Solid group for a Monday with Matt, Denver, Jon, Ken and Riley. We headed out to the tempo loop in South Ogden then headed into the terrace for the rest. Roads again were such a icy mess. Black ice every where. Running up hill was one step forward and two steps back. 

Just glad to be getting miles in because the winter is starting wear on me. Plus lately it has been making it almost impossible to do a morning workout. Hopefully we can get an early spring!

Easy miles with Ken and Riley through the city of Ogden. Great pace for the day especially with the cold weather. I am starting to believe that we will always be in a dark cold world and that Summer is just a figment of our imaginations. 

avg pace 6:50 min/miles

Also on a positive note I just signed with Skechers Performance again. Grateful for the support they are giving me. This will be my 3rd year on the team and hopefully more to come.

Ran 7 miles easy with Jon then added on 3 more to make 10 this morning. Stomach wasnt to happy with me today for some reason. Had to go to the bathroom every other mile it seemed like. Dehydration and a late night could've played factors. Also what a brisk morning. Had a icicles hanging off the eye lashes by the end of the run. But thinking positive we are one day closer to Spring right?

Starting watching making a murderer today. Made a 90 minute treadmill run go by super fast. Riley hyped this documentary up so I thought I needed to develop my own opinion on it.

Run went well. Hit the let 10 minutes @5:27 avg which is goal Marathon pace. Feeling ready to start up with some new workouts next week and to start ramping up on some mileage for a Spring Marathon.
