Marathon Training DAY 1

800 warm up.  4x800 @10-K - 45 to 50 seconds.    800 cool down.

This work out was so insane with running on 3 inches of snow and bringing 8 young children and 1 teenager with us!  

I didn't track my shoe miles because I ran in SNOW BOOTs!

GOAL - 5 mile tempo 7:30 pace

ACTUAL - 1 mile slow, 3 miles a little faster, 1 mile medium pace.  Overall time 47 minutes.  Pace average 9+ (don't feel like figuring it out exactly right now).  

 Anyway, I can only improve from here.  It was fun running with Mark.

Sleep- was NOT continuous. Kate woke up 3 times last night!

Franklin loop 2x with wool socks and SNOW GoGGLES!  This may change my winter running forever!  Temp 8 degrees with windchill and 2-3 inches of snow.  The up hill was more slippery than down.  My chin froze.

At least today Puxatony Phil predicted an early spring! Saw a HawK eating a dead squirrel on top of a blanket of snow.  He gave us the "Hawk Eye" then flew above our heads continuing to eye us until we ran past.  A about 2 miles later on our return, this same hawk saw us coming, picked up the squirrel with his TALONS gave us the look AS IF we wanted some of his pickings and flew away.  It was actually pretty cool to have an up close encounter with a hawk.
