Was up in Logan this morning and got up at 4:15 and ran 13 miles with one of cadets that is on BYU Track Team. I forgot my GPS so just ran by feel and estimated distance. We started at what felt like 7:20-30 pace and gradually picked it up. By the end I thinkg we were at about 6:30-40 pace at least. This was an easy run for him and he guessed about the same paces I did throughout the run. It was very cold in Logan official temperature when we were running was -9.4'F!!! I'm starting to be thankful for Provo weather considering it was 15'F this morning in Provo. After running we went downhill skiing at Beaver Mountain. It was a perfect day with awesome fresh snow and about 9 inches of powder. I have not skiied in over 10 years and was a little concerned but things came back to me quickly. My goal was to not get injured and I managed to come away with no crashes and no injuries that I can speak of right now. I stuck to blue courses most of the day but towards end of the day went on a off course powder run that turned into black diamond material. I was in a little over my head but managed to make it out unscathed except for some very tired quads. I forgot how much of a workout downhill skiing can be. The quads really get worked pretty hard and I am beat after driving back at the end of the day to Provo. A very long, tiring day but fun. |
