Because i want to get better i decided i need to cross train some and allow my body to heal the rest of the way.

Today i pulled a poor Fritz impression and tried to make friends with the Stairmaster. I learned that the stairmaster is not and doesn't want to be friends. It hates you. It can be hard And can punish your quads and calves. So i pushed it for an hour and got some work done. I'll feel that tomorrow. Thanks for the info Fritz :).

Had a great session at the chiro tonight as well.

Fun miles from Matts with Dan and Mike. Decided to test it out today after 5 days off of running. Everything felt great, no pain. Still will be careful though. We'll see how it feels in a couple hours. That's when it was getting really tight before.

We missed the weather until i jinxed it with a mile to go. I happily declared to Dan how lucky we had gotten and the temp immediately dropped 10 degrees and the headwind blasted us the rest of the way. Good job big mouth :p.

Snow day! After a snowy early drive to Lehi, and some great friends that were patient enough to wait an extra 10 minutes for me, we were all off for a long run in the cold. We had a great group with Scott, Matt, Dan, Reed, Spencer, Toni and I. Dan guided us through the various twists and turns. It was a little icy to start but there was no wind. We kept the pace on the easy side and just cruised and talked.

 We were fortunate to run into Davy Crockett :), he joined us for a bit and it was fun to talk to him. Such an animal. Out for what would be a long for me on a Saturday after running from Utah lake to the Great Salt Lake earlier this week. Wow.

It turned out great and still pain free. Reed and Spencer did 10, Dan and I 16, and the rest were in for 20. Thanks again for waiting for me guys, it was so fun. 7:10
