| After a decent night's sleep, I was ready to get up around 7:00am and go for a run. It was cold, but sunny out. I listened to some music and just tried to clear my head. When all was said and done, I finished averaging a 10:29 pace. Outside of my nose running the entire time, I felt fine. |

| I was able to sleep in a tad later than normal for a running day. I went over to the gym and ran 6 miles in just under 59 minutes. Outside of a slight pain that I felt on the top of my knee, I felt fine. As of right now, I am assuming that it is nothing to worry about. After my run, I completed 6 sets of abdominal work. |

| I was back at the gym this morning after a day off from running yesterday. I was a bit tired, but felt alright. I think that I am still running on adrenaline after starting my new teaching gig the other day. |

| I was back at the gym this morning. I am finally starting to feel the fatigue from working a lot and not getting enough sleep. Fortunately, it did not affect my run as it went very well this morning. I felt good and kept my usual pace. |

| I was very tired this morning after completing my first week of work. We took it easy for the most part. I ran the first 8 1/4 miles with my friend and then completed the last 1 3/4 on my own. |

| It was so nice to get a full night's sleep. I worked when I first got up and then went for a run when I was done. I felt pretty good out there and just tried to relax and listen to my music. My average pace was a 10:26 per mile. |

| Even with the lack of sleep, I had a really good run this morning at the gym. I am assuming that part of it was because I thoroughly enjoyed watching SportsCenter during the duration. I finished in under 59 minutes. It was a good run. |

| I was able to get an extra hour of sleep more than I have been getting on the mornings that I run before work. I definitely felt a bit stronger. I ran a bit faster than normal and finished under 59 minutes. |

| It was cold this morning as temperatures were in the mid-20's when we started. My friend that I usually run with had to back out at the last minute, therefore, I ran with the faster people. Of course, this pushed me, which was a good thing. I ran the first 5 1/2 miles with them and then turned around as they were going longer. I was happy that I was able to maintain about a 9:30 pace once I was on my own. I finished the 11 miles in 1:47:+, which I was very happy about. This was a great way to start the weekend.

| After sleeping in and walking the dogs with my husband, I was finally able to get out on my run. It was cold, but not nearly as bad as yesterday. I put on my music and went for it. I ran my typical route to start, but then changed it up a bit. It worked out well as I wound up running 8 miles, one more that I had planned. My average pace was just over 10:30 minute miles. All is good! |

| With today being MLK day, I was able to sleep in and then go out for my run. It was cold and blah out, but I felt good. I left my music at home and just let my brain do its thing. I finished in under 1:02 for the first 6 miles, which I was happy about.

| I definitely felt the fatigue this morning. I made it through five miles and felt that it would be in my best interest to stop. I just never felt strong. |

| It was a mild morning, with temperatures in the low 50's. I ran the first 6 miles with my friend and then ran the last four on my run. I thought that I would make it through without being rained on, but I was hit with it during my last mile. Fortunately, I didn't wait to run later on in the day as the weather became worse. |

| It was cool and misty out this morning. I was able to get some rest before heading out. I left the music at home, due to the weather and just tried to enjoy myself. I was definitely slow, but did pick up the pace by the end. |

| I was tired from watching football last night, but did fine just the same. Outside of the JoePa death coverage, which was of course, quite sad, SportsCenter was very nice!

| It was cold this morning. Our run was slow as my friend was dealing with the death of a friend. This was a workout that was more about friendship than getting a great run. The good thing was that we did talk a lot and we ran. |

| I ran the second of my two courses that I run from home. I purposely ran it since it has a lot of hills. I am scheduled to run a hilly 5k next weekend and felt that I needed to get the work in. I averaged 10:30 minute miles throughout.
