It was stupid cold this morning. It was 15 which doesn't sound so bad, right? Well the WIND made it easily -2 according to accuweather this morning at 6 am. I can attest that It felt like shit to run outside this morning. Times were pretty slow since my body was working extra hard to keep me blood flowing to my muscles. This is normal in these conditions but feeling a little nauseous breathing hard cold air sucks a$$

My knee is bothering me...a little bit of runner's knee. I'm guessing as a result of very fast down hill portions on my runs and the extra plyos I've been doing...it's also possible the extreme cold workout yesterday when my legs never warmed up could be to blame. I've got to watch this closly and make sure I don't over do it. If I take measures now I think I'll be ok. probably taking tomorrow off.

| | took the day off but went to the gym for some lifting, stretching, and foam rolling. The eliptical with the heavy uphill resistance made my knee feel a lot better. That and the leg press with very heavy weight. Getting my quads stronger makes it feel better. I am going to start to incorporate a little mor lifting/exercises for my legs than I used to as an injury prevention measure.

| | up early at 5:30 this morning for this one. Met Greg and Kenny to get our long run in before work and before the epic blizzard of 2016. My legs were heavy due to all of the lifting I've been doing to make my knee feel better. It was also 20 degrees and ice froze in my beard. Times were a little slower than usual but we didn't care given the conditions
splits for the fast segments: (5:45, 5:39, 5:41, 5:47) (5:30, 5:37, 5:34) (5:39, 5:34) (5:25)

| | There's a blizzard outside. It's bad. I crawled over the windy drifts to may friend's place and ran on the dreadmill for 11 miles. My knee warmed up and was fine at a 2 incline. I then did my standard core routine.
