I was in the Smoky Mountains hiking the last three days and then today had to leave on a quick trip to Syracuse, NY.  I was able to get a quick run in on the TM before a dinner meeting.  I felt good and ran easy.  The legs felt better than expected after hiking in the mountains.  I don't get a lot of hills in Indiana so the legs are not usually used to going up but felt good.  Had a good time hiking.  There was snow at the higher elevations which was cool.  It was the first time I had done much hiking in the snow so was glad it worked out.  Now need to get back into the running mode.

Syracuse, NY:  It was raining this morning so stayed in and ran on the hotel TM.  I was tired this morning for some reason and had a hard time getting going.  I had planned on doing a tempo this morning but I just never could get going and decided to wait.  Instead I just took it easy.  I also had to cut the run short because of meetings.

Back in Indiana this morning and it was very nice.  It was in the mid 40's with just a light wind.  I felt pretty good this morning but still started off real slow just to get warmed up.  I felt better as I went along and toward the end added in 8 x 100m strides.  Those were good and it felt good to get the legs moving faster.

Had a lot of family activites today and just never got any time to get out.  Disappointed that I didn't get the run in but had a good day with the family.
