"Engaging in a little suffering — however self-imposed, arbitrary and contrived — before breakfast each morning tends to demand some humility and injects some marked relief into the rest of the day, making things sharper, more inspired, more immediately aware of the powerful presence of being. And that seems really worthwhile." A. Krupicka
"I cruised down hills, churned up hills, and floated over the asphalt, existing in a world that seemed to lack the confinements of such ubiquitous rivets as time, obligation, or pain. I knew then that this was destined to be one of those serendipitous runs for which so many of
us strive yet so rarely achieve." J. Nevels

Ran from the house up Farmington canyon onto the fire break road, then back down the canyon, through the hood to LPT and out and back, then home. Temps dropped from 56 to 46 degrees while I was out. The winds (12-15 steady with gust up to 30 mph) shifted from SSW to WNW also. It started to rain on me during the last mile or so.
A fun run with a variety of climbs, descents, asphalt, dirt, and nutty weather. |

Late afternoon run. It's been almost two weeks since my last TM run and I was jones'n for a little treadmill action. LOL! Progression starting at 8:57 pace for the first mile and worked up to 7:56 for the last mile. Went a little harder than I planned but the TM is gentle on the legs so I think I'll be alright.
Another thing I like about treadmill runs is I can wear shoes that have no business being still unretired.

| | Looking for that peaceful easy feeling on the Syracuse trail (all asphalt btw). Mostly sunny, 40F, winds 12-15+mph.
I planned on 8 miles, but the further out I got on the trail, the more rural the surroundings got, and what with the ideal temps, sunshine, pastures, and horses, I sort of got absorbed in thought and before I knew it the  mile alert went off on my watch and I was surprised to see I had gone out 5 miles. I felt good so I stretched it out to 5.5 miles then turned around and came back.

By the way, my old bud Lysa is on the blog now! Even though I was 27 yrs old when I first met Lysa, we kind of grew up together, we've both gone from wild single crazy party people lol! to "responsible" married, home owning, tax paying, child raising (for Lysa), and now running "adults". We've stayed in touch sporadically over the years. It's very cool that she's here! Give her a hello when you get a chance. Oh the times we had!! | |

Easy 8 on the LPT late this afternoon. Cloudy skies, 40 degrees, calm winds. Good running weather. Legs felt stiff the whole time, but the run went by quickly.
Carolyn in Colorado is in Utah and she was nice enough to stop by my work today to say hello. It was nice to put a face with a blogger. Thanks Carolyn!

6:15 AM clear, 25F, no wind really. VERY easy pace. Boy I like running in the mornings, I should do it more often.
1:30 PM sun, light wind, 45F. 6.7 miles on the 1 mile boardwalk loop at the shoreline preserve. Felt better than this morning. Tried to make a progression run out of it. Worked down to 7:40 for last 1.7 miles. |
