I ran the dreaded treadmill, or dreadmill as we all like to call it. It was just to cold out there this morning so I stayed inside and made the best of it, my average pace was around 8:34 with my heart rate at 150, total time was 1:02:23... I ran 4 quarter mile tempos at 7:50 pace with a quarter mile cool down in between each repeat, I don't have any splits on those. I also did some strength training on my legs and some core training with 70 push-ups in sets between the crunches...

Tomorrow I will be outside as it is a light day for me, probably 3 miles tops for as I want to go light for Saturday's long run...

See you then.

I don't blame you for going the dreadmill route this morning, the good thing is you got your miles in and at a pretty good pace as well. Seems like your training has been pretty good this last while, you should be looking forward to some great races come later in the year when it finally gets WARM!

Thanks Tom. My leg is still not 100% the pain still comes and goes so I am still a little nervous about the darn thing, but at least I'm running...

Good luck this weekend, I hope you and Kim do well I wish I could be there...
