12 miles on the Nike campus.
Last 6 miles @ 39 minutes.
I feel that these runs are getting easier.
Better aerobic strength will allow me to tap
into my speed at the end of my race.
If I don't have the aerobic strength,
then access to speed is denied.

12 mile run 7:00 am
Today I got up early on a beautiful sunny but icy cold morning and ran 12 miles on the Nike campus. I took the day off from running yesterday because of a busy schedule.
Later in the day, I decided to a hill workout. 5x200m hills at 80-90% effort.
I also did a 2 mile warmup and 1 mile cool down. Total of about 15 miles today.
I also did 100 sit ups and 20 pullups.
Now time for 4 hours of practicing the piano.

This morning I was a little sore from the workout yesterday. I decided to do an easy 8 mile run on the wildwood trail starting at the world forestry center. Over the last 20 years I have run thousands of miles on these trails.
Tonight I am playing a gig in the Pearl district.

8 mile am run and 4 mile pm run
Ran a good 8 mile run on the nike campus. I did a bunch of surges on the small hills that are on this trail. I plan to do another run tonight after I get rested and refueled.
Ran up a hill with a 1000 foot climb. Did some hard surges for extra aerobic work.
I also have been drinking a lot of Aloe Vera juice.

begin racing again in May and hopefully peak in July.
Yesterday was 10 miles on the nike campus.
30 pullups, 3 minute plank
Today am 4 miles ending with 5 minute mile on the track
pm 6 miles on the Nike campus.
