 | Trail/Road Run 50:32 [3] 6.5 mi (7:46 / mi) | |
| ahr:142 max:153 |
| Mill River loop from home, 20's. A good time for this loop, but the pace used to be better before the era of Forerunner honesty. 23:10, 34:40. |

Saturday Jan 20 |
 | Track 7:13 [3] 1.0 mi (7:12 / mi) | |
| |
| With Adam. Plan was to pace Adam to a sub-7 but he was complaining a lot before and during the first couple laps so I backed way off and we did the first half in 3:48. Then, after a after a slow fifth lap in :59 he said he wanted to pick it up so we finished with laps of 49, 49, 46. Breaking 7 wouldn't be a problem for him in a race, but he always avoids racing a mile and so has never done it. |
 | Track 6:20 [4] 1.0 mi (6:19 / mi) | |
| |
| Then I did a faster mile on my own. This felt very controlled and well under race pace. And the over-the-counter orthotics I got today definitely helped with my toe pain; in fact I didn't feel anything until the cooldown. |
 | Track 14:00 [2] 1.75 mi (7:59 / mi) | |
| |
| Before and after. |
 | squash 20:00 [3] | |
| |
| Got in three good games of squash after running and before getting kicked out of the gym. |
Thursday Jan 18 |
 | Road Run 45:46 [3] 5.9 mi (7:45 / mi) | |
| |
| Sand Hill loop from UMass. A decent effort; I had to wear my worn-out trail shoes to avoid pain from my neuroma. I'm seeing a foot doctor on Saturday to try to get proper orthotics. 7:49, 7:48, 9:52, 7:58, 4:35, 7:43. |

Tuesday Jan 16 |
 | Trail Run 48:57 [3] 5.5 mi (8:54 / mi) | |
| |
| Juggler. Trail mostly under water between the power line and the field. Easy pace going out, harder coming back. My Achilles seems better (hooray!), but my left quad is sore again (boohoo!). And I have a blister from Sunday on my right foot the size of Australia. 8:32, 10:08, 7:11 (25:52), 6:44, 9:02, 7:17 (23:05). |
