On the road to BOSTON!

Nice cold and wet run in the rain. Went over to the Dixie Center then past St. George Ford and in to Bloomington, then turned right onto Bloomington Drive to home. Actually wasn't too bad. 8:03 average pace.

Thought the I would get out and do more than 11 miles this week.......man was I lazy!

Bloomington loop 3.50 miles @ 7:33 pace

Same run as last night. Started at 7pm....cold. started out slow with 8:21 then pushed it harder to the finish. 7:25/ 7:12/ 7:30 average of 7:38  Overall a little slower than last night but I felt better about this run because I warmed up a little slower and felt stronger than last night to the finish.

Nice cold run this morning. I waited till it got up to 25 before I headed out. I ran into town and got a bread stick at Judd's Store then back home. It actually felt cold the closer I got to home....glad that is done.  8:43 pace

Evening: Decided to go out on the club run at 4:50. I took off from the Bloomington Path and ran towards the Dixie Center. I caught up with the guys at the 2 mile mark...perfect. Turned around and ran with them back to the trail head. Total of 4 miles @ 7:18 pace. warmed up 7:23 then 7:14/ 7:29/ 7:14 A little fast for me but it actually felt pretty good. 4 miles was plenty for me tonight with doing the longer one earlier.

I wasn't planning on running today because I had plans. They changed. It snowed and I decided to not run then, what the heck, out I went. It was snowing pretty good for the first 3 1/2 miles then it stopped. Not too bad except when I would suck in a big flake in the nose....

I am glad I got out and had a fun non stressful run in the cold and wet.

Looking at my splits they were actually pretty good for the conditions:

8:09/ 8:04/ 7:32/ 7:58/ 8:13/ 7:49/ 7:53/ 8:09/ 8:03/ 7:20/ 6:30      7:55 average

I stepped it up the last 2 miles wanting a strong close to the run.....great close for me!
