It's just that simple

Federal Way bike path - 41:24

Inservice day today, so I was able to have an hour for lunch and run. Man this would be a nice perk of a non-education related job. I would probably run every day at lunch if I had the chance. Oh well, you can't put a price tag on lunch duty and school lunch.

I did a progression run in pretty windy weather. Miles were 7:35, 7:10, 6:58, 6:12 and 6:07. I finished the last mile as a cool down with a few quick accelerations. Felt fatigued due to several hours of work in Garden Valley yesterday.

Treadmill - 30:15

Basic easy run on the treadmill at home. Ran at 9:30 p.m. and felt ok.

20 minutes of weights, core & stretching post run.

Treadmill - 30:05

Another easy run on the treadmill at home, way too late at night (10 p.m.). Need to get out of this late night habit.

A.M. - Run to work - 24:25

Felt pretty good.

P.M. - Run home+ - 48:41

Ran home and did 4 x 800 on the way, with 3 minute recoveries. When I got home, I ran a neighborhood loop with Emily and Nica in the stroller. First attempt at 5k pace today. Felt rusty.

Run to work - 24:05

Pretty quick by my morning standards (about 7:45/mile pace).

Emily picked me up so I didn't run home, then I didn't get out again.

Greenbelt - 1:05

Got a late start due to Emily working today until about 5 p.m. Warmed up a couple of miles, and as I sped up a bit the snow started to fall. I gutted it out and did 5 miles at MP (6:29/mile) and then 2 more wet cool-down miles. This run took way more out of me than I expected.
