Joined Joe this morning with the goal of escaping the muck and running in some clean air. We drove up to Franklin Basin and ran on the road for 13 miles. The road was covered in a few feet of snow and was nice and packed down for/by the snowmobiles. We started running in the 6 degree weather (15 degrees warmer than in Logan). The light headwind and the cold muscles combined to make life pretty miserable for the first 10 mins or so until we climbed up a bit of elevation and our muscles warmed up a bit. Once that happened, we loved it. Beautiful day, and it was sure nice to be out running in the mountains. T-1:48 (8:18) 1100' vert
