Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon. I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out. Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

HAd to head to the warehouse for work, so was out the door @ 5:45. Early & dark..boo! My left hip/glute felt pretty tight, so took the warm-up and cool-down real slow. Kept the repeats a little relaxed as well. Ran 100S to the farm roads for the repeats.

2.70 warm-up,

4 strides,

8 x :30 @ 5:10 to 5:00 pace w/ 3:00 slow jog,

2.70 cool-down

Windy & cold, so went to the gym. It was actually pretty fun.

2 miles chill,

1 set of XC skier, ski hop, speed skater, jumping jacks, butt-kicks, high-knee skipping, carioca, & bounding w/ a stride between each.

Windy and cold... It may just be me but I'm not ready for cold running.

Amen to that! I'm stoked to start snowboarding, but another month of wamr temps would have been nice.
