Trails!

Providence Canyon Trail (again) - 

Escaped the dirty air.  Pretended I was cool and lived up on the bench and could run up the canyon from my house.  Only, I had to drive to my pretend house first before starting my run.

Mendon Deep Canyon - 

Attempted a trail run that I figured would quite tough in the winter.  Deep Canyon.  I started from Downtown Mendon in 5 degree weather.  Climbed the approach road since I figured the trail would be rough.  It sure was rough.  I only made it 3/4 mile up the actual trail before aborting.  Icy snow with sugary powder under it.  Impossible.  Ended up running on a random dirt road nearby to get more miles.

Trail (i.e. snow) run with Joe - 

Its true, joe is alive!  He was sick for a week and avoiding me for a few weeks before that (or something).  Today we went up Dry canyon a few miles then bailed and headed over to Providence Canyon via deer fence for a mile before he headed back.  I kept going up the canyon for a bit more to get more miles.  Who can resist a buffed out snow trail?  Not me!

Week 5 of Sinus Infection - 

Decided to FINALLY get it diagnosed properly (sinusitis) and get on antibiotics.  I sure am stubborn.  It took me 5 weeks of off and on sick to finally go into the doc.  Took Friday/Sat/Sun off from running.  I will have to see how I feel monday...
