LOS FELIZ -- First easy going, easy easy run in a few weeks. Routine. Good. Not exceptional. Comfortable. Thank goodness. Good sunny and somewhat chilly day out. Wonderful.

SILVER LAKE -- Nice, easy go around the reservoir. Absolutely stunning morning weather. Sky as blue as they come. Chilly in the shadows. Huggy in the sun. Boom.

LOS FELIZ -- got out in first real attempt to get a decent pace together. Not bad...probably low eights. More than a full minute faster than Monday. So that's good. Think we can fully restart here.

LOS FELIZ -- Watched the Michael Jordan 30for30 about his run at baseball. And then got enough wind in the sails to get a basic loop in. Great weather. Kinda smoggy. Nice run all in all. Just redrafting the old engine. It burns hot and stinky like shaq diesel.

LOS FELIZ -- Got out in the AM for the first decent run since the last time around the reservoir like two weeks ago. Easy little pace of 8:30m/m and basically just tried to keep it knotted up from start to finish. Great weather. This is such a great place to run.

Form was pretty solid. Should remember to relax legs as soon as they loosen up. It's a good tip for the faster runs without question.

LOS FELIZ -- quick run to loosen up after the layoff. Heel felt iffy for much of it. But there's no question the worst of the heel is over. It will be awhile before I go back to the Vibrams though because the irritation need to be gone before we push it on those again. Weather around here is amazing these days. Not a great run but nice to be out. Better days ahead.

LOS FELIZ -- went out with the Vibrams and really tried to keep from hurting the right heel. Seemed fine, but guaranteed to get sore after a while. Grrrr. Easy tiger.

SILVER LAKE -- Did the reservoir in a decent little afternoon run. Felt the effects of the negative diet. Really saps the motivation to run and the motivation during the run. Pronounced effects, I would say.

But...a good three run week with around 20 miles. Will likely hit the Vibrams up this week and see where it takes me.

SILVER LAKE -- Went out for second day in a row. It was raining a bit. Wet track. Good times.

SILVER LAKE -- Easy trip around the reservoir. Enjoyable. Remembered to stand up tall at one point. I like that. Also got the notion to relax the legs during the final push. Fast as a mother. New Year!
