| | 8 easy. Of course I ended up going much faster without paying attention. First mile was good at 7:50, last mile was a bit fast at 6:50 but it all felt easy. Warm- 50 degrees...which is actually average high for this time of year near DC. However, this winter is a f^&ck*&( mess. Tomorrow it's supposed to snow 6-10 inches. By Tuesday morning, it's forcasted to be 8 degrees...seriously. It's March.

| | snow storm. Ice and snow everywhere. This afternoon it was only 18 with much lower wind chills. Mind you the average high this time of year is 51. Completely ridiculous. Anyway everything was closed: work, pool, gym, track, all of it. I decided to not go and attempt a run. Why bother? I have no pressing races coming up and I might as well not trip on ice and tear something else. In other news it's only supposed to be 8 degrees tomorrow morning so I will go treadmill at the gym.

| | 8 miles on the treadmill. Last 1.5 miles at 6:00 pace. Treadmill set to 1 incline. Standard Ab routine + light deadlift machine and calf/achilles strengthening. So the average lows this time of year are in the 30s. This morning it was 8 degrees and everything was covered in ice and snow. Totally not worth it to even attempt to run outside. Looking forward to normal temperatures next week. We have a few more cold days ahead. | | Add Comment |
| | AM: 1 hr pool run
PM: 6 mile run after work. Nice outside, 37 and sun setting. Standard ab routine + some deadlift machine, leg press, ab bench, calf raise machine and some eccentric drops. Leg is almost 100% felxible and equal in strength to left leg. Still feels a little weird.

| | 9 easy/steady through Rock Creek. Ab routine + row machine + ab bench + calf machine for PT. No dead lifts. Still sore from doing those yesterday. I still can't figure out if I want to train in the morning or the evening but everytime I train in the evening, it is really hard to get up the following morning. I'll figure it out somehow.
