Just a regular run... nothing to much to say about it. Kept myself to about a 9:20 pace. Really tired now, feeling kind of run down. Hope to get a good nights sleep.

Had to stay a bit late at work so that ment I was on the treadmill again! It was not a good run... between the PF in my left heel and all my tummy trouble during the run I was happy to get the 6 miles finished. Got home and the computer is not working right... So I posting from work. I will be behind a day for a while until I can get my computer worked on.

Had a nice... all be it slow run out in the cold night. The first three miles were lovely the sun was setting and the moutains snow looked pink... I had the entire parkway to muself!! Beautiful!! I had my headlight so when I was out on the streets I felt a bit better knowing that I could see a bit better but most of all cars would see me better. I ran around the city to get a few more miles in. Ran around the Chistmas lights in the city park, it was pretty fun!

The one thing about running outside in conditions like this is that I never feel relaxed. Because of the slippy conditions you are always trying to make sure you don't fall. I find myself tensing up all over.

Laps: 8:59, 9:27, 9:31, 9:28, 9:16, 9:10, 9:11 (soooo sloooowww)

** On a side note, I woke this morning (Thurs.) with a sore throat! I never get sick! I can't believe it. It's not too bad, I will see how it feels after work.

Not feeling too good... still have a sore throat, so I decided not to run outside. I also didn't have it in me to do my speed/circuit workout. I did do a simple progression run, started at 9:40 for a mile the 9:18 for a mile the 9:00 for a mile. Then I had to stop and potty. Back on the TM 9:00 for a mile, 8:30 for a mile the 8:00 for a mile. Then ran on the indoor track for a mile barfoot... very slow.

The plan is to run on my lunch break today (Friday). Still not feeling very well and I didn't sleep much last night. My Mother-in-law is in the hospital (She lives with us). Then hubby's snoring kept me awake most the night. I'll see how I feel in a few hours.

Got out at lunch time to a balmy 20 degrees. It really was not too bad, the path was about 97% clear, with only patchy ice on the bridges and shady area. I had a couple of slips but no falls!! A bit of tummy trouble on the way back and all the potty are locked on the path. I don't understand why they do this! Not much coverage with the bushes all bare but thank heavens there were not many people down there.

Sue has already bailed on me for tomorrow. I will see how I feel in the morning as to what I’m up for doing. It’s supposed to start snowing tonight and not stop until Monday. I'm sure all the skiers and in heaven.

Laps: 9:45, 8:56, 8:50, 9:17, 9:03, 10:48 (I struggled to get back up the steep hill to my work. I was slippery) .07 8:31
