Great hill workout, I got a lot out of myself today. I think I could have been faster on the tempo hills. Highlight of the workout was posture, I pumped the arms and kept my back straight the entire time. Proud of this workout. It was very cold today.

I did a lot of strength today to improve my core and upper body. I focused on maintaining perfect form and pumping the arms. The pool was closed today so I couldn't get my weekly swim in.

Great Tuesday workout. I got lots of sleep and was feeling very energetic for today. Highlight of the workout was deep water running with my hands out of the water. It was very challenging but not near as challenging as last time.

75 run

Good long run, I had no idea where I was going and put all my trust in paiges sense of direction.

quote- "If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't!
If you'd like to win, but you think you can't,
It's almost certain you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost;
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will;
It's all in the state of mind!

If you think you're outclassed, you are;
You've got to think high to rise.
You've got to be sure of yourself
Before you'll ever win the prize.

Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the person who thinks he can!
