awesomeness

This run was about survivng. I ate a whole lot of Olive Garden about an hour before my friend asked if I wanted to go running, and I still needed to go so I went. My stomach was not happy with me during that run. My left calf was a bit tight, but loosened up throughout the run.

8 solo miles today. 5 were at a quicker pace (6:42 avg). The first quick mile I felt like I was working way too hard, but after that everything felt pretty controlled. It was amazing weather today, I am loving this January weather. After I rolled out my legs while watching the hunger games in russian, so that was pretty fun.

Nice weather once again, the run was a nice easy recovery run. There was a lot of people out running tonight.

tried to run but my back was pretty messed up, so didn't get very far. I did lots of stretching after.

Did some speed work today. Went to the track and did 10X400. Tried to run controlled. It has been a long time since I have tried to run anything faster than 6:30 so it was pretty hard. My splits were 81, 84, 82, 85, 82, 85, 83, 81, 81, 81. This was a pretty good workout for me. I am going to try to put a workout like this in at least once a week.

Upon waking up I found a whole lot of snow outside! It was pretty much impossible to run, but I had to get in my run so resorted to the treadmill. It was a long ten miles, but I got it done. This week was a good week of mileage, slowly building it up. Also after my run, I tried to get ice cream, and I couldn't get the car out of the parking garage because the hill going out of the parking garage. I was pretty sad because I really wanted some hot cocoa.
