Another easy 5 miles in full sweats this morning.  Felt okay into the breeze, but too warm coming back.

Last run with decent temperatures for a while.  5 miles fairly easy, into wind going out.  44:41

Easy 5 again this morning.  Lt. rain to snow.  Roads O.K.  About 9 min. pace.  Felt okay.

A cold morning at around 30 degrees.  Standard 5 mile route at 5:10 a.m.  Saw 3 other runners out this morning along my route.  My running partners havn't shown up on weekday mornings since before the marathon at St. George.  I think they've given up for winter.  Another friend is great at meeting me every Saturday morning and she is a very committed runner.  Need to get registered tomorrow for the Cold Turkey 6K Rrrun at City Creek Canyon on Thanksgiving morning.

5 Miles in the daylight.  Had an doctor's appointment this morning so I didn't have to run at 5 a.m. for a change.  Saw 15 head of deer in the field near the canyon rim before turning back at Grimm's gate on Skyline.  Decent run at easy 9 min. pace.  Got registered for the Cold Turkey 6K Rrrun in City Creek Canyon for Thanksgiving morning.  I hope the weather is decent and the roads are clear that day.

Absoultely fabulous day for a run.  8:30 a.m.with Tina.  She always pushes me good on the downhills and is great to train with.  We did essentially a loop around town.  Vine St., Droubay Rd. North to Pine Canyon, back into town behind Wal-Mart over to Coleman and back home along 200 W.  A great fall training run.  Felt good.  10 miles in 1:22:54, 8:17 pace overall.  Fastest mile was 7:27.  Slowest was 8:51.
