10.100.000.000.0010.10

Returning back to the blog after a long break.  Really miserable weather here during the winter.  Finally get to run outside more often.  Today's weather was fantastic so I trotted out 10 miles.  I'm struggling with a lot of things so I'm returning back to running more often to build my self confidence and enrich my life.  Rebuilding for now.

Could only muster up just under 6 miles.  Legs felt really flat, but it feels good to be on the road again.  Did some easy strength training afterwards.  I have to wonder how that first long run of the year is going to feel.

Light rain, cooler, and more windy today.  Jogged around an 8:30 pace.  Felt better today versus yesterday, but when I get tired , I get tired quickly.  Feels like a big cliff between feeling good and feeling tired right around the hour mark.  Not tracking shoe miles anymore because I'm still rotating the same beaters I had all last year.  I lost count, but probably getting towards 1200 miles a piece on them.  Getting my money's worth in these tough economic times!!!

Did a loop around the neighborhood around a 8:30 pace.  I planned to go out for another half loop, but noticed my little daughter crying while passing my house.  She couldn't keep up with her bigger sister so I cut my run short to go trot around and play with her.  All better now.

Didn't feel too bad, some soreness by the end.  I did a little strength training afterward.  I'll try for another 40 or so miles next week.  Forecasting 70s!!

Ran just over 7 miles @ 8:00-8:30 pace.  Another great day weather wise.

Another easy 7 miles at around 8:30 pace.  Sunny, windy, with temp in the low 70s.  Feeling pretty good, but would like to shift to a early morning running schedule.  Too tempting for me to blow off the run late in the afternoon.  But I don't care for colder dark mornings either.

Another terrific day and another 7 miles.  Planning a longer run tomorrow and then more 7s to finish the week.
