New Week

Sunday - 12/12
After a rough time last week I'm going to start this week off a little slow as I'm noticing slight tendinitis in my right knee. I went out this morning while everyone was still sleeping and turned over 13 miles in 1:30.

Monday - 12/13
Woke up early and planned to run before taking my uncle to the airport, however I was not feeling well at all. Not sure why, but as the day went on I felt better.

Tuesday - 12/14
Still not feeling well in the mornings.  2nd straight day I've gotten up with a slight fever and sore throat. I think running in the poor air pollution the last few weeks may have caught up to me.

Wednesday - 12/15
8 miles this morning - All 8 on the treadmill at 10% incline -  My first 5 I was able to stay at a 8.45 pace but with the lack of training over the last week and half I could't maintain the pace.  The last 3 ended up being over 9 minutes per mile.

Thursday - 12/16
Not much today - Had to be at work early but I got in a quick hour on the canal behind the condo.  Looking forward too Dreamy Draw in the morning, hopefully it's still rainy and overcast.

Friday - 12/17
Great weather today, cool and a little rainy. Got to run through mud puddles which made the run this morning fun, as that almost never happens in AZ.

8 miles 1:10 - knees felt pretty good, just a little sore on the downhills but not enough to effect my stride or footwork.

Saturday - 12/18
Kerry is leaving for Ohio later this afternoon to see her family for a week, so I took the morning to hang out with her.  Gotta keep my priorities! Stay warm baby!

Hit the treadmill this evening for 6 miles at 4% incline (45 minutes) - Heading up Tom's Thumb in the morning -
