Easy run with Heather and Jack. It was a beautiful morning after yesterday's snow. We ran up through the cemetery, 11th Ave and Memory Grove. We took a few photos along the way.

| Black Sheep Run. We headed over to the U from East High (track covered in snow and ice). We ran the Golden (9/10 of a) Mile. Josh and I ran 5:33. Then a 3 mile tempo on the Run Like Health 5k Course. I don't have completely accurate timing info, but we were 6 min on the first mile (with about 20 seconds spent directing traffic) and 5:33 on the third mile. I don't know the second mile split, probably 5:50. It felt like a 5k! Then another loop on the same course to cooldown and then back to the cars. | | Comments(1) |

| St. Mary's/Golf Course Loop. This was a tough run because of all the black ice and cruddy snow I seemed to encounter at every turn. The temperature was great, but the conditions on the ground . . . not so much. The hope is to have some kind of consistency in my running this week after last week's rollercoaster. | | Comments(2) |

| Woke up too late to run with the Black Sheep, so I set my thoughts on a 4 mile tempo run in Liberty Park. When I saw that it was 20 degrees out, I figured anything I could do what be fine. Running fast didn't seem like it was going to happen very easily. So I warmed up three miles to 600 E./500 So. where I began the tempo, heading toward the park. First mile, 5:55--feeling good but also feeling some of the christmas treats I ate at work yesterday. Second mile 6:02. This second mile just slays me. I feel like I'm running hard, but it turns out very slow. Third mile; GI tract is unhappy, 5:56. Fourth mile, 5:53. All in all, pretty slow but given the cold weather, not so bad I suppose. There was quite a bit of wind on half of the eastern side of the park (the "uphill" side). After a trip to the 7-11, cooled down 3 miles to home. | | Comments(2) |

| Nine miles easy with Josh around the U, Avenues and Capitol Hill. Then an easy mile back to home on my own after dropping Josh off at his house. Twenty three degrees. I wore a jacket and felt overdressed for the first couple of miles. After that it was fine. | | Add Comment |

| Radda run with the Radda crew. A few of us went on an adventure via the canal route to see what the conditions were like. There was a lot of snow and some poor footing, but runnable. Canal starting to freeze. Soon we'll be able to skate that section. Returned to Radda via Haven Lane and the Wander Lane route. Cold this morning! | | Add Comment |

| Whoa, not a great night's sleep. JStarting at about 4am, Jack started a contest with himself to see how loud he could cry for an hour. He won. We lost. Usually he's fairly peaceful in the night, but last night was rough. So I didn't get up to run until 6:50. I ran the Ensign loop, fairly easy pace. | | Comments(5) |

| Cold run starting at 6am from Foothill Village with a group of 5. I forgot my watch so all distances are approximate. I'll need to GMap it. After running about 3 miles, we circled back to pick up a few more at 6:30. Then it was every man for himself, with a big mix of distances among us. Sam, Kimmie, Oskar, and I ran another 11-12 miles (I'm thinking longer), but I'll split the difference for this accounting. | | Add Comment |

| Easy run from home to the St. Mary's neighborhood south of Donner Park. Briefly considered running up part of Emigration Canyon, but a little canyon wind at the mouth was enough to steer me away. The path through This is the Place was fairly clear and the temps were not bitter cold overall. | | Add Comment |

| Radda run. It was warm--almost 40 degrees, but a little rainy. Sam and I peeled off from the main group and ran the canal route, adding a little extra in an effort to find a new connection to Haven lane. Didn't work. Great morning for running overall. | | Add Comment |

It felt good to run after snacking badly all day yesterday. Did I have a real meal at any point? I guess the two croissants and two eggs in the morning counted as a meal. After that, though, it was like a garbage truck had been backed up against my mouth to unload. I think there was some broccoli in there, but I'm not sure. Overall though, we had a fun Christmas day with the baby as we made our rounds.
This morning I got out the door and ran into John Straley run commuting to work. It was great to see him. He's been injured since St. George and just getting back into it now. We ran together up through the avenues and chatted. I turned east and headed toward the hills. I circumnavigated some tricky Federal Heights neighborhoods and snowfields finally to get over by the JCC. From there, it was a snowy run over to Sunnyside and 900 So., back through the U to home. Lots of snow and ice on the roads meant very little room to run next to the cars.

| Five miles this morning. I woke up yesterday with a nasty fever and felt awful most of the day. Things improved through the day, but I still feel out of sorts. Too much work and not enough rest has caught up with me, I think. Perhaps I'll run again tonight if I feel ok, perhaps not. | | Comments(2) |
