    -9F!! Don't know how you do it!

    Feb 1 - 27 mile bike ride.
    Feb 2 - 3 miles
    Feb 3 - strength training
    Feb 4 - 4 miles - trainer recommended using my foam roller on my IT band -- so I did it twice yesterday and this morning before and after run. Seems to help! Pain is much less and I was able to run 4 miles without pain. My foam roller was happy to get some action as it had been sitting on the piano bench, ignored for months (except for when my daughter was home from college). :wink:

    My favorite running weather is when it's just cold enough to want gloves, but still warm enough to wear shorts and a short sleeved shirt. Today was perfect.

    02/03/2015 - 4.20 Miles - Cumulative 13.23 Miles

    @Wendy1Fl‌ - When is the race? There are many training plans available online to try but you might just try running some intervals, or running some part(s) of a regular run a bit faster than you normally run. Use your watch or a HR monitor to measure how you are doing. But only do this with one of your weekend runs... if you can run more often you could try it 2x/week.
    Bloomsday is Sunday, May 3rd. I'll be doing weekday runs as soon as there is daylight enough for them. I do have a HR monitor & kept it between 158 - 164 on that last run. What should I be aiming for? I will try intervals once for now once a week, thanks for the suggestion! How long should I have my intervals for starters?

    @ddmom0811 I have been going to the PT for an injury and when I told him it hurts on the outside of my knee down towards my outer calf he told me that is from weak hip muscles and has me doing exercises to strengthen my hip.

    No playing Hostess to 30 is not a rest day & you definitely earned that rest. Love the photo of the Sea turtle. Thanks for sharing your little corner of the world with us!
