Finally got out at around 10 this morning. Felt a little hard today and I overdressed a bit.

Cold morning for a longer run for me.  Got stopped 2 times by trains, 2 times by lights, and 1 time by a St. Bernard.  Never felt like I got completely warmed up but I felt good today.

A little tired but I got out the door this morning which if I think about it was the real victory.  The run was the cherry on top.  Slogging around Roy/Clinton today.  At least the air quality has stayed on the yellow side instead of the orange this week.

Foggy, icy, and cold this morning.  Figured it was better this morning than it's supposed to be for the next 2 mornings so I went for it.  Didn't fall so that makes it a good run.  The fog started to clear about 5.5 miles in.

Nice run on a really great morning.  Felt good out with nice clean air and not too cold.  Can't complain about that in January.

Slow, clunky slog this moring.  Too bad I didn't feel a little better because it was a great morning to be out.  I think that saved it for me, can't complain about a morning like we had today in January.

Tired and tired legs today plus it was pretty windy not a good combo.  That being said I had a decent run today.  Sometimes it pays off not to listen to the lazy part of your brain.

Felt a little colder this morning but still a nice morning and a good run.  It's been great having clean air in January.

I ran today which means I wasn't lazy and got out of bed this morning so that's a good thing right?

Not as cold this morning...24 vs. 20.  But it made a difference.  Modified my 5 mile route a bit I think it will work out.  No running down 1800 N in Clinton means a good thing.

Felt tired today but I ended up running this same route about 2:30 faster than last week.  Hopefully that means I'm getting back into some sort of shape.

Windy and warm this morning.  The last 2 mile slight uphill with a 20 mph headwind kinda sucked.  Otherwise a good run today.

Great run this morning with Tim, Cody, Brandon, Becky, Heather, Emily, and Nanette on the parkway. I had a really good fast run. Pretty much a tempo for me right now. Good to know i can run kinda fast still.

Nice run on a really great morning.  We've been spoiled this month with the weather.  Legs got a little tired at 7 miles turning from 4800 onto 3100 but I held strong, weathered the tiredness and got through it... ;)

Another perfect morning, very nice today.  Good run supposed to be a nice easy recovery but I ended up pushing the last couple of miles.  I also overdressed a bit, never thought I'd say that in January.

Bummer the clouds covered up the lunar eclipse this morning but if there's a silver lining it was warm this morning at 39.  I wore shorts today because I overdressed a bit yesterday.  Nice run just cruisin around the hood.
