Seven easy miles this morning folled by 3 easy miles tonight with Peter and Nate with me on the TM's. Nathan did 4 miles and Peter did 1.5, but walked quite a bit because he had just eaten dinner and wasn't feeling great. I warned him!

Tomorrow...speedwork!

Nice run outside this morning. Just took it easy, but noticed I was at 8:01 average with 1 mile left so I pushed it on the last mile and got the average down to 7:53. Cold though. Speedwork tomorrow.

Great speedwork session. Did 10X.5 with 1 mile warmup at 8:34 and .25 mile recovery at 8:34. The 1/2 mile repeats were done at the following paces:

6:40, 6:35, 6:31, 6:27, 6:22, 6:18, 6:15, 6:11, 5:56 and 6:49. The 5:56 was just so I could touch the outside of jtshad's world for the first time.

Easy day tomorrow.

Run spin run! I haven't done this for a while because I've been so focused on running miles, but I think I'm going to start mixing in some spin/bike miles as cross training.

Ran with my good friend Troy today. I'm not sure if it's just all the miles I've been running or the spin class I did yesterday, but my muscles felt fairly spent the whole time. With two miles left I decided to get some pace miles in and ran the last two at 6:59 and 7:00. I ended up with an 8:18 average so it was a good long run, but it was a battle from the beginning. So why not take the family skiing now. What the heck...
