| | First goal on my way back completed. I made it an hour running at an easy pace this morning (about 8 min pace)! No problems just need to get my achilles complex stronger and more flexible. Looking forward to spring.

| | AM: 1 hr. pool run
PM: ran three miles on the treadmill. Wasn't going to run but everything felt fine and I didn't want to do the bike. Picked it up toward the end. Even with a warm-up mile I ran it in about 23:30. Standard Core routine and PT.

| | AM: none
PM: 4 mile treadmill, pick up toward the end. Felt just fine. Standard core routine, a good stretch, some PT
I was very tired this morning for some reason. Probably the hour run the other day. The impact forces and muscle movement of running cannot be replicated by any other activity, no matter how much pool running and stationary/eliptical you do. I'm experiencing this first hand. For instance, I ramped the treadmill up to a pace that felt really fast but I was hardly breathing...my legs need to catch up to me lungs/heart. Basically I need to run more (leg permitting). Interestingly enough the more I push the better it feels.

| | AM: drug my ass out of bed this morning at 5:15 as usual when going to the pool. It was very cold (10 degrees) and it had snowed .5-1 inch. I walked all the way there only to see that the pool was closed due to snow and cold. Ridiculous. I was pissed. This would never have happened back home in Ohio...then again we'd have to drive 30 miles for the nearest public indoor pool. Anyway I didn't pool run.
PM: lunch break was a work break so I went to the gym, ran a quick three miles and did some ab, PT, and upper body lifts.

| | AM: Nothing. Tired. gonna run this afternoon
PM: 6 miles easy at lunch. Some ankle PT
what a beautiful day! mid 40s and all that crappy snow is melting. I can actually smell the air and having my face exposed doesn't sting. My ankle feels good and I have no doubt that I'll be able to make it 1 hr. 10 min. tomorrow.
