1 mile on the TM. I'm so confused why I have dead legs. I didn't run the previous two days. What in the world? Ugh.

What a difference my legs felt from today vs yesterday. I dropped off the boys at seminary (their car is in the shop) and went for my run. I only had 35 minutes so I couldn't loaf. It felt great, and it was cold enough that it felt wonderful running (35F no wind).

My friends in the South may not comprehend how this is possible, but when I ran today at Noon it was 37 degrees. It felt great! We had a skiff of snow at my place early this morning as well.

The run went well. My legs still feel a bit heavy, but I think it's just because they haven't been used very much these past 9 months.

No watch so no idea of time, but lots of sweat so I worked hard enough.

Trail run at noon in great temps, cloudy skies. 48F with 7 mph wind. It felt great! No hat, no gloves, could've worn a short sleeve shirt. I changed at the Y then drove up to the rims as I wanted to run on trail all the way. Trail running is hard. Running is hard. I should run more.

I haven't done any crazy runs in a while, so I decided to change that. The 5K our group has been planning for months was this morning and I needed to be there at 6:30 to start setting up. I was bummed because I'd once again miss my long run. Or would I? If I woke up at 4 am I could run 10 miles before the 5K. So that's what I did, and so glad I did. I love my new Cascadia shoes, BTW. Love them!

AP: 8:43

And the race went really well. 165 registered, fewer than that ran, but everyone who did run really enjoyed it. Wahoo! Lots of work.
