AM:  10.5 miles from Scott's house with Mike, Spencer, and Scott. Warmed-up 4 miles. Then, did 4 mile tempo at 5:31 average. Did mainly low 5:30's and did the last one in 5:22. Quite a headwind. Felt extremely good, easy, and relaxed. I tweaked my hamstring a bit at the race on Saturday, so I've intentionally waited until that improved to do speed this week. It's not fully better, but it's improving. I felt like I could have kept up that tempo pace all day. The only reason I cut it to 4 miles was just to be careful with the hamstring. Wonderful to feel so good after not feeling good at all on Saturday. Scott did some tempo with pick-ups. He looks great and is ready for a great 5k on Saturday.

AM:  Long run:  easy 20 mile loop from my home, 3:00 am. I knew that getting it done crazy early would be my only option to run today as I would be hunting with my family. I definitely had to force myself out the door, but I'm sure glad I got it done. Weird weather but great temperature. At 3am it was clear (except for the inversion) and a balmy 32 degrees. At 5:30 am when I finished, it was unbelievably foggy and had cooled significantly, which made for icy roads. For the last few miles, I had to turn off my headlamp because it was so foggy (the light just made it worse). Just ran easy today to be careful with the ice, and because of the fact that I would be hunting. Was a good run, but my 2.5 hour run felt like it lasted 5 hours, probably because I did it alone and in the middle of the night. It sure is a lot more enjoyable doing longs runs with a group. My run was my warm-up for some serious climbing of snowy/icy mountains looking for cow elk. Had a blast and it was wonderful to be in clean air. I was a little nervous about how my legs would do hiking in those conditions after a long run, but my legs felt great. A good sign.
