Decided I need to start doing some good base building. 12 miles this morning in the rain. The 8.5 miles wthat I timed were at a 6:55 average pace. I have been doing too much running around 6:30 pace, when I should probably be slowing that down to around 6:45-7:00. 6:30 takes too much out of me.

PM: My walf wanted to go for a walk on the treadmill so I joined her and did 4 mire easy miles.

10 easy miles this afternoon. Yesterday's higher mileage left me feeling rather sore. Joints rather than muscles. I am having a rad time getting used to the cold. Finished the run with 6 strides of about 100 meters.

Today was the first snow run of the year. I love running in the snow. I love that feeling of the fresh snow crunching under the feet. I look forward to this first snow run all summer. Of course, I will be ready for the snow to go away soon.

AM: 4 miles in a few inches of new snow

PM: 8 miles on the treadmill at about 6:45 pace.

 

In the middle, ran the 3/4 of a mile to work bacause I was too lazy to scrape my windows. Or maybe every other day aI am lazy when I drive the short trip to work.

AM: 4 miles outside. It was the first day cold enough that I needed the ski mask. The pace was slow because I was sore/tired from yesterday, and the traction was really bad.

 

PM: more easy running

5 miles on the treadmill with 2 at my threshold pace of 5:45.  By the end of those 2 miles I was pretty tired. I have a long way to go.

I flew out to Denver today because I have a job interview tomorrow. For some stupid reason we interview for fellowships 18-20 months in advance.

Anyway, I did 7 miles in the afternoon in the snow and 5 miles on the evening on the hotel's treadmill.

Even though the temperature is colder out here, it feels better. Maybe it's partly due to the humidity, but it is definately helped by a lack of wind. In Chicago the wind is a factor on about 90% of runs.

I've got a lot of stuff going on in my life right now which is cutting into my time, energy and desire for running. I was in Utah and Colorado last week for job interviews, but never even got the chance to get together with my old running buddy Sasha. I'll probably just take things easy for the rest of the month before cranking up the intensity next year.

I've been taking things a lot easier the past few weeks, and especially last week when I was out of town and enjoying a cold. Now I am feeling better and ready to start back up again.

I am still out of town, so today was 10 easy miles in Michigan.

Goals for the coming year will be here soon.

Im still out of town, so I don't have my officiallog with me, but this run probably puts me at about 3400 miles for the year. When I get home I will have to make up a year end summary.

For now I can say that 2007 did not go as well as I hoped. No legitamite PR's. Very bad performances on the big races.

2008 will be better.
