I ran this run backwards.  That is to say I started fast and ended slow because I did the first 5 with the fast guy at work.

7.25 road miles.  Downtown, up City Creek, and home in the snow.

About 3/4 mile in stores while trying on new running shoes.  I bought the Nike Lunarglide+.  Nike seems to be the shoe everyone loves to hate but I've loved my last dozen(?) pairs of Nike Cesiums.  If these work nearly as well I'll be happy.  My wierd feet generally dislike running shoes (and most other shoes) but these felt good.... Time and miles will tell.  I also tried on a pair of Vibram 5 Fingers.  I'm not sure about them and didn't want to spend $80 to find out if I like them enoght to wear them for running or otherwise.

21+ miles, City Creek, BST out past Red Butte, and back.  Trail conditions ranged from ankle and foot "strengthening" frozen chunky rock-like snow, to wet muck, to ice, to corn... some hard miles.  Total time about 4.5 hours.  I'm tired but happy to have some miles in after vacation.

Ran into Jun and Twinkie on the trial :)
