Too snowy to run today (more on the way!).<br><br><br>
Stretch / Abs / 3 X Weightlifting Circuit ( total body ).

I won't be running today, but I will do a full body weightlifting session tonight-all free weights.

A tad sore after yesterday's long run. I ran mostly trails and cross country for almost 6 hours and ran a lot of hard downhills. I am planning a short hour long run with the running group tonight.

45 min on the mill today! Very, very slow, but its better than nothing I guess!<br><br><br>
Feet still feel good so I am a very happy camper! <img alt="icon_cheers.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/icon_cheers.gif">

Nice job everyone! Keep up the great work!<br><br>

I was able to do the 15.2 mile loop tonight, even though the sidewalks in Burlington are still bad in spots.<br><br>
I felt okay. A bit of soreness in my right glut.<br><br>
I am considering breaking the contract with my body tomorrow night. For those who don't know, I have some old injuries that can act up occasionally. My body and I have come to an uneasy peace...if I run 3 days on (once a day) and take the 4th day off, my body and I get along. Tomorrow is my scheduled day off, but there is a very good chance I'm going to be forced to take Wednesday off due to a Nor'easter. So, I'm thinking of violating the contract, and doing a <b>VERY</b> easy, short run tomorrow night. It'll be the 4th night in a row, but if I take it really easy, and don't go too far, I think I'll be okay. And I like the idea of taking the chance on the 4th day in a row, rather than taking two days in a row off.<br><br>
I know you always do, but keep your fingers crossed for me folks, please. Violating the contract with my body is something I hate doing, but taking two days off in a row is also something I hate doing too. And running in a Nor'easter is not an option, or at least not a good one! <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"><br><br><b>Run Segments<br>

eq, as long as it's an easy run, and you *will* be getting that rest day, I should think it would be okay.<br><br>
Life (and weather) doesn't always fit into our training schedule. <img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif"><br><br>
I had a lovely run planned for tomorrow afternoon that won't be happening outdoors. Hallo, treadmill. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif">

 

[altoids]

and sierra, good job on the comeback trail! <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

 

[Floridaboiler]

5.91 mile run at lunch today in 49:24. The average pace was about 8:20. My garmin lost its signal in the woods a couple of times because normally the course I ran is between 6.1 or 6.2 miles which means my pace would have been down near 8:05. Today was supposed to be an easy run day after yesterday's long run.<br><br>
Is it good or bad that I run 6 miles in just over 8 minute pace and I think that is to fast for a day after a long run!

 

[equinox marathon 43]

Thanks altoids. And I feel your pain on the dreadmill. I despise running on a treadmill. Still, you have to do what you have to do.

 

[tigger]

6.22 miles with 20 min at 8:37 pace, which is just above my current threshold. The fast portion was "hard" as opposed to "comfortably hard". I could probably have held that pace in a race for about 30 to 40 minutes. But not an hour.<br><br>
Lots of improvement required if I want to average 8:25 at the Vancouver half.
