Still not quite 100% but doing much much better. The race last week left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth so I ran a 4 mile warmup and then a progressive 4 mile tempo in 21:39 (5:30, 5:27, 5:24, 5:18). It was inside after work at the gym so I know it was easier because of the TM but it felt good to go fast so I just went with it. 2 mile cool down. It was too dark and nasty after work to get out in the stuff. Perhaps some snowy trails are in the future :). 6:23

Freezing 16 degrees out today but I had to get up in the mountains and kick some powder around. I ran the pipeline to grizzly route and was tracking fresh for 75% of the run in 4-6 inches of snow. It was tough and fun with 1500 vert. Great day!

Big storm today :). It was snowing so hard in Highland but no wind so Scott and I set out for a later morning run on the Murdock trail. It was one of those best runs ever with 2-3 inches of softness underfoot and the quiet stillness of the storm. Thankful for days like today.
