8.16 miles @ lunch (outside)

I went out too fast on this one, but then stuck with it even though I was battling myself mentally the whole run.  Weather was awesome...... longsleeve & shorts!

6.84 miles @ lunch (treadmill)

These were my first miles as a Master's runner.  Today is also the first day that my BQ qualifying time moves from a 3:10 to a 3:15.  If I can't shave a minute and a half off of my marathon PR then something is wrong.  Will my third marathon be the charm?  Only time will tell.....

7.24 miles @ lunch

My Garmin strap totally disintegrated this morning..... bummer.  I ran with the old K-Mart special which cost under ten bucks.  I mapped out the run when I got back to my desk and my pace per mile equated to a 6:49 avg.  It felt nice not looking at the watch all the time and just listening to what my body was telling me.

6.2 miles - snow run

In the trails with lots of snow.  I took a big digger in Pratts Brook Conservation land..... trying to brake as I was coming down a steep decline.  There was a sheet of ice underneath the powder and next thing I know I'm looking up at the canopy of trees with the snow falling heavily between them.  BOOM..... elbows & butt first.  That woke me up :)  Really slow & good workout.  8:57 avg.
