I ran 12 easy miles today, finishing in 1:19. I felt good, but my IT band hurt a bit today. Hopefully it will go away soon, seeing as I am going to attack it with a "barrage" of exercises. In all, though a good run. I am beginning some 150 meter strides this week at mile pace (5:00 or below) and will be doing so for the next four weeks.

I ran 5 easy miles today, with 10x150 meter strides at mile pace. Felt very good, but a bit cold.

I ran an easy 7.5 miles today in the snow and it was freezing. Even with full winter apparel in the middle of my run, I was still cold. Well, I guess sometimes you just run and ask questions (like why?) later.

An "easy" nine miles today in three feet of snow proved to be tougher than I would have ever expected. I don't even know what I was thinking. It was about 25 degrees (F) and very wet. Most normal people see three feet of snow and stay in their nicely heated house, while some of us feel the "need" to go and run. This whole running thing has corrupted me. I am forever branded!

I ran seven miles today at easy pace. The snow was still very deep, so running was kind of a pain, but I managed to get a decent workout in.

Since I came home yesterday from college, there are no more accessable running trails available to me. There was no effort to plow walkpaths and sideroads, so unless I wanted to run on a main street (which would be way too risky), I had to crosstrain. I spent 35 minutes on the elliptical and managed ot get my heart rate to 185 bpm, showing that the blood definitely got flowing. In all, a decent workout.
