Busy day. I was motivated to get out but found no time.

Up early and ran before work. Great morning. I did my usual flat course and felt sluggish to start. Did my normal stretching at the mid-point then some strides to loosen up on the way back. I feel good.

Ran in the afternoon and did my hill course.I can see a difference in my performance over the last few weeks. Iam starting to shake off some of my Winter rust. Quick tempo down. Worked on leg turn-over.

Exercise bike and weights 30 min. morning

Met Kent and we ran steady pace at first. At the turn-around, Treeline Rd. we picked up the pace at times. Great run.

Did a morning workout alone. The hill course was calling my name again. I worked it really hard at times and pushed the down hills.

I came back in the afternoon and ran with my daughter Chelsea. Easy mile warm-up then worked into a 7:00 min pace. Last 1.5 was 6:40. Feel good.

Took to the hills for a steady and relaxing run. I feel motivated to push my training thanks to a talk with Sasah. I swam tonight with my family and I need to cross-train somewhat to increase my mileage without getting injured. I am enjoying the spring season but it's time to get serious about running again. Stay focused!

Ran to the Riverbottoms bridge and felt strong on the way out, but met with a difficult head wind on the way back. Good work out but glad to have this one in the "bank".

Snow and cold rain so I worked out on the treadmill. 6x400 @ 6:00 pace with 90 sec. recovery. 1x mile 6:30 pace. Worked with weights and swam laps 20 mins. after. Good workout but much to do!

Ran with Kent and wanted easy miles. Hit a winter storm coming back but had a quality workout.

Mike and I ran from my house and kept a steady pace. Nice afternoon and I felt good considering my increase in mileage. Swam for 22 min. The cross training is helping me .

Met at BSH @ 6:30 am Mike and I ran easy to warm-up then picked-up the pace. At least we felt like we were moving along until we noticed Mike's watch. 8:00 min. pace. I guess yesterday's workout took it's toll. I was wasted after but considered it a great launching week and will try and hold my mileage in the 50's for three weeks.
