Sunday, January 16, 2011 -

AM - 4 miles @ 6:30 mile pace.  Well by far the coldest day I have ran outside this winter.  It was definitely sub 10 degrees and I was happy to just get back inside after this run.

PM - 5 miles like this - 2 miles @ 6:30 pace and then the final 3 miles @ 6:20 pace.  I did this run on the treadmill and it felt great.  Felt recovered and very relaxed for this run.  I did weights afterwards to keep my strength up.

Talk to you tomorrow.
