 Last day off work for the holidays. Wanted to start the year off right. Ran 20.68 mile. 17 degrees out when I started, but had warmed to a balmy 22 degrees by 2 o'clock when i finished. The surface ranged from hard-packed snow to 5" of powder. Gained 2800' of elevation. Ran the canal road south to Willard, back to and up Perry Canyon. Up the switchbacks to the upper bench then to Sardine Canyon, turned around to Perry Canyon and home.  Saw 14 deer, including two bucks also saw 22 elk across a ridge line above me.

| Red air day, stayed inside on the treadmill. Ran 3.1 miles. I think I need new road shoes, the cushioning in the Mizunos is breaking down. |

| Got off work a bit earlier today so I hit the canal road. 3 inches of untracked (by humans) heavy snow. My wife called me as I was getting dressed for the run. She thought I was wearing too much. I'm glad I didn't take her advise, it was pretty cold, especially as it got later. It was a tough 8-1/8 miles, almost felt like running in sand, really cold sand. I love my Dirty Girl gaiters, they do keep the snow out of my shoes. |

Ran a 1/2 marathon distance training run up Perry Canyon and took the trail to White Rock. No human company, but lots of deer.  I spooked them earlier, ran past them and down the mountain. Ended up below them. They all watched from the ridge until I was out of sight.
Great run 13.25 miles, 2250 elevation.

| 5 miles on the canal road at dusk. After the rain there was no snow and the air was clear. Felt good running on dirt, even if it was a bit muddy. |

| Great hill training run. 13.5 miles up Perry Canyon, up the north switchbacks, summited my favorite hill training peak. I had to go back down the south facing slope, too much snow and ice on the north face. From there across the upper bench to Sardine Canyon. Turn around and reverse the route to home (without the summit). Lots of deer, a few elk, one other human. Beautiful day.

| Youngest daughter brought a young man home with her this weekend. What better way to get to know him than take him for a run. 5 miles on the canal road to Sardine Canyon and back. Wanted to go longer, but had strict wife/daughter instructions to only go 5. Good guy. |
