Slept in this morning. Still a little sick but feeling better. Nice this afternoon. Did the same route as last Monday going to the Bloomington Loop and back. Not as much ice today which is encouraging. The warmer weather has melted most of it. 7:05/mile. Felt good to get out.

1.5 mile warm up before everyone showed up.

Ran with some guys this afternoon starting at the DC. Planned on starting the tempo and seeing how it went. Planned on just doing Tinman but hit the 4.5 miles at: 5:40, 5:36, 5:59 (hill and lots of ice on the trail/had to slow down), 5:42, and 5:39 for .5. Averaged 6:30/mile. Happy with the workout. Not the best but it is a good start heading into 2014. I really want to do my training and not worry too much about others. I need to get back to my roots on what helped me be successful in the past.

Did P90X with Katey this evening. Did one of the Lean workouts. Kicked my butt.

Ran 2 miles with Clyde before meeting up with the boys. We had Billy Boy and Steve with us this morning. Did the usual DC loop today from Clyde's house. Just another enjoyable run. 10.2 miles with the boys.

5 more miles this afternoon with Mark from the high school up along River Rd. Nice to have the company.

Really happy I have new shoes to run in. Feels so much better.

Really tired this morning so I slept in.

Went over to the DC and did mile repeats on the old section we did back in the summer of 2008. I have wanted to get down there and do these again. I only planned on doing 3 of them today but once I started warming up I changed my mind and did 4. I did just over 4 miles for a warm up and then did 4x1 mile w/2:30 minute recovery jog in between. Plan was to just hit anything under 5:30. Splits were: 5:21, 5:24, 5:22, and 5:17. I started under the highway and went towards Bloomington. Felt suprisingly good. Happy with today and would like to work up to about 8 of these in the next couple weeks. Cooled down back to the car.

6 easy miles over into Santa Clara this morning. Needed to get home to make breakfast for Katey due to our anniversary. 8 years today! Crazy.

Great run to end the week. Ran with the Circle and Steve this morning. Started at Clyde's house and then ran the new Southern Parkway. Decent loop but sad they built all over some sweet trails. Very interesting conversation about a wedding reception, two lanes of highway, Phil Robertson, and other very important information that is applicable to everyone. 6:46/mile. Good temps made for an enjoyable morning.

Happy with this week. Solid workouts. Just need to continue with this pattern.
