8 miles on the treadmill after core lifting at 6 min pace. Finally shaking off all the pain with running the last few months.  I think I'm about two weeks out doing this same kind of stuff from this week until I can startback into marathon training.

Spent the afternoon hiking up the ski runs at Beaver Mountain Resort and skiing down.  I got four runs in which is almost what I've been able to do on a busy weekend!  Completely dead now.

They are talking about Alta and Snowbird opening this week. We need to go ski sometime. Now that I don't really run.

I'm up for it! It looks like you are still hanging on with the running. Now it's winter we all have the perfect excuse.

That's some pretty fast core lifting.

Ah, Beaver Mountain. It's been a long time since I thought about that place. I miss Logan.

Nice, way to get some fresh pow laps. I love skiing in the resorts before/after they open/close.
