Monday, March 19 - Rest

This is the busy season at work so Monday's rest was definitely appreciated. I still managed to squeeze in my normal strength workout and am really starting to love the single-leg deadlifts.

Tuesday, March 20 - Planned 5 Miles

Ran 5.01 Miles in 43:04 at an 8:35 pace

The hardest part of this run was getting out the door after an 11-hour workday so I wasn't actually out for my run until just before 9 pm. It was a little warm as I was overdressed in anticipation of the upcoming nor'easter. The start of the run was a little slower than I'd like but I was able to settle into a nice pace. Overall I'm just glad I was able to motivate myself so late and still log a pretty solid run.

Wednesday, March 21 - Planned 8 Miles

I'm pretty disappointed that I didn't get out for a run on Wednesday. I knew there was no way I would run 8 miles on a treadmill, and looking at the forecast, I didn't think it was wise to head out for a run. Unfortunately, all day, the weather report was warning that any minute, the worst part of the latest nor'easter would hit, and the last thing I wanted was to get stuck outside when the snow really started to fall. I have warm gear but not waterproof warm gear so heavy snow usually leads to frozen extremities. What actually happened was mostly flurries until Wednesday evening when the real snow really started.
