Christmas morning run.  I was planning to run easy but getting chased by a dog in the second mile suddenly sparked a progressive run.  splits were 8:05, 7:43, 7:37, 7:33, 7:04.  I felt really good and it was so peaceful and relaxing to be out running on Christmas morning.  It was one of those runs that I felt like I could keep going forever but unfortuntely I had to work. 

Now I'm at work until 2pm.  Merry Christmas everyone!!  I hope Santa brought you everything you wanted. :D

25 minutes weights.  worked my biceps and then did my pushups.

9 miles on the treadmill.  I did 1 mile repeats.  the fast miles were sub-7 minute pace.  I felt pretty good and am really hoping I can hold a sub-7 minute pace for my 10k coming up.  I was definitely feeling all the junk I've been eating in my gut towards the end.  I need to get back on track with the healthy eating,

Got going kind of late this morning.  Slept in, did some work from home and finally hit the road around 9am.  I was feeling tired and lazy but once I got going I felt better.  I wanted to run really easy since I had plenty of time and had done 2 harder workouts in a row.

My main goal for this run was just to run at a comfortable pace.  I am very guilty of running medium-hard all the time and I want to get more in tune with my natural pace.  Ended up with 12 miles in 1:37, 8:05 average pace.

25 minues weights.  Worked chest and shoulders.

7 miles on the treadmill.  I did hill climbs today.  first .75 of each mile were at 1% incline and last .25 of each mile was at 4%.  These are hard!

Back to work today. ugh!

20 minutes weights.  Finally worked my legs.  Walking lunges, and squats.  I am sore already.

8 miles on the treadmill.  I sprinted out the last .10 of each mile just to keep myself entertained.  Averaged an 8 minute pace for the run.

PM:  Loving the heat wave in UT.  2 mile easy run with the pup, 8:30 pace.  It felt great to be outside.

25 minutes weights.  worked triceps and then did my pushups/planks

I had a big workout planned for today and I was nervous.  My legs were sore from lunges yesterday and I just wasn't sure if I could pull it off.  The plan was a 5 mile tempo run at sub-7 pace. (goal 10k pace)

Warm up was 1 mile at 8:12 pace and then I went right into the workout.  I started out a little slow with the first mile at 7:03 and then I bumped it up a notch for each mile after that.  Mile 2 was 6:58, mile 3 6:53, mile 4 6:53, mile 5 6:48.  2 mile cooldown at 8:20 pace.

I did end up dropping the incline all the way down to 0% on the treadmill by the last 2 miles at tempo but I still got through the workout and never stopped so I am calling it a success.

Okay so I was planning to head up north to run tomorrow but it is looking like it may not happen.  If anyone is interested in running 13-15 miles with me in Utah County in the morning please let me know.

I woke up with an awful head cold this morning.  I have been around sick kids for the past two weeks and I think my luck has finally ran out.  I also yelled way too loud at my Dad's H.S. basketball game last night and had an awful sore throat.  I laid in bed for awhile and then checked the weather.  I should never check the weather because it just psychs me out.  It said 19mph winds and I was not up to fighting it so I dragged my lazy ass to the gym.

I planned for 13 miles but as soon as I got to the gym I knew it wasn't happening.  I felt weak and light headed.  I somehow found the strength to run 12 miles but it was not pretty.  I am stubborn and probably should have quit after like 4 but whatever I wanted at least 12 miles to ring in 2012!  Now I am sipping on diet coke and taking it easy hoping that whatever bug I have goes away soon.
