No official run yesterday for Xmas, so a bunch of us RoadRunners met and ran a very hill-intensive 10 mile run on Xmas Eve in 1:24:05.

Today I did 6.2 miles in 51:03. Shinsplint situation seems to be almost resolved.

A quick 6.5 mile run yesterday in 51 minutes to Dave's place to play Dominant Species.

Today my pace group met unofficially to do 12 miles, the first half of which were uphill! Yikes! Did it in 1:41.

Sunday's run was a good 6 mile workout, with each mile faster than the one before. Average pace was 7:50 per mile.

About 4 miles today, but the point of today was cross training. Ran to the park by my place and did the exercise circuit in the park.

Wow - some workout today. Did about 1/2 mile warm-up, then did 4 X 6:30 min at 10K pace or faster (tried to keep it at or under 7 minute mile pace) with 3:30 easy recovery after each one, then 1/2 mile cool-down. Tiring, but felt really good afterward!

Forgot to log a couple workouts, but tonight's was a tough one. Ran down to the Strand on the Beach, then did 4 X 7:00 intervals at 5K pace (first three were about a 6:50 pace, last was a little over 7), followed by 4 X 3:00 easy pace. Whew!

LA 13.1 Half Marathon today. Not a very interesting course, but well-organized and fun. Goal was to break 1:45, and I ended up doing 1:39:14 (unofficially). Hoody hoo!
