Made it two pretty long runs this weekend and am quite pleased with the way my legs feel. I'm going to keep up the mileage through Wednesday and then come down a bit for the race next Sunday. Hopefully I can shake off the rust and get a nice feel for how the training is actually going.

Out alone on the creek. Today I was incredibly tired but my body felt pretty good ... go figure.

3 x 9 minutes with 2 minutes rest. I was super tired again today but had a really good workout. Covered much more distance than last time I did this workout so that is a good thing.

Did a run for relief to benefit Haiti today. Managed 28 laps in the 40 minutes ... more than I wanted but its for a good cause. Ended up at $516 so thats a good thing.

8 x 300 meters on the track plus warm up and cool down. I haven't run that kind of speed for a while so it was tough but my legs recovered really quickly. I'm starting to look forward to the race this weekend.

Ran just under an hour today. Race day on Sunday but this isn't really the focus race. Hopefully I can shake the rust off a bit.

Short run just to get the blood flowing. We will see tomorrow how things are going.
