My first entry to the blog! If all goes well, I plan on running the Ogden Marathon in May.
Today was 10 degrees with a cold north wind (wind chill - 3 degrees). Ran the Idaho Falls greenbelt to Pancheri bridge. Total time: 49:30 | | Comments(5) |

| Another chilly day! 26 degrees with a stiff breeze. The recent skiff of granular snow has made the traction better, but it is still pretty sketchy to run on. My time today was 39:00. Hopefully we can get a few warmer days to clear the path. | | Comments(1) |

Running was good today. Temperature was 26 with no wind. It has not snowed for the last 2 days and there are a few hopeful patches of asphalt peeking up through the snowpacked green (white)belt path. Total time = 50 minutes. Since slow and fast miles are not much different for me - I only seem to have one speed - I will differentiate at 7.5 minute miles. I tried to pick it up a little when traction was available and did well for short spurts. Hopefully we will get sunshine and many miles later in the week! | | Comments(2) |

| Treadmill day. Grrr. The forecast claimed it would be blowing 35 MPH+ with snow, so I did not bring any outside gear. As I should have expected, it was a nice sunny day. Ran 4.5 in the morning at 7.5 pace and 3.1 at noon at an average 6:50 pace. | | Comments(5) |

| Ran on Treadmill in morning for 4.2 miles. Time 30:00. Slipped and slid around greenbelt for 4.8 at noon. Very slick path today and light snow falling. Where is that sun? Temp is 12 F with no wind.. Time 36:30. | | Comments(1) |

| Hit the treadmill in the morning. 7:30 pace. This pace is getting somewhat painless on the treadmill, but it still seems tough outside. Try for 10 outside tomorrow. | | Comments(1) |

| Took a nice slow run down Sunnyside road. Started at the intersection of Ammon/Sunnyside and struggled with traffic and snow until Hitt road (plow your sidewalks Ammon!). After Hitt road, the city of Idaho Falls does a fine job of clearing the path. Ran the path all the way to Professional drive (near Yellowstone hwy), made a half mile loop around the Corporate Express warehouse and back. The run was comfortable and felt that I could go further. The next long run will have to be a faster pace. Temp = 17, no wind and a new skiff of snow on the path. Still looking for the sun! | | Comments(2) |

Below 0 outside with breeze = treadmill. Wimpy (or smart) people may start moving away from here soon.......

Cold run today! Nice, sunny and 3 degrees below zero. Made a short 3 mile jaunt. Ran the 1st half with Jeff at under 7:30. I then encouraged Jeff to scout ahead so I could slow down before my lungs turned to frozen blocks. Still managed to average 7:30 | | Add Comment |

AM - Ran a very poky 3 miles on the TM. Since I was short on time, had to cut off at 3.
Noon - The weather was quite windy so I ran another 4 TM miles at about a 7:20 pace. | | Comments(2) |

Treadmill run in the morning - speeds were 7:30, 7:11, 6:58, 6:58.
Between family, friends, work, and all the other unplanned stuff, it is constantly a struggle to find time for running. I am becoming more impressed all the time with the serious runners on this blog that continually make 50 or more miles per week. | | Add Comment |
