| | 4 cross country miles with the family. Based on the next day soreness I'm definitely counting these miles. Just a few miles fewer than last year, but a solid base. I'll take it.

| | No miles today, but I did shovel my driveway for 2 1/2 hours so I got some aerobic and muscular gains. Beautiful white stuff.

| | 1 warmup mile at 10 minute pace, then 6 marathon pace miles at 7:24 pace, on the TM. First 3 miles at 2% incline, and in the MP miles I was struggling but not as badly as a couple weeks ago. I wanted to make it the full 6 miles without dying, so after my 2nd pace mile I dropped the incline to 1%, went 2 more miles, and dropped the incline to 0% the last 2 miles. I felt like I could have continued at that pace for a long time, so I'm really excited about this run!
I also feel pretty stupid about "trying for a BQ" last summer when I had hardly put in any pace miles. I thought about it and would do a couple here and there but nothing tough like today's workout, and I'm early into the training cycle. I have 8 more pace mile sessions, up to 10 miles, and I can already see how beneficial these will be. I still don't know if I really have a 3:14:59 in me just yet but this is giving me the best chance to date. I love the fitness gains I've seen in me the past 4 years. I love to run.

| | 8 miles on a step back week. Got out at 6:30 am as the temps would be dropping throughout the day and 20 degrees was as good as it would get. Thankfully no wind and it was a nice run. Paces: 9:34, 8:12, 8:34, 8:12, 8:00, 7:16, 7:11, 7:28 (including putting the ice spikes back on my shoes). AP: 8:03. | |
