AM   started out a nice morning but ended up being very windy towards the end of the run,  I felt very good the entire run except for the last 3 miles as my glutes got tight and pace slowed down alot.

4 x 1200 x 400  speedwork  followed by Z2 for the remainder of the run.  Felt good and pace was better then I thought it was going to be.

AM   It was a fun run this morning, it was the first time I wore my hydration back-pack and I was able to run places I normally would not go. Started out at the Greenbelt and just headed out west of town and ran the farm roads and back.  I did kinda roll my ankle at mile 6 as It was pitch black and I did forget my head lamp and have been putting ice on it, should be fine

AM   Went to the gym for speedwork / tempo run this morning,  1 mile easy w/u and 5 x 2000 x 400 and a 1 mile easy c/d,  felt good still and decided to go into a tempo run for the last 4.75 miles.  This was a very good run for me as I was very surprised with how the HR was low and pace was up,  Ran next to Glen over the last few miles and it was very nice to catch up with him again and he has been running awesome and putting in some big miles.

AM   2 mile w/u - 11 mile tempo - 1 mile c/d

Went to the gym for this tempo run and I am very glad I did as it was just a little windy out and would not have been the best and or consistent pace.  I am very happy with pace and HR for my last longer tempo until Boston

AM   There was alot of snow comming down when I was to set out running this morning and I just went to the gym for my last long run before Boston, I was glad I did as i was not wanting to get wet and my feet wet and come down with something before we go and just made the best of it and it wasn't that bad.  Did a progressive run and every 5 miles I would up the pace and the last 3 miles was at MP.
