A little unmotivated today.  Ran 5 miles at a fairly slow pace.  Nice day with cool etmps and light breezes.

Another fantastic day for running.  Ran across the railroad bridge and down Lindsay Blvd (including a loop through the RV park) to the hotels.  Looped the greenbelt and came back on the river.  Took an easy pace to start out the week

Ran the greenbelt on a beautiful day at noon.  Ran the first mile with a new coworker then picked it up a little for the rest of the run.

Nice 7 mile run around the river at noon.  Ran the first four with jtshad, then took a bathroom break while Jeff went on.  Temp -56 and breezy

Ran a 5K course marked off in Freeman park for a high school meet last week.  Ran it at an average pace with jtshad (very slow for him) to figure out the course markings and then ran it alone a second time a little faster.  Jeff went his normal fast pace and was just a smoke trail.

The course is fun, almost entirely on grass with a lot of twists and small hills.  My time on the second run was 22:51.  Now I have a time to beat before the markings fade away.

Another beautiful day, possibly the last one for a while if the forecasts hold true.  Ran the standard geenbelt loop at an average pace and then picked it up for the last mile.  This weather is spoiling me, a mild winter is in order this year.

Catch up post.  Ran a mile around Freeman and then tried the 5K course again with confidence that I would make much better time than Tuesday.  I am now convinced that my body only has one speed no matter how much energy I exhert.  I thought I was hitting it hard and felt exhausted at the end.  MY time?  22:47 -  A measly 4 seconds faster than the last time I ran it at what I thought was an easy pace. At least it was a little faster.

A liitle more motivated today, probably from reading Jeffs race report.  Tried to pick it up and run under 7:30 pace, though I have no proof other than it seemed faster than normal.  I need a higher gear.

Out at noon for a good run on another nice day.   Since discovering (actually I knew) that I have pathetic speed capability, I am trying to add some short speed runs (fartleks?) to my normal run.  I am probably not going any faster, but try to look like I am.  Temp - 64, no wind

Ran with a coworker down to Broadway at an easy pace.  I picked it up a little coming back and made an extra loop around Freeman Park   Too nice of a day - I really did not want to go back to work...

Made the greenbelt loop to Pancheri.  Ran 1 mile with Jeff (jtshad)and Jeff (Clydesdale Running), then another 4 with Jeff and the last mile without a Jeff.  Great day and Jeff(s)  are always good company.
