The inversion and the fog are getting very old quick. I want spring in a real bad way, I don't know if running in this bad air is good for me but I can't stand to do the eliptical. I did the golf course route today, thought that if I stayed up by the mouth of the canyon the air would be better, it's not as bad but still pretty murky. I did see the elk again today, they were a little closer to the road. They are sure neat to look at. There were also some deer running around today. That's why I like running in the river bottoms ya never know what you will see. I finished todays workout with 25 min of core strengthining, and ended with 200 crucnhes. It was a great run and another great day. Just livin the dream.

I decided to forgo outside running today due to the really bad air. They say we have the worst air in the country right now. Excercing out doors for an hour is the eqivelant of smoking two packs of smokes a day. I can feel it in my throat today. So I did the eliptical and finished with 25 min of core training, folowed by 200 crunches.

I think the air might of been a little better today, besides I could'nt stand it any longer I need to go for a ouside run. I did the the golf course loop again today and the temp was real comfy. I ran in shorts, and a long sleeve top with a vest, perfect running conditions temp wise anyway. I did see the elk again just west of the golf course, looked like they have moved in for a while. Finished todays workout with 25 min of core training, and 200 crunches. No injuries at this point I hope that the injury bug will stay away. I have a 10k coming up in march, so we want to stay injury free.
