afternoon - 13 Hot Nails/River Run.  The team is off their break, so I joined them for an easy three into Washington and then extended out on the River Run.  Ran in some new Asics Neo that were given to me.  the sizing is off a little and that makes them even more bulky.  But as far as a shoe to get some good mileage in, they are not bad.  Probably nothing I would buy, however; but now-a-days I would only by light quick shoes anyway.  Ended with Molly's Mile.  (Neo 13)

afternoon - 13 AC/River Run.  Nothing exceptional about this run.  Just getting things done.  Ended with Molly's Mile like usual.  (Kinvara 524.15)

AM - 10 Clyde's.  Some loop of Clyde's.  As usual, pretty chilly out this morning.  Clyde got Logan rolling toward the end and we had a good little push, but it was better for them than me.  My hips were acting up a little and I wasn't in the mood to try and push through it too much.  (Hyper Speed 141)

afternoon - 11 GS/Shinob Kibe.  Green Springs with the team, then I extended down to Shinob Kibe.  The run up was pretty good and the run down was energizing!  I will try and throw this hill in once every couple weeks to work on both the tough climb and downhill running.  Molly's Mile.  Wore a new pair of New Balance 110's that Steven lent me to take for a test drive.  (NB 110 -11)

morning - 10.5 Sand Hill.  Went up into the desert and had a decent run on the Sand Hill from the Grapevine side.  Then brought it home by way of the dirt parkway - I would love it if it never got paved or developed up there (the dirt parkway area), but I am sure it is only a matter of a year or two.  Like the NB 110's.  They have a little different feel on the forefoot, but I remember the 101's took my foot a few runs to get used to as well.  And these actually don't give the foot the pounding that the 101's do when you are on the road working up to the trail (a little softer).  (NB 110 -10.5)

afternoon - 11 Mustang Pass.  One of my favorite trails.  But I am getting a little tired, so I couldn't enjoy it quite as much.  Still fun to hit, especially since I haven't in a while.  (NB 101 346.25)

morning - 15 Icehouse.  One of those runs that was just junk.  I was excited to hit Icehouse since it has been a while since I've been up the trail, but I could tell right away that I was tired.  Then add to that not eating before going out and not being hydrated enough in the last couple days led to a long and hideous death march.  I get those every once in a while, but it is always a bummer when I do.  At least I didn't eat it on the trail - which is something I often do on this one, but I was close a couple times.  Now... try and rest up the rest of the day and get feeling better for a more productive run tomorrow.  (NB 110 -15)

AM - 16.5 Prospector.  To say I had to drag myself out of bed this morning was an understatement.  But I got up and got the run in early so we could do our traditional Christmas Eve breakfast.  Run started off much better than yesterday's, but by the end I was pretty spent again.  Always nice to run on Prospector though.  (NB 110 -16.5)

Week was good for mileage and a good test of running on tired legs.  Also a good test week of the NB 110's.  Put 50+ miles on them this week and am sure I will get myself a pair.

Goals for next week:  Coming week will be a recovery week after two straight 100's.  And since I have a 30 miler on the Zion course on Saturday, I guess I will just get 10's in every other day of the week.  Hopefully that zings the legs a little.
