Total Distance
20.00

8 miles in the morning.

The wind, rain, and snow were howling this morning so I decided to stay in on the treadmill for my morning run.  I did 8 miles at 6:20/mile overall.  Legs are feeling much better this morning.

Paul Pilkington had me do a power run that the runners do at Weber State.  It is a 2 mile warmup, 8 miles at 5:30/mile, and then a 2 mile cooldown.  The pace is about 10 seconds slower than my marathon pace.  This run felt very good.  I was happy to get it in.

I hope the cold bath helped the other day. I've been trying to get those in once or twice a week after my harder runs. Your training looks good, I'm eager for Striders half.

You are going to fly at Ogden for sure. It's amazing how far you have come since last year. See you at Striders!
