I can do it. I will do it NINE times!

After a great day off yesterday, I did an hour long run today in the awesome weather! I only wore a t-shirt and shorts, it was almost like the good ol' days in SG. Legs are still a bit sore and worn out from the weekend, but not the worst I've ever had. Lifted afterwards, as usual. (K 471.2)

Did some strides with Sam at the fieldhouse later in the evening. The hard surface wasn't so great on my shin, but other than that they felt good. 

Warmed up and stuff, then did a 48 minute tempo at 7:00/mi pace. There was the nastiest crap in the sky for the whole thing! We just called it acid rain. But it got speckles all over me and dirty and didn't feel good to breathe. However, the run itself went a lot better than I was expecting. I only got tired on the uphill sections and even those weren't that bad. Average pace per mile was 6:49 and we were trying to slow down for most of it. Hahaha. Then I cooled down to the engineering computer lab. Then it rained. And now it's SNOWING! Wtf? I hate the bipolar weather. It was in the fifties yesterday! Good thing I'm going to be in sunny St. George come Friday! (DS 152.4)

Not too bad out, just did an hour around town before weights. In weights, I almost died. We did more than we've done before and it was really hard. I feel like a wimp. (K 478.7)

Did 45 minutes of 400s @ GP 78-84 before class. 7 am - so early! Hehehe. Was feeling pretty dang sore from weights, so the repeats didn't go so well. Plus I did the repeats on the outdoor track of which about 1/3 was covered in ice and/or snow. The ice was ok (because of spikes) but the snow sucked. Anyway, I ended up doing 17 reps. Two less than last time, but oh well. I finished. Times were: 82, 79, 80, 79, 77, 78, 78, 79, 78, 79, 79, 80, 80, 79, 80, 80 and 76. Done and done. Dead and dead. Now, on to Spring Break!!!

Had the hardest time getting out the door today. I'm in Farmington, NM with Gene, Gretchen and their kids and I'm so dang sore! Plus, it was super windy and a little chillier than I was expecting. So I didn't want to go out and have to wear a jacket. Pout. I finally dragged myself out the door and got in an hour of running. I know, I know, I was supposed to go at least a half hour more than that, but I just couldn't muster any motivation to go any more. It was a feat that I did as much as I did. Blah. (K 486.5)
