Monday 10 miles / 68:10 easy cruising. Feeling run down but glad to be on vacation!
Tuesday: 10.1 miles / 63:10 Still have a cold. Felt good to clear the sinuses but in hindsight it wasn't smart to run. 5:30s the last two miles. Drained after. Christmas party with my mom's side of the family in the evening!
Wednesday: 5.5 miles in 33:20 sneaked it in between festivities. Merry Christmas! Faster run but pretty short. Christmas dinner in Westford and then up to Hanover, NH for skiing tomorrow.
Thursday Off / Skied for 6 hours at Killington with former Dartmouth guy Alex Hall. I knew he could run but had no idea how quickly he skied! It took me a couple runs to remind the legs how to go fast enough to keep up. Super fun day: 36 miles of trails and 34,000' descended. Still sick!
Friday: Off - sick. Hung in with friends and made a fire and watched some old fashioned slides. Sounds really cliche, now that I think about it.
Saturday: Off - sick. Visited home for a the day, exchanged gifts with my dad, thought about running but was talked out of it. Back late to Andover.
Sunday: 12.4 / 1:18:04 with Tim. Steady cruising on roads all over Andover. Progressed from 7:10 down to 5:32 on the last mile. After a few days without running I couldn't resist. Felt good to run and I have some energy, but still pretty congested. Passed on the Sudafed today and was much more more clear-headed.
Summary: 38 miles on 4 days of running and 1 day of skiing which definitely worked the legs. Hopefully relaxing for the last couple days of vacation and some easy runs for the next couple days will work out. Drinking tons of tea and eating well is the current outlook for next week!
