Easy run to start the week after I got out of class.  School is back in session which is a nice change.

Another easy three miler.  Still no pain at all.  Feeling better and better every day.  Hopefully the trend continues.

Another post-injury distance PR.  Still no pain.  I'm beginning to hope I'm out of the woods.  We'll see how it feels tomorrow.  Canyon road loop on a nice crisp January afternoon.  My pace has been getting a little faster too, not that I'm trying to push things, but I think the natural flow is coming back a little bit, although it will be awhile before I feel like I'm anywhere near race shape.

Didn't plan very well today, so I didn't have time for a run.  No worry though.  I'm over on my miles for the week anyway.

LRT to Third Dam with Cody.  It was good to get back out with him.  Trail was perfect.  Snowy, but smooth and soft.  Felt really good today.  Still no pain. 

Spent the rest of the morning glued to the computer following the various live feeds of the Trials Marathon.  Disappointingly, the live splits crapped out at mile 8 for some unknown reason (probably couldn't handle sub 2:10 pace), and the live blogs only talked about the leaders so I have no idea how Paul did.  Hope he did well.
