| Sick today with the stomach flu. Hopefully, I will be able to run tomorrow. I went to work and have been dealing with writing code all day with Perl with Mysql using the DBI module. Were writing a new account creation system, and Mysql will be used to store a lot of the students information. Error checking in Perl and Mysql is not fun, I've been trying to find a good error checking module already out there. Really fun stuff to look at when your not feeling your best. |

This morning I ran at -4 degrees so I dressed in two layers. I ran 8.2 miles at a 6:47 pace. I wore three pairs of gloves. My hands are really the only thing that gets cold. There's still quite a bit of snow on the ground so your always having to watch out for ice.
This afternoon I did some speed on the treadmill.
Mile 1: 6:40
Mile 2: 5:56
Mile 3; 5.20 .6: 5:10
Total 3.6 miles.
Then I did some weight lifting afterwards that was fun. |

Being tired today I ran 9.3 miles at a 6:53 pace in 1:04 in 6 degree weather. I was grateful it was above zero today. Very hilly course again 2 miles of the course were totally uphill probably peaking at 300 to 400 feet from the starting point of the 2 miles.
I not sure what I'm running tomorrow morning anywhere from 8-10 miles and maybe some in the afternoon. The sick days I had this week through my schedule off a bit.
I still need to find a hotel in Boston. I went to www.marathontours.com and all the hotels they suggested are booked. I wanted to be close to everything since I've never even been close to the city of Boston before. I would say I'm in a bit of a punch right now. Not sure what I'm going to do, but lacking of planning put me in this situation. |

Colossians 3:23 (NLT) Work hard and cheerfully at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.
I want to dedicate this bible verse to my running that I do it for the Lord only. I want to run as though I enjoy seeking the Lord.
The temperature this morning was suppose to be wermer than Wednesday, but it wasn't. It was 1 degrees, but with no wind so that made it nice. I ran 8.2 miles at a 6:36 pace in 54:18. I looked like frosty the snowman when I was done. My eyebrows had ice all over them. I had to keep cleaning them off during the run, because when I would blink the ice would almost keep my eye shut. I can't wait till the temperatures get warmer it makes it so much easy to prepare in the mornings to run. I'm getting tired of looking like the midnight robber covered from head to toe with clothing. |

Today I ran 20.3 miles in a 7:08 pace in 2:24:50. I really took it slow in about the first 14 miles than I picked the pace up a bit. Very comfortable run for me. This course was very hilly and I'm sure harder than the Boston Marathon course. Here is a image of the elevation below, I wanted this to be a hard run to evaluate where I'm phyiscally running a up and down course. I feel awesome after the run no soreness. My wife came and met me on the 16 mile teasing me by hanging a vault zero out the window of the car. That's what I like to drink after running. I know it's a pop and not the best thing, but I'm not perfect.
My wife was concerned because I left when it was 9 degrees outside, and blowing. My hands got really cool after the 10 mile, but they were fine by the time I got home. I need to go buy some gore-tex gloves, because I don't see our weather getting warmer. This training is difficult in the cold weather like this, because I can't do speed work with a breathable mask on so I pick days when I can do it. Okay I'll quit whining and quit making excuses. I'll is well though.
