Recovery went well from the 50K and I felt like hitting the trails again so I braved the 15 degree temps for a jaunt up Providence Canyon.  I felt much better than expected and actually felt good as new (at least for a short run).  The trail was packed down and not too icy.  Overall, a great run.  I even was able to turn off the headlamp for the last 3 miles.

Providence Trail -

I was feeling good today, so I went for a new course PR.  Previous record was 1:09:15.  I smoked it by a whole minute even with the slippery trail.  I actually think the trail is easier when it is covered in packed snow cause it takes out all the rocks.  Makes it less technical, but slick.  Good times.

Providence - river heights loop

Pretty chill today.  I see a lot more people out running and walking on the roads than I ever do on the trails.  It makes sense, but is still weird.

Longish run with Paul.  Last run with Paul before he abandons us to go to greener pastures.  I figured that since it seems that most runs we have done together have been in the rain, today would be no exception.  It was cold, rainy, windy, and just plain uncomfortable.  Paul had a wardrobe malfunction (don't worry, just his gloves) and nearly froze to death.  The other 'highlight' was watching him "run" on Deer Fence trail in the mud.  It was hazardous, and he was taking no chances.  We FINALLY made it though, in case you were worried.  Even though we suffered in the rain, the snow storm outside now is even nastier.  Glad we went when we did!
