8 miles easy.  I ended up running in the 6:40s most of the way even though I was dead tired.  That 14 on Saturday really took it out of me.  The wind and the effort were rough.

2 mile WU

8 x 2:00 min. @ 5K-3K pace with 1:30 min. jogs.

1 mile CD

Cold and quiet.  Tired but able with all of my systems on go.  Good place to be.  The cumulative fatigue is there but no niggles or sore tendons or joints. Ran on the track back home.

10 easy on Christmas morning.  Dead quiet outside. 27 degrees but the wind wasn't too bad. Heard a rooster croak.

1.5 miles barefoot on my parents' treadmill.

10.5 miles on the treadmill at the YMCA with my dad back home.  There is a winter storm/blizzard outside and the wind is ridiculous. I'm glad I at least got the treadmill miles in and I even maintained a quick 6:30 pace for 3 miles and 6:00 for 2 miles in there. Looking forward to going back to the slightly warmer DC weather where that slightly warmer temperatures mean rain instead of snow.

Still back home and a blizzard warning was in full effect.  The wind sucked and there was no footing.  Pretty much leaped and dodged and got wet attempting to run.  I went back home and shoveled snow.  A lot of snow.  Good core workout and some cross training.

felt hungover from Christmas and the bar yesterday and didn't get a run in before my flight.  Turns out the flight was delayed many times and I didn't get home until late.  No running today I guess.

15 miles starting easy and picking it up from there.  On the way back there was this massive and long hill that I always run on Harvard street by the National Zoo.  It hurt like a bitch today as I was hitting the wall at the same time.  Here were my splits:

7:33, 7:02, 6:45, 6:48, 6:42, 6:43, 6:40, 6:50, 6:39, 6:31, 6:37, 6:30, 6:35, 6:48, 7:27
