While the ole' back is still giving me some grief, I've managed to control it through the Foundation back exercise program and biking to the Carmichael DVD series in my basement. Last week I put in a 31M run effort over a 18hr window, the most mileage in a 24 hr period than I've done in a long while. I also pushed my legs to the brink with a 3hr trifecta [threshold, race and max power] bike workout which left my legs screaming for the day. I felt really strong though and feel my biking is as good this year as it was last year - what I need to do is step it up to break 8:30 in the 100 in August.
Leadman training is definitely on track as long as I can up my mileage this week to 50 and setup a 30M run in the month of March, 40 in April. I'm watching my body like a hawk these days and am very attentive to any mechanical failure.
In London, I had many of these dishes - NO MORE!

My awesome daughter Bailee and I out for a run:

she's 11 and putting in 10k's like their nothin'!
