I think I can….I think I can…I think I can…
Wanted to get one last run for 2009. Main St route. All is pretty quick considering it is New Year’s Eve. Sidewalks/streets are kinda slick but passable.
Enjoy it folks. 
Shoes: New Balance 1011 with blue NB insoles.
Workout:
Back on the for the fab finish. The first 10 minutes at a good pace followed by a 5 minute cool down in stocking feet.
Avg Speed: 6.53 mph - Max Speed: 7.0 mile.
Shoes: New Balance 859 with regular insoles.
Workout:
Hill program. Up and down, up and down. Good sweat
Workout:
Let’s end the year with an indoor Run - Bike - Run!
Run - Part 1- 5 minute warm up in stocking feet, increasing speed. Finsh up with a 10 minute run at a decent tempo. Good run!
Avg. Speed: 5.99 mph - Max Speed: 7:00 mph
Shoes: New Balance 859 with regular insoles.
Workout:
Once again it’s kinda cold and winday to run outside so I thought I would do the treadmill thing and see if I could work on my speed as it is.
Not a bad run. I did about 1 miles at a pace of 8:20 mile and the last .25 mile at at pace of 8:00 mile. I might have been able to run another mile or so but it seemed like I might be developing a blister on my left foot so why risk it.
Warmup - 7:50 .64 mile stocking feet
Run - 26:49 3.01 miles
Cool Down - 7;11 .50 mile stocking feet
On the cool down I walked backwards for the first 2 minutes at a pace of 30:00/mile. Yes,walking backwards is easy on a normal surface but it was kinda strange to do it on the treadmill and not fall down. I don’t think I can do it at a quicker pace at this time. 
Tomorrow is the last workout of 2009!
Shoes: New Balance 859 with original inserts for these shoes.
Workout:
Temp about +5 outside and with the wind chill the temp is about -2 with freakin’ gusty winds so inside it must be I decree! I did a Cardio program and the target HR prescribed = 138.
10 minute warmup - building speed
40 minute workout - increased intensity
10 minute cool down - decreasing intensity
Target HR=138 Seat height 19.
Workout:
With the temp still in the 50’s it made sense to get a ride in before dark. The wid picked up a little so it wasn’t as nice as earlier but what the heck. Enjoy all!
Bike: Trek 720
Workout:
It’s sunny and 55 today. Winter??? Spring??? It’s just New England baby
It’s good to run in shorts outside again. Took the mp3 player and listened to the Patriots halftime and 3rd quarter during the run. Good time.
Avg Speed: 6.5 mph - Max Speed: 8.5 mph
Shoes: New Balance 1011 with blue NB insoles.
Workout:
Temp in the 40’s but it started to showery with some wind early in the ride. Both the bike and myself were wet (but happy!) It seemed to get dark earlier today combined with with the weather made it a shorter distance ride than I had planned. This also means more cleanup after the ride.
Still I’ll take it
Bike: Trek 720
Workout:
Dinner preparation is in progress so it was time to get a workout in before comany arrives. Burn a few calories so eating and drinking won’t cause an issue.
Temp in the 20’s but windy. It’s a lot colder biking in the cold as opposed to running. Next time I will dress warmer.
A Peaceful and Happy Christmas to all!
