I went to class last night.  I was really early, so I sat down to look at assignments and such.  Then I realized that I actually have class next weekend.

I'm stooopid.  But I was glad that I had worked out in the morning because I was exhausted.  And then it meant I could get a long run in today!

We got some snow last night, and when we went to breakfast in the morning, I figured it would be a treadmill day.  So after lunch I got ready to go to the gym, backed the car out, and rejoiced because it was sunny and the sidewalks were relatively clear.  So I went back upstairs and changed into outside running stuff!  Yay!

This run was pretty good.  There were still areas where I was running through snow or on grass, but the snow was rather slushy and not real slippery.  Just some areas of slow going.  I tried to pick up the pace a little in the last mile, but overall my splits were pretty steady.

Avg: 8:48.  9:07, 8:57, 8:46, 8:52, 8:55, 8:52, 8;43, 8:54, 8:41, 8:54, 8:43, 8:47, 8:49, 8:22, .12@7:53.

NICE long run and you are totally steady on your splits--nice strong finish too! I think you will quite easily meet your 1/2 marathon pace goal come May!

What a wonderful surprise to be able to get out and run outside when you weren't expecting it. And very nice splits as well.

Great splits. I a glad you were able to run outside, it is always better outside.
