Good morning BT!

4:15am: 70 minute run with incline repeats in the middle
5:30am: 15 mins core

This may be silly to mention, but I reached a hair milestone today. I've had short hair for the last 23 years. I've tried growing it out several times but would get to the really bad stage and cut it again. I've always said I want a bouncy ponytail. Today while I was running I felt my little pigtails bounce against my neck. Celebrating the little things at 4:30am!

Have a great training day!

Congrats on your hair "milestone". Cute story.

No run this morning (swimming after work tonight), so slept in until 6:00AM.

40 min on the trainer before work. Felt great, now if work would only feel so good.

A quick blast on my spin bike last night while watching Rasing Hope. Trying to figure out how to maintain HR zones.

Half hour in the pool tonight while my boys are in swim lessons.

Tons of snow on the ground and more winter storms coming. Have not run in ages :-(

1 hour of weight lifting. Tonight was my 'heavy' session following the 5x5 plan. I've been at it for nearly 3 months. I hit a bench and squat PR...VERY HAPPY!

3000m of swimming, outdoors in icy drizzle. Got the lane to myself today! (Believe it or not, there are usually plenty of takers for the year-round outdoor pool!)

Not really. Pool is heated to 80 degrees. It's actually more comfortable swimming now than in the minimally heated pool in the summer. I do wear a shorty sleeveless wetsuit most of the time, though, as I have a racer back suit and my back gets kind of cold otherwise. Some people wear shorties or rash/surf shirts. Most just wear swimsuits. The big challenge is going out on deck, and getting out! (Fortunately, a poolside hot tub sweetens the deal.)

ETA I'm home in Oregon now, not in Saigon!
