Snow shoe run up the Wellsvilles. Aside from right hip flexors I'm not really feeling this R2R2R. This is probably due to the 15 hour time it took this year getting everyone across.   Gonna take it easy for this week and maybe get ready for some road racing like I always think I will.

Ran River Trail up to Crimson and over to Guenevah with Brett and Mandy. Beautiful headlamp run on single track in four inches of powder.  Lifted 45 minutes at the gym. This week I flew four times across the US from San Fran to Atlanta and never saw further than 20 feet ahead of the plane. In the clouds the whole time, runway to runway. Unusual for that distance. El Niño is going to make this a different winter than we are used to.

Just a few hours off work and ran Rattlesnake with Mandi in snow shoes. Totally kicked my butt.

Trail/Tempo combo with Ken, Mandy, and Brett. Ran 10 miles of the single track trail in Logan Canyon and 3.5 miles of Canyon Road. Kept the road miles under 6 min pace.  Evening run up to the Southwest Ridge and back down.
