am - Easy 11 mile fun run with Matt, Tris, Toni, Mike, and Bryce up the canyon and back. I did an easy mile before to loosen the legs up. The miles flew by today because of the good conversation. Love these runs, after some long days at work it's nice to get together with the gang again.7:15

Pm - easy 1 mile shakeout on the elliptical and then a 45 minute stepdown on the tm. 10 minutes at 8.5 mph, 9 minutes at 9, 8 minutes at 9.5, 7 minutes at 10, 6 minutes at 10.5, 5 minutes at 11. Very happy with this. Felt strong. 6:12

Nicely done. I like to warmup before joining my friends too - I can't start out as fast as them! How was the canyon? We were thinking about doing our long run up/down on Sat.

It was dry until the parking lot above Nunns. Really icy after. That north side up there gets no love from the sun.

Thanks for the run. It's always a blast running with you guys.
