Hmm... Immediate Goals? Well, I'm doing a January challenge of 12K yds swimming, and would love to work more on my running this month... Biggest goal will be following me set plan for January (which I'll commit to on Mon - see blog)... Tri Training aside, my legs are going to burn as I attempt to ski 100K vertical feet in one month... and be skiing off of grooms by the end of the clinic I'm taking this month (yea for me I'm skipping work every Th in Jan to attend a women's ski clinic)....

I also signed up for the 25lb in 25wk challenge, so with that in mind hopefully by the end of the month I will be 4 to 5 lbs less.

Remember, if we set small goals, we shall achieve big obstacles.

Those are awesome goals and definitely doable. Your lucky to have skiing in your training schedule.

Yeah, and to think, I don't have to spend 3 hours in traffic trying to get back to the FrontRange (or so that was what it took the last time hubby and sis skiied Copper while we were in Denver) I love my local canyons

A few days ago, I-70 was closed for almost 24 hours and thousands of people were stranded..... Lucky you.

Yeah, I remember the Thanksgiving the boulder fell in Glenwood Canyon(3 years ago I think), so we came home via I-80, got stuck in Evanston overnight. Nothing worse than being close enough to home to watch the local news, but far enough, that you're just not getting there. Also been stuck in Grand Junction heading east in March.

Sorry guys, but I've been out of town at a conference. I did manage to eat fairly healthy and did run while I was there, so I am down a couple of pounds too. But 10? That's freakin' awesome. You'll have to share your secrets with us.

It has been a crazy week. With school and my Chargers winning their second playoff game in a row. I am down in San Diego right now so my routine is kind of a mess, but I will be back at school tomorrow and ready to get back to work.

I did have a question though, what are your thoughts on walking/running on a hill versus flat ground?

I did have a question though, what are your thoughts on walking/running on a hill versus flat ground?

In my personal experience, I like to vary my workouts by pace as well as by terrain. Living in Colorado, we don't have too many pancake flat courses, but I do have a couple that I like to run. So, some days I may do a long, slow flattish run, while others may be a short, tempo paced hilly run. Mixing up your workouts will help you from getting burned out on the same run day after day. It will also help you gain strength. Hill repeats are a great way to improve your running power.

Hill work will take more out of you, so remember to rest accordingly. I don't know if I answered your question, so let me know if you have something more specific.

I would highly recommend putting some hill work into your running program.
