adventures in plodding...

Easy fiver.  45 minutes seems to be the point at which my attention span starts to trail off on the treadmill.  I need to come up with some new mental gimmicks.

Commercial fartlek on the treadmill (~10k pace surges during the commercials, ended up being 3 x 4 minutes or so).  Nice way to mix it up, but I need to not do this when funny movies are on; hyperventilation tends to be counterproductive to rapid self-propulsion.

Unfortunately I missed a birthday run yesterday. Up late the night before + work + right to party festivities kind of got in the way.  29 is an awkward age anyway....at least next year I can go for the 30 miler!

Steady fiver loop around town after work.  No after school program on fridays, so getting to run outside during the day is always nice.  The Wyoming winds were at their finest today and naturally become headwinds during the uphill part of the loop.  Ate it pretty good toward the end after misjudging the deepness of a snowdrift....in front of a nice audience of co-workers.  I'm awesome like that.  I was disappointed there wasn't more blood though. 

High of SIXTY predicted down in SLC tomorrow.  A track club run may be in order.

Track club run.  Jogged down 27th east from Tanner Park for a spell & back.  Was hoping to go longer, but felt kind of meh energywise. Sore from yesterday's spill too.
