Notes
I route I wanted to do was still covered with ice on one of the minor roads so i had to adapt my run. It's annoying out here that they don't salt or sand the roads. Three inches of snow a week ago which iced most of the roads is still hanging around.
I ran the first 7 miles easy and then picked up the effort. Mile10 to 11.75 was very tough. Uphill and against the wind. A great workout. Everything is going well. I feel I can start adding some strides.
