AM - 4 Twix.  Abs. Twix has been acting weird since we got back from Cali, so I wasn't sure how she'd run this morning.  She did well, however, and it was a good and chilly run.  All the leaves have finally fallen with the cold and winds last night.  She didn't want to step in them and would jump over all of them.  (Peg blue 563.25)

afternoon - 10.75 Sullivan River.  Ran home from school via the Trail to Nowhere and linked up to the River Trail, past Sullivan and home.  This is a long run for me nowdays.  The pace was solid throughout.  Nothing over 7:00 and averaged 6:35.  Cadence was 169.  Goal will be to hit 170 on a 10+ miler and bring the shorter runs above 170.  (Boston 237.25)

AM - abs and walk with Twix.

afternoon - 6 Parkway.  Ran home via the Parkway.  Prety tired, so I kept it at 6.  Have kind of developed a plan for myself and my running.  Pretty much will be less mileage on days like this (usually singles) and try and hit a couple decent workouts (longer run, tempo, intervals) per week.  Even not feeling zippy, ave was just under 7:00 and STP was at 168.  The good sign of that is that my running is transitioning - if on a tired, worn down day I can still be near my 170 goal, I actually am making that my normal strider rate, not just something I can only do when feeling quick.  (Peg grey 525.5)

AM - 4 Twix. Abs and run with the dog.  A little better than yesterday.  (Pace blue 187)

afternoon - 7.75 Track/home.  Warmed up on DI and then planned on doing some mile reps and running home.  The repeats were tougher than I imagined.  Not a pain tough ('cause I wasn't going fast enough), but more of a mental toughness that I don't have.  It was hard to try and run fast on a track lap after lap and keep in it mentally.  I only did two at 5:46 and then :39 with 3 minute recovery.  Next time I'll build on it.  Run home was good and the pace was solid.  (Peg green 218.5)

AM - abs and walk with both dogs. 

afternoon - 6 PV.  Ran grass loops on the back field while the jav throwers did their thing.  Right hammy was a bit more painful than the last couple weeks, probably from yesterday.  (Cumulus 372)

AM - 4 Twix.  Abs and then run with Twix.  Hammy felt no worse for the wear this morning.  (Pace blue 191)

afternoon - 8.25 Sullivan. Ran home from school via the Sullivan loop. For how tired I feel, and how blah the runs feel lately, the paces have beennslick.  6:35 today. (Boston 246)

morning - 10 Sand Hill in reverse. Got out a bit later this morning and enjoyed a nice run in the desert. Longest run for Twix in quite some time.  She felt it at the end and we finished the last two around 6:20. Was able to run sans a shirt. Got back in time to watch the boys race at Foot Locker (will go watch the girls replay now). I’ll say this - although here will always be enough good people to make FL a great race, NXN is where the true champs go now (yes, I know Claudia is amazing, but the best are at Nike, especially on the boys side). (Sense 344.75)

Good first week without the team. Sometimes it’s hard to run w/o them. They inspire me. 

Goals for next week: keep on trying to push my limits. Keep working on cadence.
