| Ran tonight mostly to clear my head of a screamig headache and relieve some sinus pressure. My chest was really tight making for a less than comfortable run. | |

| A cold, snowy, soggy, rainy late-evening run. Still trying to get over a minor cold that brings with it some chest tightness. Fortunately breathing isn't all that important on easy runs. | |

| I did something for the first time tonight. I took my Garmin along with me but never looked at it during my run. I just went out and ran at a comfortable pace without the mile-by-mile check in I always do. I still had it beep at me every mile so I knew when to stop, but didn't check the watch each mile for pace. It ended up being 6:50s which felt very comfortable. I may do this more often. | |

I had my first good workout in probably a month tonight. I was supposed to do it in the University of Washington's indoor facility but the football team was having a late practice in preparation for getting killed by Hawaii on Saturday. So my coach and I met on the outdoor track inside the football stadium. One end of the stadium is completely open so it got pretty cold and it was very dark. But one my eyes adjusted it wasnt a problem.
The workout was a 2.5 mile warmup, a 68 second 1/4, followed by 2M at 5:00 pace each. Then I jogged at 7:00 pace for 15 minutes followed by 2x1M at 4:50 pace with a 3-minute jog between the two. I hit the first two miles at 9:56 after a first lap that was way to fast. On the 2x1s I hit 4:50 both times so I was pretty pleased especially since no one else from the team was there to run with and pull me along. I haven't done a speed workout with another set of guys since summer. I miss that. It's harder to do them alone. | |

| Another easy 10 miles this afternoon. It was a crisp 36 degrees but mostly sunny. It was my first run in daylight all week. It felt nice. I also didn't look at my watch the whole time either. I kind of like that. 6:45s. | |

15 miles at 6:40 pace. Got an early start this morning. It was 32 degrees and light snow flurries at 6:15 when I got started. We're expecting more snow later today so I wanted to get the run in before traction became an issue.
Only looked at the watch once. I've found that this not only makes the run go quicker but it also allows me to think about other things than worrying about hitting certain times. It turns out I hit those times anyway.
Rest day tomorrow. | |
