Jenny and I had planned on meeting at the Y, but she texted that she wasn't feeling well and I was really glad I hadn't looked at my phone until I was already there.   6 progressive miles on the treadmill, starting at 6.4 and moving up to 7.8 and then a 1 mile cool down.

Avg Pace 8:30

I have wanted to add strength training into my routine for a very long time.  Today I bit the bullet.   Squats, lunges, arms and core.  I have no idea what I really need to be doing, ideas?

So, so sore!  My right hamstring is causing some issues from MCM and yesterday didn't help.   Yoga tonight and feeling much better.

I met Ashley, Tim and Wendy early this morning.   It was by far the coldest morning yet - 45 degrees.  Not much to all those in Utah or northern places, but cold for us.   We ran the usual route from Tom Thumb, through the Colonial, Woodshed and Trinity Park.   The entire run felt easy and right on target.   Once I stopped though, all the soreness came right back.

In KY for work and it took quite a bit of talk to get myself out of bed and on the treadmill.   I ran the first mile with an incline of 1.5 and at 6.4/6.6 and thought I was going to die.  Bumped down the incline to 1.0 and 6.8/7.0 for mile 2 and it wasn't any easier..  I thought about going outside if it was in the high 40's but no, 33 degrees.   I decided to tough it out and get 3 miles and bumping the incline to 0.  Ended up feeling better and running 7 miles with 1.5 below MP.   Glad that is over.....
