so I would do less miles (my knee is a little sore from bball last night). I started out way too fast and quickly died. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I really need to start racking up the miles for the marathon that is coming up.

30 minutes on treadmill. I didnt look at the mileage.

11.03 miles in Plain City. 

It was raining/snowing the entire run. I love running in the snow, so I had lots of fun. I kept at a good pace the whole time and my legs, knees, and spirit all felt good the entire run.

15.06 miles in Plain City. This is my long run for the week. I didnt want to save that for saturday due to the fact that my wife should be having a baby on saturday morning. I did not wear enough clothing for the temperature, but after 4 miles I was warm enough. I didnt feel like I had enough energy for the run, but was able to make it.

My right knee and left foot hurt for most of the run, but they should be fine.

This seemed like a slow run, but it was fun to get off the road and do a trail.

4 miles split into 2 runs. One at about noon and one at about 9 p.m.

At noon I did 1.5 miles in 9.30

at 9 I did 2.5 miles.

4 miles on the treadmill

I sprained my ankle tuesday night playing basketball, so I took wednesday off. Tonight I wanted to test my ankle, but not on any bumps, so I ran on the treadmill (again, fo hating the treadmill I sure seem to use it a lot). My ankle felt fine, so I did 8 miles. * miles is the most I have ever done on a treadmill. Luckily I get distracted by watching Jumanji. I ran for 1.15.03, not long enough to finish jumanji, but there are other things to do in a day than run.

3 miles on treadmill. I still dont want to run outside on uneven ground to help protect my ankle. I also kept miles low today to hopefully save some for a good long run tomorrow.

21.5 miles at about 11:30.

This was an ok run. I ate a gu before I left and then ate 1 at 1 then at 2 hours. I didnt have any water, but stopped at a water fountain for about 25 seconds around mile 18. I was feeling really good until about mile 10. I got to mile 12.2 which was a t in the road. Going left would have been up a canyon, and going right would have been going up a giant hill, so I turned around. Thats when I noticed that I had been running with a tail wind and didnt recognize it. It was now a strong head wind that didnt go away. So the last 9 miles were straight into the wind.
