Thoughts: My final training run. I started off going real slow but then met up with a friend on the road and ran with him at my normal pace. Now all I can do is wait until Sunday.

Thoughts: A decent run. I tried to determine which way the wind was blowing prior to my run so I could stay out of it. Unfortunately I chose wrong and had the wind in my face for the first half of the run. But, that meant I had it to my back the second half. My legs feel about 90% from last week's Friday workout. I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to do the same workout tomorrow.

Thoughts: Awful weather this morning, I loved it. It started off as rain and switched over to snow shortly after. As giant snowflake clusters pelted me in the face I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Running through the winter will make running in May that much easier.

Thoughts: It's hard to believe that the mornings are so mild still. I anticipated to be running with my STABILicers at this point. I won't complain. I think my biggest issue right now (besides my eating) is patience. Since I am still in the "Spring season" stage of my training I don't feel like my miles are increasing, so it is hard to see that I am accomplishing anything. My weekly miles are still low, but I think this is a good thing. My knees aren't bothering me anymore and I imagine that they are strengthening, which will help me push beyond my previous wall of 24 miles per week. When that week comes.

Thoughts: As much as my head was like "Gogogo!" my body was like "slow...slow...slow..." My legs were leaden, my energy nil and my breathing labored. I believe it's because I'm slacking on my diet. It's funny because when I eat right (2200 calories or less) I feel great, I sleep well, I have lots of energy, I'm happy. When I overeat all of that changes. Why then do I overeat? I guess that's most of our problems. On the up side, my knees and hips feel fine!

Thoughts: I feel bad because I missed two runs over the Thanksgiving holiday. I brought my running stuff down to Boston with me and even got dressed for a run, but still failed to get out the door. Hal Higon says it's okay to miss a run once in a while, but never miss a long run (Saturday). Luckily, at this point my long runs aren't any longer than my other runs. Now I have to make sure I don't repeat that failure.
I was pretty sore from excessive dancing Saturday night and I didn't eat very well over the holiday break. So, my pace was slow, but otherwise the run went fine.

Thoughts: Probably my hardest run so far. Yesterday and this morning I had a sore right hamstring and it definitely affected my pace. On top of that the cold and wind had my lungs sounding like a early summer bog full of peepers. Here's hoping that tomorrow's 3 miler goes better.

Thoughts: Ah, a different distance. It's not all that different; it's not like it's a longer distance. But, a new distance freshens things up. First of all, it means a different route. Living on an island has a whole bunch of benefits, diverse running routes is not one of them. I swear I have exhausted every possible way to run 1.5 miles and end up close to my house. A two mile run means that I can extend those there-and-back routes by a quarter mile. Secondly, it means that I am making progress; getting closer to my goal.
Considering that my left knee and my left hip hurt, and I always run on the left side of the road, I decided to run on the right side to see if that would relieve any pain. I also did Ab Ripper X and some balancing on one foot to try to strengthen muscles around my problem joints. I did feel better today than I have in the past, but Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning is when I'm typically most sore.
