Icy roads forced me to the treadmill. 3m warmup. 3.1m @ 11mph (5:27) with 0.5 incline. 2m cool down.

Felt off. I wanted to go further but the legs disagreed.

More snow. More treadmill. Legs felt like crap at the start. Mile 7 flipped a magic switch and they felt great afterwards.

Body clock woke me up at 5am. 25 degrees, snowing, 2 inches of new snow, no wind. I didn't have (mentally) another TM run in me so I decided to brave the elements. It was beautiful; like running on a blanket the whole way. A little slippery but not bad.

 

PM: 6 miles on the TM at the gym. 1 a little faster just to break things up.

Back to the gym and to the dreadmill. Warm up was a little sluggish. By 3 I was feeling better and by 4 I was feeling good.

4m warm up
2m @ 12mph 
1m @ 9mph
1m @ 12mph
2m cooldown

I would have loved to do 3 in a row but it wasn't happening. Maybe some day.

Early morning run with Reed and Toni. 20°. Good times. Legs were pretty beat after the workout yesterday but by the end of the run they felt much better.

Long run with Matt, Scott, Fritz, Toni, Kevin, Walter and Dan. Good steady pace. About 20 degrees warm. Felt good. Had some IT band trouble the last 3 but after some therapy it feels a lot better than it did last week.
