I have my tempo run this morning- I think I’m going to cut it down to 20 minutes with a mile warm-up, 20 minute tempo, then meet my girlfriends to run for 45 minutes.

Yesterday I did my long run with Steph, we did 14 miles. I didn’t want to do the hills of Westminster, but we did. Mental note: when it gets warmer outside I’ve got to do my long runs on the flat surface and do them much faster. On the hills, you just can’t go that fast and the combination of the cold weather and the hills is demoralizing, and I’m running slower each day…not the best venue to run fast and I can tell from my legs that they’re getting lethargic and not doing well becuase I’m not getting all the junk out of them and just not doing my recovery runs fast enough… this morning should be fun though, my friend Tuba is back from being out of town and its always fun running with her!

Rest of today’s schedule: Pilates this afternoon followed by my 2nd run.
