Run around the river. Cool out, but great day to run. Glutes were a little tight from all the squats last night.

The floating brindge was taken down so my route went up by 0.2 miles...

Nice day to run. Upped my effort a little. Nothing drastic- just needed a to add some spice right now without stepping out of my aerobic base building zone.

One river loop and two cc laps.

I have been breaking out my bike at night and hitting the trainer for about 30 minutes and doing my ab/arm workout after. Started a little sluggish, but warmed up after about 2 miles. Plus I sprinted on my mt. bike with Luca up and down the street for about 20 minutes (husband is on a hunting trip for a week so I have to be creative to wear her down while at home...)

Picked up the pace a tad- not much and not to push it at all. 7:15pace. Ran home and picked up Luca and ran her back to work- my arms were exhausted. She needs to do about a 50 mile run...

i wore my Garmin today and my pace is about 15 seconds faster than I thought I have been running. Easy run at 7:32 AP. My pace yesterday was probably 7:10 pace...

Was called to play a flag football game this morning. Squeezed it in before the cyclo race. Ran two miles to warm up for the race. 6 laps at race for just under 10 miles in 50 minutes on my mt bike. Fun race- good way to get leg work in.

7:35 pace. Lots of wind pushing me around- and the last warmer temps of the season....highs in the 30s this week. Time for my tights and gloves!

It was cold out today. Temps at 18F with a lovely north wind that made the windchill -4F.  A little too early for temps that cold, but at least the sun was shinning.

One river loop, 2 cc loops.

Another frigid 10. Winds weren't as bad as yesterday, but it was still brutal running north.  10k loop then over to the park to finsih with the cc loop.

First run in the snow for the season. Forgot my sunglasses so I had to fight snowflakes hitting my eyeballs. Not too many things better on a run than the crunch of snow under your feet and the quietness of falling snow.

Throught the soft snow. Most of my loop was not plowed so each step was like running in sand.

Another 10 in the snow. The sections on the snow are nice and slow and I just pretend I am running on the beach somewhere...

I did see 2 awesome bald eagles perched just above the river next to my path.

On the clear paths my legs felt springy and fast. Enter the mile of ankle deep snow: talk about a strength workout- my glutes were burning...

Moderate workout today. Just to keep the legs from forgetting about speed... Nothing fast 4 x 10 min on/ 2 min off. On at 6:50 pace off 8:30. Legs felt good. Ran the first 1.25 miles with a new runner at 9 min pace and OA pace was at 7:28 so not too shabby. The trail for the Turkey Trot is going to be slippery under the trees!

No snow- just mud to sludge through. My new shoes are nice and broken in now..

 

PM- 2 miles with Luca and 9:30 to get her exercise in. Slow miles to let her run.

10k around the river with 2 miles of fartleks. 30 seconds normal pace, 30 seconds pick-ups.

Then  headed over to the cc course for another 5k. Trail was extra bumby today and my ankles were rolling all over. Almost went down a few times...

Ran our local 10k turkey trot for a workout. Nothing fancy- 6:45 pace. My legs could feel the transition from racing to higher mileage. Went home for brunch then took Luca for a bike ride to the river then ran four.

easy jog in the wind with Luca and the hubby. His calves were tight from trying to beat me yesterday so we took it really easy....
