I just could not get out of bed yesterday morning, so the 6 miles of cross-training I had planned never happened. I was not injured in anyway, just tired. I have made a commitment to get plenty of sleep as I train for Boston and have not been good lately, so I felt an hour of sleep was more important than 60 minutes of spinning.

Today, I did manage to get out of bed and onto the road for ten hilly miles. I pushed all the uphill stretches and took the rest easy. Generally, I did not feel any ill effects of my long and slippery run on Sunday and felt pretty good, managing to hold a 7:20 pace.

I wore my Nike Pegasus today. I have not worn them for a while because they are a bit narrow on me. These are nice shoes except for the fact that the sole wears out so quickly. I have about 200 miles on them and the nubs under the forefoot are all worn down. I had hoped to wear these on snowy days since the original tread is rather aggressive, but I guess that I'll have to stick to trail shoes for that.
