Morning run, snowing, temp. 30'

There was about 3-4 inches of snow with packed snow where the cars had driving.  It was kinda slick and I took it easy. 

As I've increased in miles over the last couple months I don't feel like I'm getting any faster.  It seems like my legs are always a little tired and never fresh.  Hopefully, this will change after I get up to 60 miles per week and stablize out.

Time 60:30,  Mile avg. 8:39

Terry it took a while before my legs finally got accustomed to the high mileage. Seems like after 3 or 4 weeks straight leveling off around 60 miles then suddently my legs felt good most days and the speed improved. I don't the lousy weather helps much.

This slowness is very much an illusion caused by the slick and snowy roads, and the extra clothes. I felt dog slow on all of my runs prior to Painters, but once I was in shorts, racing flats, and on asphalt, I ran a PR equivalent and beat my own Sasha Science prediction by over a minute.
