Mixed some pushups and crunches in with a 7 mile run on the tm. Felt like mixing things up some this morning. Happy New Year to all the bloggers out there.

It was frigid cold this morning....-1 so I opted for the tm....No brainer for sure. Legs felt great this morning and probably should have took advantage of that and ran I good tempo run....later I guess. No work today..lounge around and stay warm is the goal.

Attempted to run outside but between the slush and slipping I cut it short and finished off the run on the tm. 7 untimed minutes today.

Had some time between studying and felt like running more of a structured workout. 1 mile mp and 3.5 at threshold....seemed like between 5k and 10k pace...no time just by feel today...

Woke up to 1/2 foot of fresh snow this morning. That pretty much set me up for a tm run. Between Coldplay and 24 I managed to get through the workout.

Had to take a break from studies....4 plus miles in 29 minutes...

Easy miles after a busy day of work, school, and church stuff. Ran these miles on the tm which I am sad about....Temps are warming up and will be a nice day tomorrow. If I get my run in tomorrow it will have to be around 5:30am...we will see.

What a crappy week of running. Back muscles messed up and lots of discomort.... These 5 miles were pretty much walking on the tm with the incline at 15.....running is just too much jarring for the back..

Ten easy miles on the tm this morning at 5:45am..... Hopefully next week won't be so crazy...

Had a minute or two this evening to chew up.....Didn't run alot of mp miles this week. Ran three miles at threshold pace and felt good and tired.

Ran on the tm this morning due to 1 foot of snow....shoveled the driveway for .......longer than I wanted...Anyone know the conversion of miles ran to inches of snow shoveled? No, comments from the southern folks! You guys wouldn't have a clue. Plan on running after work this evening....

5 plus miles on the tm after work. Man....it was nasty wintery today in Idaho!
