8 miles easy in my neighborhood very early before heading to the airport. Very, unseasonably warm weather this morning.

AM: TEMPO

I attempted (and somewhat failed) a tempo run this morning. I wanted to go 5-6 miles at 5:05 pace. But with this being my first night in the Eastern Time Zone and the travel still in my legs, I just didn't have it this morning. I ended up with 4 miles: 5:03 5:04 5:06 5:09. Some nice reverse progression. Oh well, I should be acclimated to the new time zone here shortly.

PM: We took a break for dinner and I wasn't too hungry so I got a second run in on the hotel treadmill. I felt substantially better than this morning and got another 9 miles in with the last 3 at 5:36 5:17 and 5:00.

AM: AEROBIC BUILDER (PROGRESSION)

I did an 8-mile AB on the hotel treadmill at a 1% incline, since I haven't found a suitable route for fast, safe running yet (the roads around the hotel are narrow with no shoulder or sidewalk). Splits were: 525 525 521 518 514 512 505 500.

PM: Got another break and snuck in a quick run before meeting back up. 6 miles easy outside.

8 miles easy. It's getting harder to wake up each morning and I hit snooze a few too many times to run any further than this.

9.1 miles easy on some slippery, icy roads. I couldn't get up early enough to run further; I tried, but failed.
