239.5 when woke up From notes for Nov 25th run – 240 when woke up – 236 after run – total of 20 miles but was too cold and slippery in the park to do full run there – did 2 laps there and that took almost a full hour (58:30 – should have been…

240.5 in the morning – 239 after run Run was pretty good – 10 miles broke into two 5 mile chunks – total time approx 96 min 5 sec: First 5 miles was done in approx 47 min 13 seconds – very little walking but probably a fair bit of cheating on the treadmill. Second…

241.5 in the morning – 242 after evening run (second morning in a row at 241.5 so that seems to have stuck – we will see what tomorrow looks like with having had Wendy’s for supper) Sunday run – ran 13.2 in the park 2hrs 25 min – roads were still pretty bad and it…

243.5 when woke up 242 after run Did go to the park this morning but only ended up doing 6.6 miles instead of the 8.8 planned because the snow pack on the roads was kind of greasy – was like running on sand it took forever to run the laps – was probably 12-15 minutes…

245 – was 242 yesterday morning so today is a regression from yesterday and from last week. Did not run yesterday due to heavy snowfall (around 25cm or more) – took over an hour to shovel the drive and had to do it more than once. Ended up shepherding the kids for a few hours…

244 when woke up. (lowest this week so far was 243.5 when I woke up) It is 8am right now and we have a blizzard moving in – I was up around 6:30 to go to the park but higher winds and deep wind chill temperatures made me decide to hold off. I will run…

245 when woke up / 242 after run. Ran 17.6 miles today – 3 hrs 27.5 minutes – at 16 miles was 3 hrs and 3 minutes – for the half marathon distance it was 2 hrs 25 minutes (approx) – 11 miles was 2 hrs 1 min. For the 8.8 mile point I was…

246.5 when woke up – 244 after run Did 8.8 miles this morning in approx 1 hr 37 min but had to stop to tie my shoes twice on the first lap of 4 so should have been quicker – in total I was probably 3 minutes faster than the 8.8 last Saturday. I had…

244 in the morning. Running last night went surprisingly well – it took a bit initially to find how to run without hurting the knee but I got it sorted out and did 8 miles in approx 82 minutes doing 4 min run 1 min walk cycles. I had plenty of energy after I was…

248 this morning was 246 last Thursday morning Over the weekend I did 8.8 on Saturday but wasn’t able to run on Sunday due to a race in the park. Did 16 miles in just over 3 hours on Monday in the park but now I am having trouble with my right knee. I kind…
