Wednesday- Rode the rollers for an hour. My memory of these days is not very vivid.
Thursday- Not sure what my aversion to be outside is? It was kind of cold so went to the gym to run. My tunes were dead and I just couldn't do it. Ran outside once I go home that night. It was cold and dark but good anyway. I stretched a little, but something came up. Can't remember now what it was.

Swam at MSU for the prescribed workout. Then ran outside. Went sort of midday. Felt good to be outside in the daylight
Saturday- Got up and rode the trainer. Made a big breakfast with Erik and then headed over to my parents for Christmas Eve.
Sunday - Christmas- Stayed up late with Gabe the night before and had to get up early to go to Erik's Mom's house. After hours of presents we had to get out of there. Went home to regroup. I went on an hour run. It was good. Erik bought me a waterproof Shuffle for Chrismas so got to try it out. Not in the pool, but it is light.
Mon 12/26/11- Off from work! Went up to Bozeman Creek with my skate skis. Wasn't feeling very efficient or energetic. Couldn't tell if I just needed to wax my skis or if it was really me. Passed the bridge and went up almost to Moser. I was probably 200 yards from the end and just couldn't will myself to go any further. Turned around and was pretty bonky on the way down despite quite a bit of food. Skied probably about 18-19 miles total.

Feel worked from yesterday. Was totally useless at work and I was the only one there. Went over to the pool and did the swim workout after work. It was tough. My arms and back were tired.
Ran on the treadmill for 30 minutes post swim. The run felt good.
Wed. 12/28/11
Was going to try and do the GAS nordic workout. The snow was really bad and the were not doing it because of the holiday. Took the day off.
Thursday 12/29/11
Ran at lunch- Ended up running a little over an hour. It was really icy out and had to go farther than expected to find a little hill to do the pickups on. Pickups were hard. Maybe went too hard? But felt good.
Rode rollers for an hour after work.
Question: What do you know about pedals? My pedals had a little play back and forth. This really bugs me. Should it?

Swam after work- At first I was not really into the 1500 straight. These are usually really boring. But I went up to MSU and everytime I swim in that pool I have visions of the Grizzly. I mentally divided the 1500 up into 500's and really really really focused on the flip turn. It took about 800 to start nailing it every time. I think this year if I can keep doing this I won't be last out of the water. I think it will be good to try and swim in that pool 1-2 times/ week.
Question: Do you think that swimming with the Masters 1x per week is reasonable? They are always in the long pool an until the Grizzly I would like to practice in the short pool. It is sooo much cheaper to only pay for 1x per week with Masters.
Ran after the swim. Was having some Erik relationship trauma which made this run kind of hard. Only got to 25 minutes. Also feeling it from the run the day before.
Sat. 12/31/11 Met Jamie for yoga. Found a new better studio. I really like Anaysara yoga rather than Vinyasa. The class was good but the instructor was a little chaotic. Thought, great this is what is leading into the next year. She wanted to do a little run after so I went with her. (Sorry, deviation from plan). We ran for an hour and then went and got coffee. Was going to do the trainer workout, but was having problems being a little dizzy. I finally took out my contacts. This may sound stupid, but I think they were in the wrong eyes. It had been messing with me all day. So no trainer workout.

Woke up sore from yoga. Yes!! I am so glad I found this new studio. I love this soreness.

Question- Thoughts on doing some more road racing? I would like to do some road racing with the GAS girls if it works.
