Running (Easy snow run) 2:15:00 [1] 12.0 mi (11:15 / mi)
Super easy snow run...Meghan was really tired, so she just struggled with the run. We were breaking trail, and it was a bit exhausting...but I felt bad to keep running away from her. Oh well - my body is still pretty tired, so I didn't mind the easy pace. :)

Note
Took a day off - I was just so tired that I hung out at home...rested (which I said I did earlier this week, but I still didn't have a day off!)...it was great. Especially given yesterday's run, it was what was likely needed.

Running (Trail run) 1:00:00 [1] 6.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
Trail run w/ Brad...as usual, his pace is a bit faster than mine, and I did what I could to keep up without working too hard. The trails were covered in snow, so it was slushing around (and I wore shoes that had me skidding out pretty regularly!). Oh well, good run.
Walking (Run/walk) 1:30:00 [1] 6.0 mi (15:00 / mi)
This started as an easy run w/ Steph, but I got lightheaded about 2 miles into it, so we walked the rest of the way. I've never donated blood during training, so it's an experiment to figure out how much I can push my body and how it all goes...I guess doing run #2 the day after donating was too much. Oh well. Glad Steph was ok with a hike instead of a run. :)

Running (Easy run) 1:05:00 [1] 8.0 mi (8:07 / mi)
Easy run w/ Mike around Amherst...was super early and we were slogging around - but glad to get some time in.
Note
When my afternoon running plans got cancelled, I opted to donate blood instead. We'll see how that affects running over the next few days (if at all). It's been a while...
Considering the stressful week I've had, and limited sleep I've gotten...this might not be the training week I was hoping it would be. Bummer!!!

Running (Easy run) 1:00:00 [1] 7.0 mi (8:34 / mi)
Easy snow run w/ Abby - again, the roads were in rough shape, and I kept slipping around on black ice, but we did an hour around Holyoke.
Running (Easy run) 1:08:00 [1] 8.5 mi (8:00 / mi)
Easy run w/ Sarah around E'town...I needed to talk and vent and deal with things - thank goodness Sarah could do that for me!

Biking (Spin) 1:00:00 [1] 15.0 mi (4:00 / mi)
Spun on the trainer this morning. We have about 4 inches of fresh powder outside, so it was great to work up a sweat without playing in the weather. Calves still a bit tight.
Running (Easy snow run) 1:00:00 [1] 6.5 mi (9:14 / mi)
Easy snow run around S. Deerfield w/ Brian...it was slow going, but we wanted to at least get a bit of training and running in. We did what we could - and Brian didn't complain once (a small miracle).

Running (Easy run) 1:15:00 [1] 8.0 mi (9:22 / mi)
Easy run w/ Aaron S. and Brian around Sugarloaf...we basically played wherever we could that didn't have snow, so that limited us to just one side of the mountain. Oh well - was fun...but my calves were like super tight balls - surprisingly the rest of my body felt relatively ok.
