Base Training!

Monday: 75 minutes (10 mi?) on trails from Ward connecting through to Harold-Parker and back. Got pretty lost a couple times but luckily found my back in time for lunch before the evening shift. Whew... Good run!
Tuesday: 58 minutes (8 mi) easy morning run with a couple MVS runners. Headed out around 5:30am, a tad too early to feel normal, but still a nice run. 13 hours later I headed out for a quick run to and from the MVS practice (5.5 mi) for 13.5 on the day. 10 minute core plus some hip mobility exercises.
Wednesday: 55 minutes (8.25 mi) with Timmy Mallard romping on the hills of Pelham. What a great run. Some people just make great training partners and Tim is one of 'em.
Thursday: 3 easy am. busy couple days ahead of me going to fit in as much running as possible, but working all the way up to Christmas eve will make it tough! missed the evening run...
Friday: 5 easy at 10pm just trying to fit it in. Work at 8am tomorrow, tiring day.
Saturday: 0 off, Merry Christmas eve!...
Sunday: 11 steady with Alex in Marlborough. The hills around here are massive, but the reward is 2.5 miles of downhill cruising to cap off a good run. Last few miles were around 5:40 pace which feels pretty good on a 3-4% grade. We were throwing in surges here and there and the last one caused the plantar on my left foot to feel like it was on fire. Merry Christmas!!

45 miles total.
