| | The new Manette Hills loop, this time all the way to the Episcopal Church on Callahan and down to Lebo from there, to add some distance. The hills aren't real taxing, but they are consistent so I think it'll help. Legs felt good and rested, although a little tight, after two days off, on a damp, foggy morning. supernova glide -- 214

Foggy, damp morning run out Trenton Avenue to Illahee State Park. It was so foggy that once I got to the park that I just turned off the headlamp, feeling my way through the misty pre-dawn was better than being blinded by the light on fog. But most of the run was on unoccupied roads, so the darkness was fine. Went all way down to the beach on the road, then climbed out on the trail, which has more steps than I thought it would have. Good pace on the roads part, especially the downhills. Body felt great, though I'm a little tired now to start the day. 59:11 supernova glide -- 222

| | Perfect morning to run: dry, mild, I even started a little later and got to see some light at the finish. No one outside except the garbage man, I ditched the headlamp after getting past Jacobson. But just a shorter, mid-week restful run. I wasn't beat up, but just a little tired from yesterday so I took it easy. Nice pace, 7:30s or so. 37:55 supernova glide -- 227

Beach Drive with Henry and Mike, pushed it up to 12 today. Big crowd of Slugs at Annapolis at 6:30 a.m., which is pretty cool. Mild, rainy morning, high 40s. Henry, like he tends to do, was out like a shot. We made fun of him -- but the pace stayed where he set it. My watch conked after mile 1 so I don't have splits, but all that he called out (he didn't say every one, couldn't interrupt good running conversation) were sub-7. Based the total time (about 1:22 or so), we averaged around 6:50/mile. Just clipping along this morning, we were really moving well and the pace felt fast but not uncomfortable. I felt fantastic and not really taxed at all, Mike said he was a little drained on the way back but we stuck with it. Finished one water bottle and a small Clif during the run, and my stomach loves me for it. That's the end to another really good week for January, if I get a good long run in tomorrow (trail run planned) I'll be within a few of 150 miles for the month, which wasn't supposed to be on my radar until March or so. So a good start to 2010. supernova glide -- 239
