My hips were hurting so bad from skiing yesterday. It just shows how one dimensional I've become. I really need to do the other things like stretching and some dynamic warm-ups, weights, etc... Otherwise, I'll barely be able to walk when I get older.
I did warm-up and decided to run an easy 6 miler on the treadmill in Girdwood.
12/28

Easy recovery pace at AK club. I also went XC Skate Skiing which was fun, but turned out to be a bad idea.

It was kind of a failed workout today. I was suppose to do 8 miles at 5:52 pace and I just wasn't ready for it. I'm following a little different program and I'm just not ready yet. Plus, it's hard over the holidays with all the crap I've been eating. Still got a good workout in though. Next time will be easier.
