A nice 6 today in 42:43, so7:07 min/mi. pace which felt pretty easy. Shins have been bothering me lately, so i spent some extra time on injury prevention and stretching today. Core routine is still at 30 second intervals. Little cold and windy on the way back but should end up being a nice day.

Repeats today. 6x800 at 2:40-2:50, with the first two right down at 2:40. Rest was 2 min. Felt really good, except for my shins which are still somewhat bothersome. Beautiful weather today though, 57 degrees! I wore shorts and a t-shirt!

Felt really good today on my 6.5 mile run. Sposed to be really easy pace, but the weather was just so nice (50 and no wind) that i was through my first 3 miles way too fast, had to coax myself to slow down. All in all a great day and shins even felt a lil better.

Today was supposed to be mile repeats, but when i woke up, the freezing drizzle we were supposed to get was actually freezing downpour! A nice think coating of ice covered everything, so I went to the indoor track here on campus and changed up my workout a little. Did one 1000 at 3:30, then 10x400 at 1:18-1:22, then closed with a 600 in 2:00. Overall, I was tired and my legs were dead by the end of the workout, but thats the goal with fast speed days, and i felt accomplished. I had turned a crappy day into a good one!

Easy 3.5 today. Went inside on the indoor track again cuz windchill was -10 and very windy (from the north). Went a little faster than i expected for an easy/rest day (24:45, lil over 7 min/mile pace) but when you feel good, you feel good!

"Long run" of 9 miles today. Felt decent through about 6-7 miles, then the hills and cold north wind in my face took its toll and legs started to feel heavy. Ended at 7:37 min/miles, so a nice pace for a longer run. Overall, caps off a good week and I am needing the day off tomorrow to let the legs recover!
