Warm-up on the treadmill. Weights/strength/core workout. Lots of leg stuff.

Left achilles is acting up again. Don't know why. I ran 18 yesterday with no indicator of any problem. Woke up this morning and it was sore. Got worse throughout the day.

Six miles on the treadmill at 8.5 mph. Mostly just testing the sore achilles so I didn't want to push it. Felt pretty good.

am: Out the door at 4:45 this morning. 14 degrees. Dark also. Just me and the guy delivering papers. 9 miles in 1:10 around Sugarhouse Park. 

pm: Farting around at the gym with little purpose. 2.25 on the treadmill with some fast striders, 1 mile on the eliptical, and about 15 minutes of hard riding on a spin cycle.

I guess I got done what I wanted to get done tonight, but I had hoped it would feel a little easier.

6 x 1/2 mile on the treadmill in 2:45 (10.9 mph). Half mile recovery at 7.5 mph between each. Warm-up and cool-down.

I wanted the half mile repeats to be hard but manageable. Instead, I was really straining.
