6 miles this morning. Felt a bit rusty and legs a bit leaden, but not as bad as I thought it would be after a long weekend run. Beautiful out, sun rises now before 6 am. I like it A LOT.

Tired. Schedule called for 10 miles but didn't want to wake up at 5. Could've done 6 miles but decided to get another hour of sleep. These long run weekends wipe me out for days and I'm trying to be smarter than the last long run. It wiped out my next long run as I was just spent. Busy today at lunch otherwise I'd run then. I'll run tomorrow morning instead of resting. We'll see how that works.

Too tired for 5 am and 10 miles so slept until 5:45 and did 6. North wind, hands frozen from running into the wind on the way home. With gloves.

A chilly morning (43F, wind 9 mph), legs felt a bit leaden. Nearly turned around at 4 miles but I decided to take advice from Kam and picked up the pace a bit and it worked like a magic charm of goodness. Instead of plodding along I ran and went to my 5 mile point and turned around. Never did find my second gear but it was manageable.

Heading tonight to a soccer tournament a couple hours away in Sheridan WY so not sure how I'll get in a run tomorrow. We'll see.

Nada, zilch, zero. Drove to Sheridan WY last night for a soccer tournament today and we got in late, woke up early, did the soccer tournament thing in cold weather with snow and drizzling rain all day, then drove back and went straight to dinner with friends. Busy day, no chance to run.
