Pretty good run of 8 this morning. Did a little speed towards the end. There's another marathon runner that just moved here. He just completed his first marathon at SLC in 3:15. Anyway, I saw him running and had to show him who was boss, so I blew past him.

20 mile bike ride this morning. I suffered two flat tires!! Not one, but two!! Dang goat head stickers are everywhere out here. It only takes me 10 minutes to change a flat tire. I was impressed.

8 miles this morning. Can't believe how could it was, 38 degrees!! I put on my winter gear and headed out the door. It was a cold and windy run. I forgot to mention that yesterday on my bike ride, I came across a baby rattlesnake sunbathing on the road. We just looked at each other with a mutual understanding of, "I won't bother you, if you don't bother me".

20 mile bike ride this morning. A little chilly and windy. With only about 200 yards to go, I got another flat, so I walked home and changed the flat there. It was another goat head sticker!!! I'm thinking about putting slime in my tubes. I'm not sure if they make a road bike puncture proof tube or not? I know they make some thicker tires, but that would take away from my speed. Maybe my tires are starting to get too thin. I never had flats until about a month ago. I only have 1100 miles on my tires. I was told that there good for around 2000 and I've even rotated them. I don't know, live and learn I guess. Anyway, a good bike ride.

I get the weekend off!! My family is all coming down. There making some changes in the Branch Presidency and I'm the poor soul who was asked to be president. I'm not very excited about it. I hope the branch doesn't burn under my watch.
