This week's weather has finally improved to where I can consider it "spring" training. Temps in the 40s, almost 50 one day, although yesterday was back in the 30s. Here's a summary of the week so far:
Sunday: 5 miles, about 8:35/mile pace
Monday: weights and ab lounger
Tuesday: 4.3 miles, 8:38/mile (in the dark after dinner)
Wednesday: 4.5 miles, before dinner, in the light, averaged 8:01 per mile, including 4 fartleks of about 100 to 200 meters each. What a difference running before dinner, and with the sun out. Note that this run was still with full sweats (but not hat and gloves). This was encouraging, and gives me some sense that I didn't lose too much conditioning over the winter.
Hoping to run tonight before dinner also.

Spring continues to arrive here. 70 today and 79 tomorrow. Redbuds are blooming, bulbs are up, etc.
I've been running each day at the track--a little further each day. But still slow and w/o a watch so I don't have to know how slow.
