| | Had a hard time deciding whether to run or spin. Decided to run to keep those muscles strong since I haven't had as much time to run. Signed up for a 10 miler in April. |

| | Beautiful day today. Hi temp around 40 degrees. Ran on Rosewick Road which has a couple of great hills. AP 9:40. Splits: 9:36, 9:52, 10:16 (ran in the woods and forgot to turn off my watch), 9:34, 9:28, 9:25, 9:49, 9:14. I hope I can get some shorter runs in the morning this week. I've got plenty of excuses but what I need is more motivation! Help! |

| | The freezing temperatures finally broke and it was a beautiful day. High today was around 52 degrees. Love it. Didn't get out until after 2:00 but it was worth it. Ran 8 miles on the rail trail. It was the perfect temperature. AP: 9:11 Splits: 9:28, 9:24, 9:00, 8:59, 9:17, 9:22, 9:15, 8:42. I pushed myself at the end to do the last mile under 9 minutes. Felt great. I think I just needed this break in the weather to re-motivate me. I think I might be getting spring fever. Stay away old man winter! |

| | Ran 2 miles in the hood. First time using my headlamp. Worked out just fine. Got to see the sunrise! Feels good to finally get my tired butt out of bed and get back on track. |

| | Got out this morning before the cold air and rain moved in. They are calling for snow tonight and tomorrow morning. I would love to sleep in! AP: 9:21. Fastest mile 8:59. Slowest mile 9:39. I got real nervous on the trail when a great dane and german shepherd were running toward me. Of course I didn't have my mace because dogs aren't normally a problem on the trail. I stopped running and put my arms on my hips to make myself seem larger. I started thinking about the dog whisperer and how he avoids eye contact so I decided I would not look them in the eye. I spotted this huge branch on the ground so I picked it up and started pushing in front of my as I proceeded toward the dogs. Their ears popped up like "what is this lady doing?" I kept the branch between us and they passed me by and I passed them only about 3 feet away from each other. They didn't follow me and still looked puzzled by the branch. Then I started thinking they must be on some dog adventure and really didn't have the time to mess with me (thank goodness). Regardless the sheer size of these dogs was intimidating. Next time I'll be sure to bring my mace no matter where I run. |
