Yay for awesome weather! It was absolutely perfect out: 48 degrees, a little breeze, bright and sunny. Did the AZ out-and-back for my 'push' run. Warmed up 15 minutes then did 8 x 3:00 push sections at 4 with 2:00 jog recoveries between. Distances were .48, .47, .48, .48, .48, .48, .48 and .49. Then a 15 minute cooldown back home. Pushes felt pretty good, knee was a bit sore on the last half. Haha, some twelve-year-old kid tried to flirt with me at one point. Awkward. Funny though! (K 211.3)

AP 9 miler. Ran a bit fast to make it home in time to leave for the bike ride with buddies. We biked the Green Valley loop - bad plan. The melted snow had turned the ENTIRE trail into a mud pit. So we ended up walking our bikes most of the way (stopping occasionally to scrape enough mud off for the wheels to still turn) and getting covered in mud. Quite the adventure. (K 220.6)

AC warmup - hit the police car for old times' sake - then did my speed workout for the week. 16x400 at 1:25 with 45 second recoveries. Times were 1:27, 1:24, 1:25, 1:24, 1:26, 1:26, 1:25, 1:26, 1:25, 1:25, 1:25, 1:25, 1:25, 1:24, 1:23 and 1:20. Felt surprisingly good for my record number of 400's done in one workout, though I didn't do them all that fast. Still, it was nice to not be totally dead at the end. After, I ran GS 4 to cool down.

Happy New Year!

Bloomington loop with a couple extensions this afternoon for a nice 9 miler.  My whole body felt pretty achy. Calves are especially sore from yesterday's 400s. Beautiful day out again, I've been loving running in a t-shirt this week! (K

After the run, I went and and got a massage from April. Hopefully it'll help my hamstring/knee issue for the upcoming track season.

New Year calls for a new color! I'm thinking I'll go green. And resolutions? Hmmm.

1- Stay injury free.

2- Run 2500+ miles this year.

3- Keep improving in track and cross country.

Treadmill sweaty icky sticky gross not-so-fun miles. New record for number of miles run on a treadmill at once. Next time I won't wait until 8 pm on Saturday to do my long run. (K 257.9)
