5 miles in 43:21 on my treadmill. Too wimpy to go outside at 5:00 a.m. in 5 degree temperatures and icy roads. Varied pace from 9:15's to 7:30's. Mostly easy. | | Add Comment |

| 5 miles again on the treadmill this morning in about 43 minutes. Varied pace from 9:15's to a closing pace at about 7:00's for the last half mile or so. Felt okay, but still don't like the treadmill much. If he roads aren't loaded with black ice tomorrow morning, I may hit the asphalt at 5:10 a.m. SLC, Bountiful, and Provo really got hit with snow this afternoon, worse than yesterday, we didn't get much here at all tonight for some reason. | | Add Comment |

| Hit the roads this morning. It was quite warm compared to what it has been. There were a few spots of black ice on the roads, so I had to be a bit careful and our sub-division is the worst in town with snow still on the roads for the final quarter mile or so. Nice to not be on the treadmill. But, I may return to it on Friday morning if the next storm comes in when they say. Very sluggish and slow 5 miler today. Only about a 9:51 pace overall. | | Add Comment |

| Another 5 miler slow and easy on the roads. Only about a 9:36 pace overall. Slick in one or two spots. More snow coming tonight. Maybe hit the treadmill in the morning again. | | Add Comment |

| 5 miles on the treadmill at 5:00 a.m. in 41:31. Pushed it a bit the second half. Felt okay. Roads were slick and icy this morning. Should be fair tomorrow morning for my last 14 miler in preparation for Painter's Half Marathon in St. George next weekend. Right now they're predicting sunshine there, at least on Friday, with a high in the mid 50's. That would be a lot like last year. I ran 1:35, but not sure I have that in me this time. We'll see. | | Comments(4) |
