Tempo Tuesday: 1.50 warmup @ 7:50  5 mile tempo @ 6:48 then cool down. Things didn't go great on the tempo- some minor stomach issues had me stopping a couple of times during the run.....but when I was running I was feeling a bit better with the pace.

A few weeks of lower mileage and some R&R will do me some good right now. I have kindof lost the desire to hit things hard, need this break to get back on focus for Boston. I will be doing a double peak training season. I don't know if this is good or not but I am doing it. I ramped up very quickly from '0' miles for almost 3 weeks to 85 miles in a week. Last week to 75 this week to maybe 50 with my traveling to Hawaii. A couple of 50's with the vacation in there then ramp things up for March to 80 or so a week then a couple of weeks bringing it down a bit prior to Boston.
