7 easy

Felt good on this run. I just went for it and didn't worry about my pace much. I knew I went out a little fast so I backed it off, but then just ran the rest of the run by feel.

AM - 4 miles - 2 mile warmup, 1 mile at 6:00, 1 mile cooldown. - Ran this across Wasatch because the tracks are all covered in snow still. Felt decent, but was a little bothered by how hard the 6 min mile felt. 

PM - 4 miles on the treadmill - 2 mile warmup, 1 mile at 6:00, 1 mile cooldown. - Because I wanted to get more in this morning but didn't I hopped on the treadmill for round 2. I would have liked to do the 1 mile a little faster but my treadmill maxes at 10mph. Once again I felt pretty burned out by the end of that mile. I think my legs were feeling sore from this morning. Looking forward to an easy day tomorrow.

6 easy on the treadmill at 8:37. was nice to just get the legs loose. watched part of the count of monte cristo. that is a good flick. maybe I will finish it on my next easy run if I hop on the treadmill again.

fun run this morning with Adam. It was good to run with someone again. I have had a lot of solo runs lately. We kept it casual with some faster burts here and there. It is always good to run fast with Adam because he pushes me down under the 6:00 pace. Opted for this workout over a tempo segment. I think it is good for me to mix it up every once in a while so I don't get so bored and burned out.

5 miles - 2 mile warmup and then 2 miles where every .2 miles I sped up the treadmill .2/mph. Got up to 6:40 pace and ran that for a half mile, then did a 1 mile cooldown.

Opened the door to join Adam for a run and was upset to see the snow falling. Decided it was better to hit the treadmill.  

I listened to the podcast yesterday that Adam posted by Rich Roll with him talking to Brian Mackenzie. Interesting stuff in there. I might try and pick up Mackenzie's book. The thought of crossfit endurance does not sit very easy with me yet though.

12 miles - today felt good. glad i woke up and got out when i did. the storm and wind rolled in right after i finished. my left hamstring started to hurt yesterday but it was not impeding today. it took a few miles for it to loosen up and for me to not notice it anymore. I mixed up my route a little bit and it caused for the first half to be almost all a gradual uphill. the climb was not miserable but it was about 375 ft. with a couple of long hauls. I feel really good about my splits though and my AP of 7:48. I just ran off of feel again and didn't look at my watch. I would hear it beep every mile and would resist looking. I am looking forward to the coming week and the speed workouts that I have planned.
