Thoughts: My legs felt pretty good for this run. I've been worried about my left foot for a few weeks now, but as my mileage tapers off in preparation for the marathon my foot is getting a better recovery between runs. Hopefully it will be 100% by May 20th.

Time/Distance/Pace: 42:00 - 4 miles - 10:30
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/84012240
Thoughts: This was supposed to be a 5 miler, but after skipping Tuesday's 9 mile run because my left foot hurt I decided to just run until my foot began to aggravate me again. It was for the best that I shortened this run because I hadn't laid out my clothes the night before so I was off to late start anyway. Needless to say, I'm concerned about being injured this late in my training and having to skip and shorten runs.

Time/Distance/Pace: 44:00 - 4.06 miles - 10:50
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/83362961
Thoughts: This run was during a complete downpour and I chose the wrong direction to run around the island so when I hit the front of the island I had the wind going against me. I had my iPhone in my pocket in a ziploc bag and it said I was done before I actually was and even tagged some people from my address book in the run. By the time that I was done the tendon to my big toe on my left foot was very sore, I'm hoping it doesn't hinder my training.

RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/79074318
Thoughts: I ran this faster than I should have, but I have always loved running in the rain. My Achilles loosened up pretty quickly, so this 4-miler was a breeze.

RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/77691071
Thoughts: My Achilles was sore and tight so I took it nice and slow. It loosened up a little bit after a mile or two but it never got comfortable to run on. I need to just keep exercising, stretching and icing it and hope it doesn't become a bigger issue.

RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/76407947
Thoughts: A rare evening run as I couldn't leave my son home alone early in the morning to do my run. It was a nice evening; it was almost warm, the sun was setting and there were peepers out (what are they doing out in March?). My legs felt decent; surprisingly recovered from the weekend, though my calves were a little tight.

Weather: Cold, Icy and Clear
Time/Distance/Pace: 1:01:58 - 4 miles - 15:29
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/75531307
Thoughts: My left Achilles has been giving me a hard time. It only pinches a little during long runs, but it's been "creaking" during the day. Besides being annoying, it worries me that it may lead to something worse if I don't take care of it. From what I've read most people suggest taking 2 weeks off running, but at this point I can't afford to do that. My miles are really ramping up and if I skip two weeks I will not be able to complete the runs the following week and would probably injure myself. So, I've added some stretches for my Achilles as well as eccentric heel raises and icing twice a day. I also walked these four miles instead of running. I'm hoping that the four days off from running will be enough to prevent injury from my 15 miler on Saturday. Good news though, my Brooks Green Silence showed up today. Oh, and 300 miles total training distance!

RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/68820649
Thoughts: Woot! Made it to day 100. Another decent run after a false start. After 2 seconds RunKeeper announced that I had run 3.01 miles, so I had to restart my run. I believe I am closing in on the halfway point of my training, I'm thinking that this Sunday with be the end of week 15 out of 30 weeks. That's pretty exciting.

Weather: Cool and Clear
Time/Distance/Pace: 39:32 - 4 miles - 9:53
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/67791520
Thoughts: An almost warm and mostly foggy morning made for a decent run. Luckily there was a bunch of rain the night before so the roads were mostly clear of snow and ice. The only exception was the dirt roads which for some reason are never sanded and are always hazardous. I nearly wasted my right ankle when turning on to my dirt road near the end of the run.

RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/60395277
Thoughts: The morning was cool and very windy, but there was a nice sunrise that made the morning worth it. The combination of cold and wind always affect my breathing and therefor my pace, but I was able to bring what was a 10 minute pace after the first mile down to a decent 9:46 pace. Hunting season is in full effect, I heard four gunshots during my run. Not the most settling sound to hear while you're out running.
