OK...so maybe running on the treadmill isn't so bad. The weather in Washington is starting to get normal, which means ugly. When I ran this morning at 5:15, it was 50 degrees, pouring rain and sustained winds of 25mph with gusts to 40. The storm hasn't even really gotten here yet. Depending on how things go the rest of this week, I may decided to run the USATF Northwest Regional Cross Country Championships in Seattle this weekend. I'm already ticketed to run Nationals in Ohio next month, but I haven't run a cross country race since my senior year in high school (the only year I ran cross country) so the experience will be helpful and the workout will too.

12 miles along the waterfront of San Francisco. Just a beautiful way to start the morning. It was sad to see all the environmental booms along the shore cleaning up the oil spill mess from a few days ago. Threw in a mile's worth of strides. Regular miles were between 6:20-6:30. Probably too fast. I'll know later today. :-)

More gusty winds back home this morning. One almost knocked me over. I actually kind of like the wind when it's really gusty. Breaks up the monotony.

7 easy miles this morning.

Got seven more in tonight. Included 4x800m @ 2:20 with 2:30 rest between each. Felt good to move quickly again.
