College Blvd Loop at a fairly easy pace this morning of 7:43/miwith each mile getting progressively faster than the previous mile. Considering how terrible I felt Saturday at the end of the run I felt like a totally different person today. I also stepped on the scale this morning after my run and saw a number I have not seen in a very long time 172.5 lbs. The lightest I have been since starting to train for marathons has been 174 lbs.  That is a good sign.

4 miles on the treadmill after work. I modified my workout to run a 1 mile warm up then 2 miles with 400m at goal pace (9mph) then 400m rest at 7mph. Finished up with 1.25 miles at 7mph and each 400m after that progressivily getting faster by 0.2mph. Overall the body felt pretty good.

5 miles in this morning at 7:55/mi average. The wind was steady at 17 mph and wind gusts stronger that almost stopped you in your tracks or pushed you to the side dependent on the direction it hit you. Overall just an easy day run for a few miles.

College Loop this morning in chilly weather of 19 degrees and 5 mph winds making it a feel like temp or 10degree. It was nice not having the wind but it was cold & I definitely had a great looking ice beard after the run. Overall average pace was 7:12/mi which is the fastest average pace I have had on this route ever. My legs felt good and I pushed up the hills trying to keep that hill strength I'll need to get through Boston. Finished up with some stretching before hitting a very hot shower today to get that chill out.

The Runner's Edge group run had some pretty darn good running conditions this morning in the mid 30's rising and a light breeze to no no wind. This group seems to be all mixed and matched and nobody is really doing the same training plan this time around. Most of the group did a 3mi on 2 min off fartlek type workout during the first half of the run in which I just kept it at an even effort and caught back up to the group on their easy portions. I had talked with Terry on Friday evening and he was planning on running 18 miles with me so at the 16 mile turn around where everyone else turned around we continued another mile and before we turned. Overall I felt 100% better than last weekends 14 mile run and was able to keep the overall pace of 7:11/mi on the entire mile. The last mile or so my legs were definitly feeling the pain.
