So tired

Haven't slept much in a couple days. Would have liked to hammer out a long run and tack on some mileage to January's total, but only had time/energy for a 5K on the river path. Weather is cold and windy. All the fair-weather weekend runners ("freakin' pansies" as Matt put it) have evaporated.

YTD for month one = 81mi. Hope to bump it up and reach 200mi by the end of February.

Pottruck

No lazy Sunday this week so easy Monday workout. Hit the gym and ran 3.12 treadmiles (har har) = 5K in 20:45.

YTD

Shakedown

Ran an easy 5mi with Dimitris, up to the first set of bridges after Boathouse Row and back. Saw Prof Michael Kearns at the turnaround.

YTD is to the Susquehanna!

Bookends

Yesterday ran 1mi at Hutch, then lifted arms again (wasn't sore from yesterday, too few reps for the weight I was doing.)

Today did another long run to round out the week. I ran the Falls Bridge loop = 11mi @ an easy, 7:45/mi pace.

YTD is through Lancaster, almost to banks of the Susquehanna. Then on to York!

Pottruck

Hot gym date. Ran for 25 minutes (3.75 miles) on the treadmill, lifted arms briefly. YTD

Brr!

Another cold one and not quite as fresh today. Just 4 miles, up to Leif and back. YTD is slowly closing in on Lancaster.

Lazy Sunday

...equals long run on Monday. Ran up to just past Strawberry Mansion bridge = ~9 1/3 miles at 7:25 pace. YTD

Lifting

Ran just enough to sweat, then JERM circuits.

Brr!!

Cold 7miler up to rowing shell and back. YTD is starting to get somewhere:

Pottruck

Rowing Shell

First long run of 2006, just under 7mi. Today's blue skies, clear sun, warm air added up to a day made for running; and running was made for days like today.

Pottruck

Only ran 2.5 miles, JERM circuits, still late for dinner :(

My favorite

Early morning Sunday river run. In a hurry so could only go up to Lief. About 3.5 miles?

Pottruck

late trip to gym. ran just enough to break a sweat (~10 minutes), then leg circuits.

Pottruck

45 minutes cardio

Pottruck

Ran a little (2mi) lifted a little (JERM's circuits)

Catching up

Put the computer away for Cara's visit to the Hood Canal. The running shoes went away too. Did the same run again once, played ultimate once, and did 35 minutes cardio at the Olympia YMCA. Otherwise sat on my butt.
