Trails!

AM: Sick.  The whole family got it this time.  Yuk.  Instead of running, I slept for 10 hours.  That was nice.

Feeling better today.  The headache is gone, the sinus issue is better and the throat is better.  I have sure enjoyed sleeping in, but now it is back to the normal routine.  

I hit the treadmill watching Dirty Jobs for 7 miles in the evening.

8 easy - 

Between the cloud cover and the snow covered ground, there was a ton of reflected light and it was pretty bright out this morning.  Pretty cool.

Took the day off today from work.  Slept in till 7.  Spent time with the kids, went running, packed then left town.   Now I am in SLC for the weekend.   Its close to double Logan's temperature right now here.  Nice.

Today's run was cold (single digits) and slow.  Providence Millville loop. Once my snot froze things went much better.  

T-1:27:12 (7:16) HR monitor either froze or died.

Christmas with Family

Jordan river parkway with my ipod and a new Pearl Jam album for company.  I started at 6200 S and headed north for 8 miles then turned around.  I thought I was feeling pretty decent keeping the pace under 7 on the way out.  Turns out that I had a tailwind.  I decided to try and keep it up and kept the pace moderate the whole way.  I figure that I am finally over my cold as I finally felt my strength return today.  

T-1:49:47 (6:52) 

-Today mostly salvaged a bad week of training.  Hopefully next week will be better.
