Tried to get a long one in....

5.7K into my long run today the dog is going nuts so I jump off the treadmill to see whats up and there is a fellow at the door. Turns out he just totaled his truck in the ditch across the road ...luckily he was OK but the truck did fare so well. It was a bitterly cold day so I asked Rick in while we waited for CAA to arrive.

I am working tonight so maybe , just maybe I might get a long one in at the end of my shift!

Short Run

Fit in a short 7K run yesterday!

Yet another lunch staple

Yup , fit another lunch run in ... 5K the easy way!

The staple of my running diet

Another lunch run done , 6.5K 5K of which were at a 5:30 pace. When I cant run due to a busy life I always try to fit in a short one!

Lunch Run

Late lunch today , jumped on the treadmill at work at 11pm and did a 5K run at a 5:30 pace. Felt like I could run forever tonight!

Tempo Tuesday

Somethings just rattle around my head sometime. I remember a RM post that said "its harder to run slow then to run fast". Just about everything I have done this winter has been at a 5:30 pace yet I can get on a treadmill , crank it up to a 4:30 pace and hold it for 6K and it feels great. No fish out of water feeling , nothing hurts and I have no problem singing along to my tunes...go figure. Maybe its like the car that run really well just before it conks out!

Did a 7K lunch run , 6K at a 4:30 pace followed by a 1K cool down.

Afternoon Run

Recovered better from my LSD this week.. I am making slow progress getting back to where I was mid December. With the cold weather outside the treadmill next to the wood stove was a rather warm place to be running today. Geared up to a 5:30 pace over the first 2K but had to back down to a 6 min pace at 5K due to overheating. Did my second very warm 5K at a 6:00 pace for a total of 10K is an hour.
