I was going to take a day off. Not sore or tight, which is a good sign. Thought it was probably time for a day off after 27 on (longest consecutive stretch by 5 days), but the sun was coming through the window, calling me. Too many clouds lately. Golf course to Heritage trail out and back - 6.8 miles, averaged 7:55 Should have stayed in. Had some clowns harassing me, but I kept going, biting my tongue. As much as a stewed about it I had a pleasant run somehow. Wore a pair of A5s I picked up pretty cheap. What a sweetie pie of shoe I think if I can drop some weight I may run my marathon in them. Lighter than my Newton flats (by a mere .2), but a bit more cushion and protection in the heel for when form starts to sag.

AM: North side - 7.75 miles, averaged 8:16 PM: 18th street to 9th back to 18th back and home via Jefferson High - 10 miles, averaged 6:58 I was trying to do a steady state run of 6-8 miles, maybe 10, but I got a bit fast because I have been running at marathon pace and LT or faster and don't have a good sense of the 6:45-6:30 range currently. Ended up being within McMillan range still I guess. First mile 7:27, then 5.25 tempo in 34:38: 6:42, 6:29, 6:31, 6:33, 6:44, 1:38 (6:28 pace), averaged 6:35.75. Then ran home at a decent pace (7:15-7:30ish) with .12 toward the end at 5:30. |

| Vinton Woods - 10 miles, averaged 7:55 Skipped the morning run for some sleep and a chance to miss the freezing rain/rain/wind. What a mess. I still got to run in the rain, wind, and just above freezing temps though this afternoon. Kind of just slogged through.

| PM: 9th street and Heritage Trail - 6.5 miles, average 8:31 + 6 x 100m stridesĀ Legs were definitely not loose during those strides. Guess that's why we do them. Early in the run a car swerved across 2 lanes and made a right-hand turn (one-way road, I'm going to same direction), almost hitting me. I can only guess they were trying to come close to me to be a jerk because I could see them move with my peripheral vision. I swiped at the car, but thought better of it (memories of redneck cab drivers).
PM: Jefferson High - 7 miles, averaged 8:06

AM: Ks on the Heritage Trail/golf course. 3.25 miles up and down. 10 x 1k w/ 1:30 recovery jogs. I usually leave the golf course after a LT workout with peacock feathers sprouting from my split shorts. Today I had donkey ears like King Midas sprouting out from under my tuke. This workout was very hard. I tried to bail after about repeats 5 or 6, but kept going. I didn't think it would be that much different than the other (I THOUGHT) comparable LT workouts I have been doing. Managed the last two repeats with a decent final effort. The last 2-3 were definitely end of race effort. Once I got moving on my cool down I felt better about the workout. 14.1 miles total. Averaged 3:52 or slightly under 6:15 pace for the repeats. PM: North side - 4.2+ shake out, averaged 8:31
