I had intended on getting a run in on the old beast of a treadmill in my garage since the roads were covered with snow, but after a few back jarring skips of the tread belt, I opted not to get injured on a treadmill. The next 5.35 were run on hard pack with my Inov8 295 trail shoes. They served their purpose. 7:53 avg.

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!

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.....

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.

It was raining up until 11:30am, so I thought my lunchtime jaunt was to be on the mill. The rain stopped just in time and I was able to squeeze this run in. I should probably take a shower now that it's 7:30pm and my lower legs are still covered in dried road grime. 7:13 avg.

| 10 miles - gym treadmill
I started out at 8:00 for the first mile and then gradually dropped down from 7:47-7:30 for the next mile. The next three miles were a 6:58 tempo, and the three after that were a 6:40 tempo. Mile nine was a 6:18 & mile ten was back up to a 7 ish pace. I didn't plan on this workout, but the woman next to me was definitely racing...... thanks lady!
