These were cross training miles. I went skate skiing up at Mountain Dell, my first time this year. Wow, what a workout! It's as if any fitness I have from running simply does not translate. Surprisingly, I managed to ski fairly well (for me), though I still don't have the "glide" down. I'm more of a clomper than a glider.  The real upside is no ab pain while skiing.  I should do it more.

Easy run via the U/Avenues loop.  Felt good until mile 6 and then ... well, you know.

I drove over to Steiner to meet up with the Black Sheep but on this cold morning it was just Stan and me. Too icy for much of a workout, so we just ran a loop around the U and TiTP.

This morning I met up with Connor Kamm, who is on break from Williams College, and we ran a northernly loop from the Zoo trailhead parking lot.  Connor's a good kid--I got to hear about his six month study abroad in Argentina. Easy pace, which is good because Connor could have put the hurt on me if he wanted to.

Happy New Year. I ran out to my friends' Margey & Hans' house and ate their cabbage.  Then I ran home.

Cross Training miles. I headed out the door at 6:00 and drove up to Mountain Dell and skate skied for 50 minutes in the dark, with a headlamp.  Not surprisingly, I was the only one there!  It was actually a lot of fun. Even though I have terrible form, the activity is fun and my technique is slowly improving.

Run in the snow from Diva's in Holladay.  It was a pretty good turnout for such poor conditions.
