12.30 miles at an overall 6:57 pace in 1:25 Very windy day the miles were sort of tough with the 25 to 30mph wind gusts and a light snow falling. Tougher ran even when I tried dropping my pace to like a 7:30. I did 5 x 100 strides at the end and that felt good. I was tired in this run from staying up to midnight again working. Lunch: Originally, I was going to run outside today. But it was a complete mess of snow/rain coming down. The wind was blowing very strong, and the streets were just puddled. I only had my racing flats with me and I didn't want to ruin them. I went to Gold's Gym where I have a membership, and ran 9.2 miles on the treadmill in exactly 1 hour. I warmed up for the first two and did a couple in 6:30, a couple in 6:18, and a couple under 6. Nice run, but I would have rather ran outside. I skipped my work's holiday potluck, because I didn't want to eat all that junk. I wanted to stay disciplined and eat my Bagel, raw oats with honey, and a thing of low fat Yogurt. Believe me sometimes you have to have will power. I didn't want to digest something that would mess up this weeks runs.
