Met up early with Matt, Denver, Ken, Jon, and Riley from Mt Ogden Golf Course. Ken, Jon and Riley ended up running trails. I wasnt up for it, so I stayed low on the canal rd with Matt, and Denver. It was slow moving for a bit with the fresh snow. But once we got back on the roads where the plows had been it wasnt that bad. 

I hate winter but there is always something surreal about running early in the morning with fresh snow. Great start to a monday.

Recovery run on the Treadmill. Crazy with how much snow has come in 3 days. We got another 6 inches last night in North Ogden. Crazy icy roads still, hopefully it can warm up so the ice will melt. Getting tired of the Treadmill already, going to be a long winter. Also I decided that I really dont mind the cold during the winter, I just really dislike the Snow. If I could just get a solid job in STG I would be down there next week. Hey Holt if you read this get working for me huh!?

LONG RUN

Weather was perfect today and the snow on the roads were finally melted.

Felt really solid today. Used the first mile as a warm and it was my only mile that was over 7 min pace for the run. Held a steady pace for the first 10 miles. Then the last 10 I started picking the pace up and ended up averaging around 6 min/pace for the last 10 miles. Last 2 miles were up hill and hit 6:44 min/miles. GAP had pace around 6:03 avg.

avg pace for run 6:23 min/miles
