I was supossed to do a long bike ride today - weather was perfect, upper 50s sunny with no wind. Left to go home from the barn at 1pm with above weather conditions, was still nice at 1:30, went outside to go at 2pm and the temp had dropped, wind up a bit, and cloudy - nothing on the radar. Went out and 5 miles in it started to sprinkle. By mile 7 I turned around. The temp had dropped over 15 degrees in less than an hour, and no weather report had predicted it. So inside onto the treadmill for another 3 miles. Unplanned brick, but it went well.

I did a track workout today with single laps then double laps.
Um...ouch?! It's all good but at the time I was cursing whatever deity would listen to me.
I learned I need to know a lot more about pacing. I also need to relax more because with the "faster" mindset I think I either tighten my muscles up too much or something. I need to run like I always did, just a wee bit faster.
It was fun though in retrospect :D

At least you weren't cursing your coach. :p That's what I do.
I did 10 miles today as a split workout of 5 and 5. Boring track workouts but I needed the flat to make sure my legs were OK and recovered enough to start back in.

I got out this morning for a 3.7mi run. It was pretty good, a bit faster than last time.
I'm thinking about a race in late May that's a 4 miler. I've not yet run over 3.75 but I figure I've got lots of time to get comfortable at that distance.

5k yesterday, I've been doing all my running on the treadmill, so it was nice to get back on the road.

3.8 km. 32:00. 15:00 running, rest walking. Shins hurt but I just kept going. They feel fine right now.
