I committed to UVM.  I've got to redeem myself from the 2011 debacle.

Thanks to Sasha for not freaking out after I recorded all 350 of my 3rd and 4th quarter miles in one entry. I had several big miles FRB'ers comment to help me "correct" my error who didn't read the entry (I wouldn't have either, it was wooooordy). I just don't find time to blog my miles or spend a moment writing about my runs like I used to. Also, with the air quality, ice and cold temps-- I can't risk my health or hamstring so I've run a lot of my winter miles on a treadmill (boring).  Sadly, though the dogs still get really-super-dooper excited to see me walk out in running shoes and still freak heck out because they think it's time to run.  My poor dogs.  My poor hamstring.

I still havn't made my UVR training calendar and have no idea what I'm doing. I do know I've got to lose 8 pounds at least before I start with regular 7+ mile runs.  It will be easier on my knees overall to be lighter.

Warmed up before going outside in this intoxicating sunshine.  Did my favorite Vintage Park - - Ronald Park -- River trail loop. A lady walking her enormous unleashed great dane along the trail yelled "Don't worry, he's friendly!" at me while her dog galloped toward me. Even though I knew he was harmless and I believed her, it got my heart racing to be charged by a dog the size of a volkswagen.

I don't think my knees can handle skiing and running on the same day.  My knees got sore yesterday.  Got to lunch with queen Josse.  I miss running-running. But lunch is a close second. I have a few favorite Josse running memoires, but my favorite is Ogden Half Marathon with her and Ericka.  Josse was 5 months pregnant. It was a beautiful day, and we saw a hawks flying over Pineview resevoir while the sun rose.

I did all my sit ups/push ups/squats and ran 3 miles.

I felt amazing, energized, not sore, not tired.

Then came home and ran another 3 miles.

I think I like this configuration and will be using it more frequently as I build up miles
