AM - 6 Treadmill.  After the glutton last night, I worried a bit about this run.  But it was actually decent.  Felt fine throughout - maybe even better than a usual Monday morning run.  (Five Fingers 456.6)

afternoon - 10.5 4x1000.  Warmed up (and cooled down) with 2450.  Wasn't sure what to expect on 1000's.  Haven't done really any speed since hurting my calf back in December (but I had some decent sets of 800's before that), and I am not really a fan of 1000's - especially by myself and on the track.  But I tried to have a reasonable goal of 3:15 down to 3:10.  First one felt good and relaxed and I hit a 3:11 (2 min recovery), so I pushed out a little stronger on the next one and hit 3:08.  Still felt good and planned on doing 4 so I tried to repeat the same and hit a 3:07.  for number 4 I figured it would as good a time as any to push a little more and although I tightened up a little on the last 400, I hit a 3:05.  The best set of 1000's I have ever had.  Ran relaxed and smooth (for the most part) and gained some confidence that maybe I am in decent shape.  Ended with Molly's Mile pushing Laney like usual (when she doesn't run with me).  (Ohana racers 488.75)

There is no such thing as glutton for a guy that hits the road for as many miles as you do. As for me, I have cut my food intake in Half just to keep my figure. You are looking good for a great year of running. How is the track and x-country team looking for this spring and fall?

Up there you need the extra pounds or you won't make it through the winter!

Track is always a crap shoot - distance will be good, but can we get anyone else out?

XC should be looking pretty solid for boys and girls next year - a couple holes to fill, but I think some kids will step up.

I think of you even when I am not doing 1000s.
