| No run. Lazy. Layed out a plan to get my nutrition back on track. Time to attack the Bam Weight Handicap goal.
Strength stuff later. A bit more consistent with running this week. 30-40 miles as the body allows. I like to be around my weekly average by the first of the year (~65 miles). Time will tell. Right now I very much does not want to get out of bed.
Pre-dinner - North side - 6.5 miles, averaged 8:19. Decided instead of complaining about being fat and out of shape I should probably suck it up and run. Trace amounts of snow. Slippery in places, but not bad.

| South side - 5 miles, averaged 8:28. Run sucked, but I have a bad attitude. I guess I should be thankful I can run again. Might start going back to the gym, but if I am going to walk two mile in the cold, I might as well run in it.
Ho, hum. Onward and upward.

| Newtone - 7.25 miles in 70 minutes. Couldn't go much faster because my heart rate was up (120 before I even got on the mill). Wore my heartrate monitor. Apparently I was running about 180BPM for 70 minutes, which just doesn't make sense. I guess I will use it more of a fitness guage (where I am still ~3 weeks from any workouts). Did about 7 minutes at 4 % incline.
2 mile total walk commute.

| Newtone - 8.1 miles in 70:15. Did 15 x 1 minute on/off descending paces for the first 10, back up and then down for the last 5. It will serve as a bench mark for now.
2 mile walk communute to the gym.
Converted my Newton Trainer 4s to screw shoes. I went with stainless because water and salt will probably eat away at the regular zinc plated ones after a while. I tested them out and tried a short uphill in my ice-covered alleyway, toeing in as much as possible. They work remarkably well. I was having so much fun I ALMOST didn't notice the 3 degree temps.

| Newtone - 7.9 miles in 70 minutes. Did some strides starting around 10.5 down to just under 12. Starting to get some turnover back.

| Newtone - 7.7 in 70 minutes. Did some strides. Got the legs in touch with some sub-5:00 stuff for the first time in 6 weeks.
Usual 2-mile commute walking, except today it was more like snow-shoeing. Not a ton of snow, but it is very wet and heavy.
Waiting for my scale to tell me I am thin and pretty.
