Devra got me out the door this morning.  45 degrees felt nice.

Clear roads, but snowy sidewalks and shoulders.  Made for a frustrating run

Cold and clear, but surprisingly enjoyable run with Devra.

Hilly run through Cottonwood Heights with Tee and Devra.  No work for two weeks! Hopefully, more mileage

Thinking about my running goals for 2022.  I haven't raced in a really long time, which is fine. I love doing other things with my time.  But, I really didn't run very much in 2021. I feel better physically when I am working harder.  I would like to pick up the mileage and intensity a bit next year.  
 

7.5 very windy miles.

Indoors again.  Probably could have ran outside.  It's cold, though.

Got outside this morning.  The sun was out, which was nice.  The wind was not nice.  Footing was pretty good in my neck of the woods
