10.3 miles with Joe this morning -ish was up late playing poker last night so i took an opportunity to sleep in then went out on the winco- walmart loop took it conversationally slow and just took in the sights since it was such a nice day out 

4.0 am miles lots to get done today so cut my am run shorter at least got a little in :) no pm run tonight with bowling sheesh my week is starting slow ha ha oh well not like it is a contest i just run for fun 

2.5  am miles went out with joe this morning and as we got into our route his leg started tightening up so we cut it short no sense risking injury for him otherwise it was a brrrrisk morning run just enough to get a start on the day

8.5 pm miles on the track at the gym I dont care much for running there having to go around such a short track but i endure it from time to time . Tonight it was to run with Tiff (she hates running in the cold) It was very crowded tonight with all the new years resolutioners ha ha made running more like dodging traffic similar to the Komen 5 k if you have ever dione that one. Any way it was good to stretch the legs out all the same . I will not complain about any run short ,long fast slow crowded or otherwise I just love to be out doing it

5 am miles Ran the golf coarse loop by Murray parkway and onto the river trail it makes for a nice less traffic route and this morning with the colder air was just what I was looking for to get me moving and ready for the day 

12 pm miles It was a hybrid 12 tonight after dinner at Tiffs we went over to the gym I ran laps while she cross trained. Usually I try to cross train as well but really felt like I wanted to run and so I did. Then when I finished there I bundled up and put on my back pack and got a few more miles running home. The gym was not nearly as crowded although we did go a little later than last night figuring if it was too congested I could leave any time. Over all a good day for me :)

3.6 am miles Andrea wanted to run with us this morning so the three of us (Andrea, Joe and I) took the 7th west loop it was a little cooler out this morning but once we got into our groove it was not too bad ,plus we only went for a fairly short one 

13.1 pm miles Went exploring a new route tonight has a variety of hills and terrain a really good cross section I think. was holding a fairly good steady pace about 8:30's then had to make a pit stop about half way through which cost me aprox 5 min ha ha what can I say it was an emergency. Luckily there was a taco bell there with decent restrooms. Once back on the road I was able to get right back into my same rythm feeling very comfortable at that pace not too taxing

9.25 am miles New variation of the winchester -wal mart route this one cuts out having to cross the busy freeway on ramps , really seems to be much better and prolly safer too. brilliantly brisk morning, was not sure how my legs would be after the last two longer ish days but after the first few miles they were really in decent shape. I was able to hit a comfortable pace early on and as usual went negative splits from there on out. finished feeling relatively good at about an 8:33 average pace according to my watch :)

7.0 am ish miles (10:30 still counts as morning right ) I had volunteered to take Joes kids to their swim lesson at the gym since he had a meeting so I decided to make the most of it and ran the track while we were there managed to get 7 miles in (70 laps ) while they did their thing kinda nice not to have to bundle all up to run sometimes but the round and round is a bit monotonous 

6.25 afternoon miles it was such a glorious day out had to supplement my afternoon with another run in the warm sunshine. Took off on the 13th west loop and had such a great time. I know it is wishful thinking and dreaming of spring but today sure had a lot of spring like qualities
