Post-Martin Luther King Junior Day Blogging Special
Well shucks. I just spent an hour on an informative, quality blog post, only to have my screen freeze and lose the entire mess as I posted. I will proceed with an abbreviated version with all apoly-ologies:
Running journal, ahoy!
Tues, 1.18.05
58 min, 9 miles. Weather dude forbid staying outdoors more than 20min. I scoff at the measly 18 degrees, chuckle at 20 mph winds, and make rude gestures at Old Man Winter. I am a straight-up winter running super-stud. Ran along the Radnor bike path with like 10 layers on, putting off workout for another day.
Mon. 1.17.05
67.5 min, 10.5 miles. Ran around my parents' home. I charged through trails that had a light coating of snow. Also lifted weights. Cruised back to Bryn Mawr in new ride.
Weekly Total: 72.5 miles in singles, 2 good workouts. Achilles still quite sore, esp. on easy days. Indoor season questionable right now. Difficult to get motivated with sore achilles and a team that doesn't do any trips during the winter. We shall see, I am in ok shape.
Sun. 1.16.05
85 min, 12.5 miles. Nice relaxed distance on the icy trails. Achilles still sore, so the uphills were uncomfortable. Took my parents for a test drive in my new vehicle, where my dad demonstrated the definition of a back-seat driver. Also watched the Eagles look gooooood in whipping Moss and the Vikings, sitting around in wet running stuff after my run. E-A-G-L-E-S, EAGLES!
Sat. 1.15.05
52min, 7.5 miles. Relaxed run, I was starving. Ran after inking a deal for my new auto, right before going back to pick it up. Had to squeeze this one in. Watched Star Wars later that night...too bad I didn't know all the Jedi mind tricks prior to my negotiation with the used car salesman.
Fri. 1.14.05
14 min warmup
45:32, 8 mile tempo run, hilly roads by my home, avg. 177 bpm. Tough run, esp. due to hills. Dreading the workout all day, great to get it done and done decently, about 5:41 pace.
12 min, 1.5 cooldown. Total 11.5 miles.
Thurs. 1.13.05
68 min, 10.5 miles. Ran around icy hilly trails. Did sprint drills and strides afterwards. The horses next door were checking me out. I challenged them to race, and they backed down. Home of Smarty Jones, my bottom.
Wed. 1.12.05
70 min, 10 miles nice and easy. Went car shopping with me mum, acutally maybe this was Thurs. I liked a little red sportscar, but nobody else did.
Tues. 1.11.05
2.5 mile warmup, to Nova Track. 3X2k ins and outs, alternating 200m.
33, 44.2, 33, 41.5, 32.6, 40.5, 33.8, 43.97, 33.5, 40.5
5min
32.49, 41.67, 33.1, 42.79, 32.26, 42.5, 33.22, 42.96, 32.2, 41.2
5min
31.1, 43.5, 33.7, 41.9, 32.7, 42.1, 33.2, 44.3, 31.86, 41.53

Nice workout. Kept "slower" 200s moving better this week.
