3 easy miles on the treadmill then some strength training. Gotta make up for some seriously bad eating this weekend.

20 miles spin. Really hot in class ... like a sauna. Mirrors started fogging up. We were being punished because someone complained about being cold when they came in. Yes, I do have that kind of instructor. Not in the love part of the love / hate relationship we have for him.

Ran 4 on the treadmill. warmed up then ran 2 miles @ 9:05 pace with a 1/2 mile jog inbetween. Went well ... felt good.

Came home to find a SWATT team had busted a creepy, drug dealing neighbor. Missed the show but glad to see they are gone.

Ran 10 miles on the rail trail. Nice cloudy morning. I-pod was dead so just me and my thoughts (mostly prayers). Found a technique that helped me when I wanted to stop. I would visualize myself just running 50 feet ahead. When I reached that point, I would visualize the next 50 feet. Really helped me get through the last 2 miles. I kept telling myself that I came out here to conquer 10 miles ... not BE conquered.
