Quality and A Day Off

February 17th (Monday): Taught in the morning. Shake for breakfast. Pasta and chicken for lunch. Down to Clifton Park for a little shopping. Relaxed. Lots of Nutella for fuel. Out for 8.5 miles (59:07) with Goup.

 Dinner from the night before. Avocado, spinach, onions, mushrooms with pasta and chicken.

February 18th (Tuesday): Same deal as last week. Hill workout/sprints with a couple Willow Street guys (Chuck Terry and Pat Cullen) at Pinehurst Avenue in Albany. 3+ mile warmup. 4 miles of work on the hill. Worked from 58 seconds down to 47 seconds. 3+ mile cooldown. 10.5 on the day.

Immediately over to Fleet Feet in Albany for lifting with the group. Lighter lifting because of DH Jones this weekend. Convinced Paley to hit up 5 Guys for dinner. Same burger I always get. Double patty with cheese. Mayo, ketchup, grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, hot sauce and BBQ sauce. Always hits the spot. Cherry Coke and raspberry Powerade to wash it all down.

Home to shower and head to bed by 10:30pm.

February 19th (Wednesday): 7+ miles ridiculously easy with Goup. 55:46 and it felt amazing. Enough said.

February 20th (Thursday): Up to Saratoga after work to met up with Megan for a run. Goup, Meg and I were all under-dressed for the rain run, but we survived. 7.5 miles (55+). Inside to warm it up and change it dry clothes. Flannel lined pants came in handy. Over to Irish Times for a beer and dinner.

 

Two eggs, bangers, Rasher bacon, black and white pudding, baked beans,  

grilled tomatoes and Irish soda bread. Washed down with a nut brown ale.

February 21th (Friday): Easy day at work. Pot luck lunch with lots of homemade items. Destroyed a couple plates. A recipe for rancid gas later in the evening.

 Spotted a Subaru Forester (STi version).
