Monday evening - 3.6 easy but quicker than the morning.
Tuesday AM - 8 miles with 10 x 2 minutes on, 1 minute off.
Wednesday AM - slow to rise this AM and fairly dead legged. 8 miles easy.
Wednesday PM - 3 miles. Felt a bit better but still worked.
Thursday - tired and slow to get up. 4.1 miles and that was it for the day before a full day at the office and traveling back to Colorado.
Friday - 5.3 with Greg in the AM
In the afternoon - 5.2, feeling pretty good. Headed off to Tahosa for the afternoon Okpik.
Okpik weekend is a bit of a no run weekend for me. It is such a butt kicker with the snow, the cold, the work, the altitude ...
So no miles on Saturday, the day to finish February (which was 296.7 miles, 39.83 hours, a very low 8600 plus feet (travel hit that hard), with 9 days of business travel, 1 day off from running - the previously mentioned Okpik).
Sunday - 10.1 miles. Not pretty but felt good mentally to get it done.
On the year - 573.7 miles, 77.97 hours and 18964 feet - all over 81 runs, 2 run days off. On whole I feel a good start to the year in prep for a Pikes run ... need to keep at the longer day every week or two and start to nudge up the vertical more. Not surprisingly, I feel fresher in a weird way when I run more - to some end. If I back the long day and a quality day, I tend to feel that way more over the next four or five days than if they are even spaced apart by an extra day. And I feel better on whole than I do with a down week (like this week - 55 miles).
Oh yeah, word came back that the polyp removed in the colonoscopy was benign.
