Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

| Ran to the gym and 50 minutes on the elliptical, with a 10x3-minute interval workout (1 minute rest). My heart rate got up to 177-178 by the end, which is about 90% of my max. So I'll deem it a worthwhile workout. The workout went by fast because I watched Super Bowl highlights and analysis on Sports Center the whole time. What a great game! I wanted the Cardinals to win, but still enjoyed watching Pittsburgh run the 2-minute drill perfectly. Seth didn't like all the yelling of a Super Bowl party, though, as it frequently woke him up from naps. Stacy and I don't like loud noises, and therefore never yell, so Seth hadn't heard a good football bellow until now.
After the elliptical I did 1x60 @ 100 lbs on the hip sled, then ran home.

| I didn't feel quite right during my workout yesterday, and then after breakfast I crashed pretty hard with a fever and other flu-like symptoms. Bleh. I stayed home from work, took two 3-hour naps, watched "Run for Your Life" (an excellent documentary on Fred Lebow and the creation of the New York Marathon), and generally took it easy. I'm feeling a bit better today, but still a little lethargic and ooey in the gut. I'll work some from home (thanks to remote desktop), but no workout today. | | Comments(2) |

| Today I deferred my workout until after work, to make sure I was feeling better (so hard to tell early in the morning). I ran the Landfill Loop, and averaged 7:09/mile. The air here is yucky. |

| Back at it this morning. Ran to the gym, then did 2x15-minute "tempos" on the elliptical, with 5 minutes recovery between sets. Ran home and ran the dog. |

| Ran the dog around the block, then ran the Providence Hill Loop. Stopped at the gym and did 10 minutes on the arc trainer and 20 minutes on the elliptical. Also did some leg press. Ran home. Not a bad day, but my left SI was pretty sore. Pace was around 7:30/mile for most of the run. |
