This is without a doubt a prime example of weather extremes that happen in the Ohio River Valley and particularly Louisville Kentucky. Snow and below freezing temperatures at the beginning of the week to mid 70’s and sunshine by the end of the week. I have to check the weather report everyday and sometimes several times a day before going on runs. It’s absolutely incredible how the weather can fluctuate here. IMG_0337

Despite the weather, It was a solid week of training. I am doing my best to focus on my running form and posture this week. Good posture helps with my breathing. My pacing was spot on this week although my long run at the beginning of the week was slower than I wanted. The snow and cold had something to do with it. Guess, I’ll take it for now.

No injuries, and that’s a good thing. I do have some minor tendonitis developing in my knee. Till now, I haven’t been icing my knees after runs. That’s going to change going forward. Damn these old man knees…
