Snow/rain outside means I'm running inside, ran to the fieldhouse, around the fieldhouse and back home.  Total for the last 7 days is 100.7 (I start my weeks on Monday) first week over a hundo this year!

AM: Ran by the capitol before a workout tonight.

PM: Track workout! Dun dun dun!  First time on the track in almost a year and up was 2 by 5k at tempo pace.  Started out a little faster that I thought was good (was shooting for 540-545) but ended up pretty much holding the pace.  Like previous hard efforts it's the legs that have to catch up to my cardio shape.  Has the track shins for the first 5k, but mostly went away for the second.  800 jog between intervals, and ran with Jake, Andrea and ACorn.

17:18 - 529, 532, 536

17:24 - 533, 535, 533 (Had Andrea do several of her 200s with me the last mile which helped to keep me focused.)

All in all very successful first workout and gives me some hope for throwing down a fast half back in Buffalo in May.

AM: 10.8 through Sugarhouse and Liberty parks, feeling surprisingly good after yesterday's workout.  Though I did wake up a few times during the night with sore legs.

PM: 7.6 ran by the ran by the capitol, has to stop by the lab to let some undergrads in.  Legs feel tired, but one more day till an involuntary easy day as I travel to Florida.

AM: 11.6 Colder than I thought it would be so looped back to the house after a mile to grab some gloves.  Then started my fartlek workout down 3rd ave to the capitol, tough interval climbing capitol hill, then 2 miles up city creek and then back home on 11th.  Got in 20 intervals, meaning about 4-5 miles of hard running.  One more easy run tonight then Florida!

PM: 5.8 Down to Liberty Park and back, dodging cars the whole time.  70 miles in 4 days is my best not counting my 100 miles 100 beers week (125 miles 150 beers for those who wondered).

Ran 7 miles as warmup, race and 5 miles cool down.

Race was nothing special, one kid went out like a bat out of hell.  Reeled him back in and caught him right before the turnaround.  Chatted up some bystanders to mess with his head and cruised to a win.  I won a 3 month membership to the Gold's Gym in Sarasota, FL guess I'll just have to stay down here.
