Did my Monday treadmill tempo workout. It was my best yet since I've been doing treadmill workouts. As always, my times probably aren't equivalent to running on the road, but compared to myself it was an improvement to be happy about.

9.51 miles in 1 hour. 0.5 mile cooldown.

My neighbor started chatting with me for about 10 minutes toward the end, so that increased the difficulty. :)

5.5 miles in 41:00. Felt really good once I got going. It's fun to see how a run that used to be really difficult now is enjoyable.

Ran a little loop around my neighborhood just so I could say I ran. It got too late after visiting family to find out where my bro is going on his mission: Ukraine!

Did my weekly hill workout on the treadmill. 7:00 pace. 10 miles total running, 8.6 of it as hills. I was able to run the first 3.5 miles at Level 7, but then I was dead and moved it down to Level 1. My legs felt heavy today. The treadmill also gave me a harder than normal random hill workout. Well, 27 miles so far this week. Hopefully I can still get it up to 60. We'll see.

I was getting ready to go running this afternoon, and my little girl overheard it. She insisted on going with me. So we went out, and I was thinking it would be a two mile run. We got out a mile, and I asked "more running?" She immediately said, "yah," so we kept going. When we were 3 miles away from home, she said, "Home. Mommy." So we turned around. After about a quarter mile she wanted to get out and play in a puddle, so I let her. And she wanted to play in the snow, so I let her. Then she didn't want to get back in, so I had to bribe her with candy. Then she was happy the rest of the way because I let her hold a snowball, which of course she decided to munch on. It was 6 miles of running at 8:31 pace.

Went out to Antelope Island for a training run with some people who are doing the race. I started out feeling pretty good but then totally tanked the last 6 miles. I averaged 9:30 miles for the 19 miles. I just wasn't feeling strong at all and wanted to walk a few times. 

I'm really glad to have run out there because now I have a more realistic expectation on what kind of pace I can run on that surface. I was thinking I could do a little faster today than I did. So that's good information to have. The island is absolutely gorgeous, and the weather was beautiful this morning.

52 miles for the week. Not as many as I planned, but oh well. Other things to do.
