I ran after work and didn't hit the road until almost 5 so it was dark on the way back but I was able to get a run in and that is what counts! I ran out past Mini GU and then back to the house, i was a little clunky on the way out but then on the way back I was able to get in to a pretty good rhythm. My average pace was 8:38 with a total time of 52:52, I finished up with some upper body weight training and then some push-ups.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran after work today, it was a mild bizzard but not to bad and I was glad that I was able to get out, I started out not feeling real great but as the run went on I seemed to feel better. I ran out to the base of Harry's Hill and then ran to the top, over to woodland hills drive down that and over to canal road and then home. I had one MP mile at 7:46 and then the rest were just steady.  My average pace was 8:47 with a total time of 56:06, I finished up with some lower body weight training, it was good mixture of uphill and downhill today.

See ya tomorrow.

I waited and ran later in the morning giving the snowblows a chance to clear the roads a bit. I felt okay for the most part this morning, not real strong but not real weak either... It snowed the whole way so it was pretty frustrating with the snow pounding down on me, I had to do a VPB which I haven't had for a long while so that was a treat!  My average pace was okay at 8:38 and a total time of 1:27:04, I'm glad I got this run in because this week has not been a real good week of training, kinda lazy if you know what I mean.

See ya Monday
