Stars are prettier at 5 am

5am run first 28 degree run for the season (which is amazing) 9:52 pace

 

I was going for MP miles...but closest one I was 10 secs short. Oh well try again tomorrow!

I was exhausted yesterday. I didn't run b/c I had to finish a project and then go to work so I promised myself that I would wake up early and get in a run. Hopefully it makes me feel more energetic throughout the day.

 

WEll off to school then work..laters bloggers!

6:30am run 35 degrees 28 with the windchill

Great run. I was feeling alittle tight from the lunges and stuff from the other day but all in a all a good one. I ran the last .80 with the dogs (I wonder if I look like a crazy lady running with 3 dogs) LOL

Happy blogging!

6:40am 12 degrees with the windchill...this didn't hurt until i starting running towards the west...I really hate wind.

Intervals. I"m pretty sure my intervals were too long..and I definately went to fast on the first one b/c i had to walk during the slower time. I did a warm up then fast .25 and slow .40. I repeated this 5 times and then had a cool down.

I'll just give the pace for the .25--8.28, 10:14, 8:32, 10:47, 9:20

 

Should I shorten up the intervals? Would that make them more consistant? Or is consistancy not the name of the game with intervals?

7:30 am run 10:30 pace 15 degree windchill

I threw on another layer. Turned out to be too warm...so I guess yesterday being a tad chilly wasn't such a bad thing.

I came home and played fetch with the dogs while I did 3 sets of 15 squats. and lots of stretches. My knees don't hurt they just feel tired. I think I will soak in a warm bath...laters!

 

Oh yeah and it has been snowing on and off...nothing is sticking..but it is still cool to look at!
