| | AM - Met Jordanne and Lisa at Lake Youngs for a lovely morning rainy muddy run. Lots of hills. Legs felt fairly heavy again, my shoes are so disgustingly muddy now! Is it weird I'm sad about that? I made Jordanne run 2 more miles after Lisa left and I think she was going to murder me. TT: 1:36:20 AP: 10:29 Splits: 10:53, 9:46, 10:21, 10:18, 10:11, 10:46, 11:04, 10:13, 10:41 Time to make more tutus? At the Christmas races last weekend I decided I really wanted a tutu (after seeing some fabulous ones!), so last night I made a little one for Denali. Keep in mind I have tons of chores (including wrapping presents) and data entry I should have been doing instead! |

PM - 60 minutes on the elliptical, some weights after. Did 2 minutes hard, 2 minutes recovery, and was sweating profusely by the end!
Hurried home to go to Zoolights with Lisa and Denali!

| | AM - 3 miles around the neighborhood. So sluggish and horrible, why can I not be a morning runner? Did 1 minute really hard, 2 minutes recovery, repeated 4 times, then I was beat so I stopped way early and decided to finish later.
PM - Felt so much better in the afternoon! 4 miles around the neighborhood with Cooper. Ran 2 hills hard and then did 2 800's hard (is it bad to have your dog do speedwork?!). We were both so tired by the end. Don't have the Garmin so no splits but I know the 800's were: 3:49, 3:48 Afterwards had a fabulous date in Seattle - delicious dinner at Red Lantern, beautiful Christmas lights at Candy Cane Lane, and some Yogurtland dessert. Pistachio Yogurtland is the most delicious thing ever made.

| | AM - A lovely 6.2 miles in the sunshiney weather, wonderful! Was dragging this morning though, it was cold out and I wasn't in any hurry to get out there. But then I was shocked by the pace - I haven't run a mile that started with an 8 by accident since probably April, if not since 2010! TT: 54:25 AP: 8:50 Splits: 9:38, 8:46, 8:40, 8:44, 8:21, 8:38 |

| | AM - Everyone was still sleeping so headed out for a 60 minute + walk with Cooper on the beach, very calm and quiet and nice. PM - Took Cooper on another 45 minute-ish walk on the beach, again loveliness. |

AM - 10 miles that took me everywhere - the outlets, the new Bi-Mart, the beach, past 2 deers, the casino, the richey neighborhood, etc. Felt great until mile 10, almost quit after 9 because I was so tired and sluggish, that was rough to keep going. TT messed up because I accidentally continued on Thursday's workout, but it was around 1:33:29 Splits: 9:58, 9:24, 9:23, 9:11, 8:52, 9:24, 9:05, 9:29, 9:32, 9:03 1 mile to go to get to 1,000! After met Sarah for coffee to catch up. Now for holiday fun! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE EVERYONE!
