Back from Las Vegas with just a little money in my pocket. I won a "Fast Time" in one Roatation which paid $ 3,000 ($ 6,000 for the team). This got a lot of my entry fees back so I'm happy to win this. Had one mishap that kept me from making it into the big finals. I slipped a horn on one steer to keep us from being high call back in the big finals. Now it's time to start a new year and qualify again for next year's finals. They are just too good to miss.
Now to running:
I wasn't feeling to good this morning so I decided to only run 10 miles. I seemed to have a cold or sinus infection that is really dragging me down.

Back to the RLRF program although I ran what I missed last week instead of this weeks schedule. I'm still feeling really crummy but Callie (my daughter) is in town and so she went and ran with me. I don't think I would have done this without her being here. I was supprised I actually kept the paces. I actually was much better this time than the last training cycle (3:46 Avg. 165 HR).

Today is supposed to be a cross-training day but it's too cold to ride my bike and I didn't want to go to the gym so I simply ran slow. Target was to keep my HR below 140.

Jeremiah 17:9
9-10 “The heart is hopelessly dark and deceitful, a puzzle that no one can figure out. But I, God, search the heart and examine the mind. I get to the heart of the human. I get to the root of things. I treat them as they really are, not as they pretend to be.”

Well, running 4 days in a row has made me tired as shown in this run. I was schedule to run 6 tempo miles but after 5 I threw in the towel. Nothing hurts on my body and I'm not really sore, just tired. I couldn't even get my HR up to max. I think I'll rest tomorrow.

Galatians 4:21-26
(It's not about the land Israel)
21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law, are you not aware of what the law says? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman. 23 His son by the slave woman was born in the ordinary way; but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a promise.
24 These things may be taken figuratively, for the women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar. 25 Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children. 26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother. |

MLR Today, (learned that term from Slow Joe :-).
Last week's long run was supposed to be 18 @ 8:11 pace (but I missed that run). This week was supposed to be 13 @ 7:41 (and I didn't run this pace). But I guess if you average the two runs I pretty much hit the mark :-)
One thing I noticed was how consistant my HR was throughout the run. I don't think it's ever stayed so even for so long. The 27 degree temperature may have had something to do with this. It was cold but I bundeled up pretty well and luckily I didn't really get too cold, not even my hands or feet.
I have been just drinking water on all of my runs but today I just drank gatorade and took one gel during this run.
When I finished the run I felt pretty good. I believe I could have run a few more miles around an 8:00 pace but I couldn't have complete a full marathon. I guess I still need some more training and conditioning!
