Easy run with Heather and Jack.  We ran up to Research Park and back.  Abdominal pain was less noticeable today--didn't really think about it much at all on the run.

I had to get into work by 7am, which meant no early run.  I brought my running gear to work with me, but since it was raining I decided to run on the treadmill at the gym.  I've had a membership there for a year but I dislike running indoors enough that this is the first time I have gone. So I got in a $120 run on the treadmill.  Good thing its only $10 per month. Running five miles seemed to take an eternity, but it was actually like 37 minutes.

An actual run this morning! It was raining when I woke up but had stopped by the time I hit the pavement.  I thought I might be overdressed, but it turned out fine.  I ran the Bonneville Golf Course loop and had a nice run overall.  I suppose it would have been nice to run with the Black Sheep, but I woke up too late!

Met up with Josh on my street and we ran the U/Avenues loop. It was drizzling most of the time, but wasn't coming down too hard.  I wasn't soaked when I got home at least. If it were a little colder, I think we would have snow for sure.

It was a little damp out this morning, but I figured a little running on the trail would be ok. I headed up onto Shoreline and over toward Red Butte and up to the gate.  The end of daylight savings means it was pretty light out and I didn't have to run in the dark.  I am listening to another Cormac McCarthy book ... Blood Meridian.

Slow getting out the door (again) this morning, 6:20.  I really need to start getting up within the first five snoozes on my alarm. Anyhow, I ran the U/Ensign loop. Discovered the porta potties are no longer up at the Ensign field (soccer season is over, I guess).  They will be missed.

Met up with a group of about 10 at Foothill Sbux at 6am. We ran a northern route, basically covering the terrain that is part of many of my weekly routes.  The upside is that I was more accustomed to the long climb on 4th Ave from A street to Federal Heights than some, but it was still a bit of a slog. Johanna kept the pace honest, as always.
