4 easy miles on treadmill this morning I just wasn't feeling like heading out into the cold this morning even though I should have. I'll try squeezing in a few more mile over lunch or after work this evening.

 

Over lunch I ran home and put 3 more miles on the treadmill. I started off at 6.8 mph and increased every quarter mile by 2mph. The last 400 was at 8.8 mph and then the last 200 I upped it to 9mph which is equivalent to my goal pace of 6:42. This run seemed to go a lot better than this mornings run.

Boston's quickly approaching. Time to start getting that mileage up a bit. Sounds like your home gym is paying off.

Sticking to the plan Rhett. After last years 11.5 min PR I decide I am going to try and replicate that plan as much as possible. I have been running a few more miles along with running some of my speed/goal pace runs faster than last year. Through in the strength aspects I've included this year hopefully I can drop that PR a little bit more if the weather is good. At this point we maybe running the Boston Marathon with snow piles still on the side of the road!! Glad I'm not training for the race there.
