Got some new shoes.  I found some Ghost 3's on a sale rack for a little over half price, so I picked them up Saturday and decided to try them out today.  I didn't really notice much difference from my other shoes.  But then again, I don't really notice much difference between my Glyceryns and my Launches, so why would I expect the Ghosts to be any different?

More treadmill games.  Today I tried mile repeats at just under 9mm.  I did four of them.  It was hard, but I feel like I am starting to get somewhere.

Nice to run outside as the sun rose.  8 miles at an avg. pace of 9:33.  Not bad for the hills, including my old friend, Eastdell.

 11.25 mile bike ride up to Little Cottonwood and back.  Legs were by far the limiting factor.  My breathing didn't ever seem very heavy.  Legs were a little sore and heavy from yesterday's run, but a lot of it is just dormant biking muscles.  They started loosening up after a while and felt pretty good.

I got all the way up to the first bridge on the Little Cottonwood trail and that's when I got to the snow, so I turned around.  It was nice to get out, but I need to adjust my derailers and brakes.

Slow run.  My legs were pretty beat after running 8 miles on Thursday and the biking yesterday.  I was planning to do 12, but I didn't get out soon enough because I was tired and took a little afternoon nap.  It is always so hard to get started.
