Five miles in the dark. Interesting feeling the temperature actually drop as I ran. Legs feeling pretty good. I put my Garmin in a safe place after the 50 mile race. Now I can't find it. Aaargh! (Updated: I just looked through my backpack at work to find a thumb drive and found my Garmin in there. Whew!).

| Two new books out today by a favored author presented a problem. Solved it by taking my Kindle to the gym. 45 minutes lower body weight training. 5 miles running on the treadmill. Quick break to pick up my Muir Farm produce packet. Switched to another gym and did 60 minutes on the stationary bike. |

| I'm starting to focus on correcting my negative thinking that I have no speed and eliminating junk miles. Once I warmed up I kept my pace between 10-11 minutes per mile. Once I can comfortably keep all my miles under 11, I will start doing some speedwork anf gradually increase my pace. I would like to be doing 10 mm on my daily runs before the Ogden Half next Spring. |

| Really pathetic this morning. I was very ambitious when I set out about keeping my pace below 11 mm, but soon shut off my Garmin in frustration. Absolutely no energy at all. Needed a pb, so stopped at the gym and did 1.5 miles on the treadmill. I was pouring sweat at 4-4.5 mph and couldn't figure it out. It felt like when my anemia is out of control. Running home I was pondering if I was sick or anemic or what. Mentally I was thinking, "My iron levels were plenty high on Saturday afternoon when I donated blood..." Then it clicked, I donated blood on Saturday afternoon, so probably am anemic right now. I'll give myself a few more days to recover before worrying about pace again.
PM - ran 1.5 miles on the treadmill as a warmup. My trainer kicked my legs with lots of balance training and a solid lower body workout. |

| Still not a lot of energy. 45 minute upper body and core workout followed by 4 miles on the treadmill. My feet have been really susceptible to blisters since the 50 mile race. They are usually just fluid filled and not painful. I had three on the toes of my left foot last night. Kind of weird.

| The worst of the lack of endurance lost its hold today. Did 9.25 milws on the Pipeline Trail with Leslie for three of it. Beautiful run in snow, ice, mud and slush. Taking a bath to warm up - I was washing my feet and the toenail that had a blister under it just up and fell off. |

| 1 mile with the dog, then off to the gym. Was going to get my running in before meeting with my trainer, but he had an early opening and pushed me into it. Quick warmup of .5 miles. My trainer really kicked my butt on core and upper body and I absolutely had no energy left after the session. Will make up miles another day. |
