JRP- It was cold.  ~16°, windchill 3° to 5° below.  But the air was clean and clear and the sun was shinning.   Any colder and I'd need my ski gloves and balaclava or face mask.

8:19 ave pace on JRP.  Mid to upper teens with a light breeze (5-10 mph).  It sure felt warmer than yesterday.

BST to Red Butte and back.  A nice day.  We ran a slow and ez pace.  About mile 8 I hit some ice and fell flat on my back.  Falling in such away means your feet and legs don't get hurt.

I re-discovered that my Garmin doesn't work when the battery is dead.

4x4 min repeats on miracle mile.  Pace- 6:14, 6:18, 6:21, & 6:31.  Not as bad as I would have guessed.  I'm still fighting a cold and the wind was crazy- 37 mph w/ 48 mph gusts!

To the upper towers and back.  I ran with my newly adopted friend, Liza.  She is a great running partner, though she runs about 3 times as far as I do and probably 2x as fast (it is like she is running fartleks the whole time).  She did seem to finally run right with me for the last couple miles.

JRP.  I picked up the pace heading back in.  At least I tried to pick up the pace.  I am feeling slow.  :(

4 x 4 min intervals on Miracle Mile course.  Pacing 6:07, 6:05, 6:14, 6:17.  Better than last week, but still slower than last year.

BST to This is the Place and back.  We lucked out with the weather and it didn't snow on us.  There were however, a few inches of fresh snow covering the trail.  It was enough to completely hide holes, rocks, ice, icy puddles, and other hazards.  This made for some challenging, slow, and exhausting running.
