[Grizzly]

Christmas snow and temps of -15c / 5f. 4:00 am came early today.<br><br>
15 miles total. 11.5 at an 8:45 pace with iffy traction, and the last 3.5 at a considerably slower pace with a running buddy. Let's just call it slower than recovery pace. It evens out because yesterday's second recovery run was really a fast pace run.<br><br>
If that makes sense to you then maybe you can explain it back to me.<br><br>
Have good ones all.

Six miles in just over an hour on the TM. Still feeling sluggish.

 

[Grizzly]

How many days a week are you running Tigger?

 

[Hippo]

Last night I got a good solid hour of TM work to add to my morning hour. It included a bunch of 3-5 minute intervals at 10%/5mph, something I've been lacking recently.<br><br>
This morning, 45 minutes TM at moderate effort. Hope to go back for an hour after work.<br><br>
I'm now below 195 lbs. This is equal to or below my minimum for 2006 and well below the 200+ I've been running in the last few minutes.

snowshoeing in heavy/wet conditions<br>
OY!<br><br>
might be the last outing for awhile if this rain-sleet mixture comes in tonite<br><img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif">

 

[JackDuggan]

beautiful sunny mild day, but a lousy 5 mile run on local roads. Felt like there was lead in my legs.

 

[tigger]

Too many I guess. Every day if I can. My short runs are 5k. My long ones are 20k. I am getting tired of TM. I had some great outdoor runs last time I was in Timmins.

 

[Floridaboiler]

Morning Run: About 8.2 miles in about 1:12:00. My Garmin went on the fritz this afternoon so I can't get at the data yet.<br><br>
Afternoon Run: About 7.3 miles in about 1:05 I think. Since my garmin locked up I ran without a watch. Probably a better thing since I just ran at a pace that my body liked instead of trying to keep a certain pace.

 

[aphigirl01]

3 miles on the dreadmill and then 45 minute spinning class.

 

[sistergoldenhair]

Taught yoga this morning. 7 miles this afternoon with 5 X 3:00 5K pace intervals/2:00 recovery.<br><br>
My left outer lower leg is achy/twingey in the exact same place it was last taper. Isn't that weird? I felt it gradually come on during the run. I'll ice it well and get a massage on Friday if my MT is available.<br><br>
Nice runs today, Grizzly and Floridaboiler -- way to train hard you guys! Hippo, congrats on the weight loss.

 

[altoids]

circuit training today.<br><br>
My right hip/shin feels all wonky, like my leg is not seated properly in my hip joint. My husband is lecturing me about my mileage, which honestly! I've been obeying the 10% rule. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif">

 

[bootsie]

just 3 miles on the treadmill and probably a little ab work later...<br><br>
My lower back is still aching from yesterday. Like an idiot, I decided to rearrange my office - which involved making 2 large L-shaped desks flip-flop spots - all by myself. It was a very, very stupid thing to do - but when I decide something has to be done - it has to be done now - I can't wait for help. :rolls eyes at self:

 

[movingon]

6.5miles at 4:30am, ran better but still recovering. Considered a double today because it was SO beautiful outside this afternoon but the sharp shooting pains in the left hip made me decide against it.

 

[diablita]

6 hours of skiing today on Blackcomb. We took a lesson. I'm beat!

 

[roots]

Recovery runs. Love 'em.<br><br>
5 miles easy. Cooled down with 6x strides. Felt sluggish during the run, yet charged up after the strides.<br><br>
Woo hoo, Dev! 6 more hours on the mountain. <img alt="icon_smurf.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/icon_smurf.gif">

Late night posting from the Left Coast again. <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"><br>
5 miles into a chilly wind. I really to need to add miles; and I've only gotten 10 Saturday, 4 Sunday, 5 Monday, 7 Tuesday and 5 tonight. I'm going to try to be like Hippo and add some on the joymill in the early morning.<br><br>
Enjoy the gift!

 

[GaRebelRunner]

5 miles Wednesday afternoon between a training class.

 

[OakDawg]

Got 5.2 in on the treadmill.<br><br>
I think I could have done more, but my legs were pretty heavy and I'm trying not to cook myself too early this year. Patience, young man!
