I need to caught up here. I've been so busy with work and running. I'm still only taking one day off per week running.
Monday February 12th
I ran 11.3 miles at a 6:50 pace on a very hilly course. It was a good run to start the morning off with. Not really too cold. We are starting to get warmer. I believe we won’t experience anymore single digit weather.

Today was track speed work day. The temperature was 28 degrees which wasn't too bad, but the track was all frosted over. It looked like an ice skating ring, but it wasn't icy at all.
I did 6 X 800's
Mile 1
Repeat: 2:48 Rest 3:19
Mile 2
Repeat: 2:42 Rest 3:24
Mile 3
Repeat: 2:41 Rest 3:23
Mile 4
Repeat: 2:41 Rest 3:18
Mile 5
Repeat: 2:43 Rest 3:24
Mile 6
Repeat: 2:48 Rest (did get this one)
These were okay, but I was hoping a little faster.
Afterwards I just kept running for 5 .5 more miles at a 6:38 pace. Total miles 11.5.
I was frozen by the time I got home, because I didn't wear the proper clothing for this training session

My left calf has felt really tight after this run and still does a little bit. I think I pushed too hard on that last mile. Maybe two straight fast runs in a row is not a good idea.

I made this run into a recovery run since I haven't been doing very many which is foolish. I ran 7.7 miles at a 7:20 pace. My left calf was still tight after this run, but nothing that's really affecting my running, but I want to make sure I don't ignore it. I ran in my new Avia Lites shoes that came yesterday. I’ve been running in the Asics DS Trainers, and I think because there a little lighter that I’m going to make them my marathon shoe |

I did my long run again on a Friday, because it fits my schedule better. I did the craziest elevation I think I've ever done. I went up and down so much that it was like being on a rollercoaster. I ran 21 miles at a 7:03 pace in 2:28. I took an ice bath after this run, because I haven’t done one for a while. My left calf isn’t as sore as it was on Wednesday. Tomorrow will be a recovery run of some mileage I don’t know yet. Whatever I feel like doing.

| Today was a recovery run, and the weather was very nice. It was 34 degrees no wind, and the sun was out so I ran 8.5 miles at a 7:20 pace. Not really much to report other than I ran a flat course some up and down but not a very far distance.
Now I really have a tough decision to make. I've wore my Avia Lites in my last 5 marathons and they have done me good, but the new Asics DS Trainers 12's I've ran my last two 20 milers in, and I seemed to perform very well, and their even lighter than the Avia Lites so I need to decide which shoe to go with. What I might do is run my next 20 miler in my Avia Lites to see what I feel is the best.
