One LSD run of 12 miles on the treadmill in about 1:32. It felt really great, way easier than previous long runs I've done in the 12-14 mile range. But I guess that's because I was only averaging 7:45 pace for the whole thing.

 Hoping to get at least 60 miles for this week.

P.M. 10 on the treadmill. Planned on doing 12 but my plantar fascitis started hurting. It's just all that pounding I guess.

Snow day!

A.M. 4 on the treadmill. It's nice when you don't have to wake up at 5:30 for these runs.

P.M. 4 more. This was a recovery day for me. I also read a lot of interesting stuff about visualization today. You should check out the topic sometime too.

Well I gave up today :P

In the morning I ran 3 miles super super easy.... almost a walk. haha

 

The rest of the day was filled with practice for tomorrows piano recital and driving to Wallula for no reason at all, then some pizza eating. So no 10 mile run like I had planned.

That's alright though, I got the same mileage as I've been getting all month.

And Tyler, or anyone else, if you're reading this I checked out letsrun.com and asked a question on the forum boards about how I'm training. I got a lot of detailed responses, even one from that coach you were talking about, if you want to read about it http://www.letsrun.com/forum/flat_read.php?thread=3348595
