| And I'm back (sort of). Been dealing with some knee crap related to all my old hip crap and well crap! At this point I am going to keep up the PT and try to get out more without aggravating it.
PM: Short run on the BST behind the U. Followed by an hour walk with the pup, rolling, clams, and deadlifts.
PM2: Skinned to the top of Brighton's Great Western lift with Team Stoke in the dark. So fun to be out in the mountains lit up with headlamps, stars, and the stoke of planning the next year's adventures. Saw a blazing shooting star which I promptly wished upon.

| AM: Took Roo up for a Mill Creek ski so he likes me again! He just spent a week with the best dog watchers in the world so he's been a little down since coming back home.
PM: Evening skin up to the top of Brighton. Felt way better than Wednesday and making fresh tracks behind the groomer in the dark is AWESOME!!!

| AM: Walk around Tanner Park with Roo and Andrea.
PM: 3 hours climbing with a fun group of peeps at the gym followed by one mile on the treadmill (no knee pain whatsoever, STOKE) and a 45-minute core cross-fit routine a la Coby. So much for my day of reading and being lazy. I am going to hurt so good tomorrow.

| AM: Finally got to experience the infamous horse park for a walk with Andrea and Roo. Dogs were much more well behaved than Tanner Park.
PM: 3 miles on the TM with no knee pain whatsoever - yessss!!! Glutes, legs, and rollies after.

| Early morning Mill Creek ski with the Roo-ster. Lots of fallen trees on the road so I can now add chainsaws to the list of things Roo Roo is deathly afraid of.

| AM: Puppy's first vert! Climbed a baby peak behind the Ave's with Roo and I've never seen him so happy. He kept sliding down in the snow and then running back up the hill checking out the view in every direction. He is going to make a great trail running partner!
AM2: 90 minute restore yoga

| Got out of work early so I rushed up the canyon for a ski girl group meet-up at Brighton, but was the only one to show up :(
I headed up alone and at the top a cat driver got out of his cat (and I thought he was going to yell at me), which he sort of did because he told me that I should not be skiing alone and that he has been seeing a mountain lion in these parts the last few days and he was worried that I would get eaten. I saw Jake and Andrea on the way down and warned them about the couger, but I am pretty sure the mountain lion would be disappointed if he tried to eat them!
I shook of his concern and headed up for a second lap. On my first trip up I took a little detour under the lift and through the woods and found myself on the same route the second time up except this time I saw gigantic paw prints following my first set of tracks. The prints looked more canine than feline, but whatever it was obviously followed my tracks so I ripped off my skins and was headed down the mountain approximately 15 seconds later.
My life is too fun now to risk getting eaten!

| Intended to run 10 miles today to assess my Antelope Canyon race possibilities, but I couldn't bare leaving the pupsters home. I seriously can't wait until he can go long distances although I will miss his cute puppy-ness! Anyway... we headed up the trail out on Stansbury Island to watch the sunrise and then headed back down and dinked around on the salt flats. Stansbury Island is one of the most beautiful and unique places I've ever been, but also the most raped and pillaged land I have ever seen!
Roo Roo living it up out on the island!

| First time out with my new ski-zees! 2500 feet of awesome uphill and 2500 feet of holding on for dear life. Wiped and lost my sunglasses which I didn't realize until I made it down so I went up in search of them despite my headlamp dying and found them minutes before the Snowcat would have squished them. This sport is way to gear intensive and scary!

| AM: Liberty (clockwise). Had to unwind from the other day...
PM: One Brighton lap with Jake and Andrea. Felt a little more stable in the new skis on the downhill compared to yesterday. Legs are tired so I had a beer instead of a second lap!

| AM: Gait analysis and glute stuff at PT. The analysis says I am actually using my glutes now and I have no hip drop problem while walking and only a minor problem while running. This is a HUGE improvment over HUGE hip drop problem this summer and fall. Just need to keep doing what I am doing meaning lots of glute work, cross-training, and running consciously.
PM: Short run on the BST with Roo. He is the best trail running partner ever! So happy. So fun. So, so muddy. Yay!

| Evening Brighton lap in under an hour both up and down. This is a huge improvement considering my first time up in December took 1 hour 15 minutes alone!
