Fly on the Wall

6 miles on trail to lower tower.  Running in the fresh snow was great.  I love running in fresh powder.  It was a bit over ankle deep.

6ish on JRP. 

Almost time for the really cold running gear. brrrr is on its way.

JRP 7.3 not hard miles.  wind - near 30 mph with gusts >50 mph.

4 miles.  After a hard night I woke up in a foul mood and needed to run.  Ran from home up the trail toward the lower tower but ran out of time and had to turn back.  Maybe I'll sneak in another run after lunch, but I probably won't have time.

~13°  when I left, 16° when I returned home.  I was dressed warm enough for this but up on the hill the wind was probably 10mph with gusts to 20mph, putting the windchill around 0, which  I was not dressed for. 

16.4 miles in the desert south of St. George.  25 degrees when I left, much warmer than Salt Lake.

We are at my mother-in-law's in Bloomington.  When I first came here in the mid 90s, the desert began just past the end of the driveway.  Today I had to run over 4 miles before I was in the desert.  I guess that's progress.  Once I made it to the desert I just ran aimlesly on dirt roads, trails, tracks, and untracked desert- very enjoyable.

I planned on another mile or two with my dog but when I went back to get him I found dinner was ready.....

10 in the desert south of St. George... 

Now it's off to the strangest place on earth- Las Vegas.  I haven't liked Vegas much.  Although I've driven through often, I haven't actually been to Vegas since about 1993.  I'm sure it will be interesting.
