AM - easy 3 miles - a bit sluggish this morning.

PM - 8 miles on the treadmill - in just under an hour - average HR under 70% - starting to feel like I am getting some benefit from the aerobic base-building.

PM - lunchtime on the treadmill - was getting a bit bored with the aerobic build-up and it felt like it was time for a workout.  So I did 8 x 400 @ 80 sec w/ full recovery - along with a 2 mile w/up and c/d.  Good workout - never maxed out on the HR as it is just not enough time on the reps to do so.  Felt good to work on some turn over and efficiency.

AM - verrry easy 4 mile shake out run.  Moon was quite bright this morning - out the door by 5:15 am.

PM - got in a relaxing 6 miles after work with Richie in a run around the Carillon office park.

Too tired or lazy to run before work this morning - so hit the treadmill at lunch with just enough time to squeeze in 6 miles.  Broke-in some new Gel-Nimbus 13's which were delivered last night.  Hope to get a second run in later after work.

PM - 20 miles on the treadmill - too windy and cold for this Florida boy to run outdoors this afternoon.
