This morning wasn't one of the better days to run weather wise, but it was certainly better than yesterday's snow/rain. The wind was blowing about 15mph, but it was a circular wind and made it difficult to get any type of a consistent pace. The temperature was 25 degrees, but with the wind it felt colder. My plan was to run at least 10 miles. I ended up running 11.2 miles at 7:01 pace in 1:18. My legs felt okay, but I've been tired this week with the crazy stuff and extra hours of work I've been putting in. There's a 10k race in Idaho Falls that I'm thinking about running. I've put around 80 miles this week and I'm wondering how I would do with my legs not exactly fresh. I haven't decided if I'm going to run it or not. I think it would be a good benefit and good for the training though. Lunch: Ran 4.2 miles at a 7:07 pace in 30:18 minutes at lunch today. I just took it easy in case I decide to run the 10k Race in Idaho Falls tomorrow. First mile uphill and the rest flat and downhill. Ran 1.30 miles with the wife, and she did great in the nice wind that we had. We averaged a 13 minute mile. She's doing good getting back into running and I keep encouraging her that she'll be where she used to be at.
