Finally, I got to run this morning, I really wanted to get out for some runs the last few days but ever since we arrived in Wyoming the high temperature has been around 5, -5 in the mornings and I just didn't think it sounded like a good idea to go out in that. So I bought a 5 punch day pass to the local YMCA and woke up at 5:00 this morning and hit the treadmill. It felt really good to get the legs moving again, 4 days off of running is the longest I've taken off in about 2 years. I could tell that all of the Christmas candy I've been eating was taking it's toll, felt a bit out of it, and had stomach cramps but I was able to work it out. It's funny to see the looks people give you in a small town gym when your cranking 6:00 min/mil pace on their treadmill. :) Good run, hit the weight room for about 20 minutes and stretched out with weights a bit, really happy to finally be able to run again.

I made Britt open some of her Christmas presents last night, one was a pair of Nike Free's (which she told me not to get her) The other was a pair of Saucony trainers. (the ones she did want). The Free's were to big so she picked the Sauconys and woke up at 5:00am with me and went to the gym. We don't get to work out together often, the only reason staying at the inlaws is good, built in babysitter. Treadmill workout at the Y again, did incline repeats with 1 mile MP after each climb. My new Tuesday workout.

Britt was done running and I thought she wanted me to stop, so we went to the circuit weight room to lift, I wish I would have just ran an extra 3 miles instead but o'well.

I need to start following a marathon schedule just to slow me down a little bit. I have a hard time taking it easy on the treadmill if I don't have a paper telling me what to do. Decided to do a 9 mile run with 7 mile Tempo, so I warmed up for 2 ran my tempo run, after 5 miles I had to slow it down a bit, but still held on to 6:00 pace, and then did a 1 mile cool down just to make it a full hour.

OK, I feel really dumb right now. I just started a "plank" contest at the inlaws. I kept bugging my wife that she couldn't do a 2:00 minute plank, being the competitive person she is she got down and did a 5:05 just like that, no practice just did it. Then my 60 year old mother in law (yoga instructor, but still) did it for 5:24. And then not to be out done my 8 year old son did it for 6:07. I'm done with the plank forever.

| So, all pumped about her 5:05 plank last night (I'm never going to hear the end of that) Britt woke up and went to the YMCA with me this morning. I told her I was going to force myself to run easy today, so I started out at 7:00 pace, after 2 miles of that I decided if I was going to run slower I might as well throw some incline in, and then I decided if I was going to do incline I should do some fast striders after the hill and before I knew it, I was sweatin up a storm and didn't have a very easy run at all.
