AM: Ran by myself.  Just kept it easy.  Trying to get my legs back under me after a slow week last week.  Hope to be back to normal now after the marathon training run from Dec. 29th.

AM:  Easy 10 miles with Dan and Matt.  New out and back which was fun.  Roads were horrible, what else is new.  Winter running has been fun thus far.  Excited to see how I feel come Spring.

Did a fartlick today.  First 4 miles very easy.  Then did the next six miles with 9 different intervals in the mix from 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, 3/4 mile and one mile repeats with recovery the same in between.  Felt good to do some speed.  I kept all the intervals between 5:40 and 5:55 pace.  My right leg is still tender and sore.  Just feels heavy and exhausted.  Really fun to push through the mental battle with this scenario.  Hopefully makes me better come summer.

AM:  10 miles with Toni, Scott and Matt.  These guys are animals.  Can't wait to have 7:00 minute pace fell easier.  Getting there.  I fell again.  Imagine that... Always fun to run with our group.  Great bunch of guys.  Felt like Spring at 36 degrees.  Actually got really hot @ 8 mile mark and felt a little dehydrated.  Weird.  

 

PM:  5.62 @7:40 pace.  Got hungry and stopped to eat a PJ sandwich.  Always weird when you get hungry and run out of energy before you want to stop.  Legs are tired but good week so far.

Ran first 5 miles at 7:02 pace...right leg still feels tight and tender from marathon 10 days ago.  I finished the last few miles at 7:25 pace to take it easier.  

I feel heavy and just exhausted.  I feel my nutrition over the last few weeks is better but still no drop in weight.  I have a hard time being patient and want to feel faster but learning to enjoy the journey.  This is a big lifetime goal for me as I never want to burn out again in life. I still feel like I am improving even though some days are tougher mentally than others.

well...started what was going to be a LR, but at 4 miles felt exhausted and slower as the run progressed.  Gotta love days like these.  I decided to take the workout inside.  

 

Did 2.5 miles on the elyptical.  Then 100lbs. on bench 50 reps/3 sets.  Did 2.5 miles stair climbing.  Then 40 lbs. dumb bell press 12 reps/3sets.

 

Glad to get a good workout in even though I felt lame today.  I feel like I am recovering though and just listening to my body.
