Early run with Heath on the new IM course. We did one loop. Tried to keep our heart rate down to 140. We seemed to control it better going uphill verses down. Very cold this morning with the humidity!

Splits: 8:27, 8:31, 8:07, 8:06, 8:10, 8:10, 8:09, 7:46, 7:46, 7:45, & 8:00 (last 0.2 mi)

Biked 34 miles with Craig out and around the St George area. He was working on cadence drills. I tried to keep up with that... kind-a!? The cold, wind and the rolling hills sure made things interesting.

Ran 4 more miles with Britnee and Cathy at an easy pace. I had to run as the Greeks of old... I was chaffed so bad I had to remove my underwear after the first mile. I felt much better!! :)

I'm pretty sure my heart rate would have been in the 200's at that pace.

Burt---are you sure that your heart rate wouldn't be in the 200's because Ben underbottoms were missing!!!!

LOL! I think that paragraph was added after I posted my comment. And good thing, too. I would have fainted.

I have seen "the spot" where Ben tends to chafe.
