Typical taper week.  Felt like cr@p every run only to have the legs feel light and snappy for the race.  Good timing!  Ran great the first 80% of the race, then pretty bad the last 20%.  Fair result considering where I’m at in my training.  Work to do!

Monday
5 miles
Saucony Peregrine

Hildebrand Ranch after work. Packed snow, but it was soft and I sunk 2-6 inches every step. Tough run.

Tuesday
7.4 miles
Saucony Peregrine

Very snowy. Easy tempo.

Also set a new best on my TRX. When I started I could only do 3 rounds with 5 reps of my exercises. This time I did 7 rounds of 7 reps. Definitely getting stronger. Feels good!
