AM: 5 miles + standard core routine + 2x5 burpees + light deadlifts

PM: 5 miles

starting my strenthening/conditioning training. Basically I'm going to be working on making my body strong which means core work, useful lifting, and things like drills, strides, and light plyometrics.  At the same time I will be increasing my miles until I hit about 80 a week or so and hold it there.  In addition, you'll start to see more 200s and strides in the routine, focusing on more quality and speed.

AM: 5 miles + lifting/core circuit, stretch, foam rolling

PM: 5 miles + .5 straights and curves 

It's certainly colder and windier, needed a hat and gloves. I weighed myself and it looks like I gained 4-5 lbs from the last time I weighed myself a month ago, which is pretty normal considering the taper and off season gluttony.

AM: 8 easy + standard core routine

I decided 35 degrees was warm enough for shorts, but it's actually the temp where a pair of tights would be more appropriate. Chaffing sucks when it's cold. I'm keeping a close track of the temps each day to reign in how to appropirately dress for the weather.
