12/10/17 to 12/31/17: Quick Update

I ran a 3k race that went well, but it wasn't anything to write home about (or to recap).  I'll take it, but there's meat on that bone.  I'll also try and do a summary of 2017, so here is the basic update of THE STUFF!!!!!

10-Dec		Long Run		2:37:33		20.03		AM: Another 20 miler….sure, why not!  Averaged 7:52 in ok conditions.

11-Dec		Harvard Track		1:20:00		9.74		AM: Harvard indoor.  (800/800/200)x2/400.  3k pacing then relaxed but quick for the 2s and 4.
		Easy		0:07:49		6.45		PM: 6+ at 8:09/mile.  Final 1.5 with Eli and Raleigh skewed the pace.
12-Dec		Easy		1:03:48		8.04		AM: 8m commute at 7:56/mile.  Felt fine, footing not bad…I suppose I best get used to it.

		BU Track		1:13:18		9		PM: 1000/1200/1000/600x2/400x2/200x2.  Was very relaxed for the first three reps, not looking to be exact on the pacing, and I felt great.  Whole workout was solid.
15-Dec		Easy		1:03:20		8.09		AM: 8m commute at 7:50/mile.  Feeling a little sick, but legs feel fine after last night's workout.
		Easy		0:39:13		5.11		PM: 5+ at whatever, just trying to take it easy ahead of tomorrow.  Not feeling great.
