| Started at the rodeo ground and headed to the mouth of the canyon then over past mystic and back. My back was very tight during the run so I just took it easy. Temps were in the single digits and could surely feel it early this morning. Tried out the new headlamp I bought over the weekend and it seemed to work well.

| Felt much better today, decided to take it easy yesterday. Went out from the bottom of the hot springs up the rocky hill to the top or elk hill. Linked up again with the trail at the top and went south until I again dropped off back down the slotish canyon back behind the hot springs. Had a pretty big fresh cougar track I was following back down the canyon. I think my dog jumped it on the way back down as she stopped and started staring and I asked her what was it. We got to where she was looking and the tracks began there. Pretty cool but a little nerve racking as I run solo but at least I had my dog just in case.

| Got some new pairs of shoes in the mail last night. Tried out my new Altra The One 2.5 this morning. Felt really good, should be a fast road shoe. Ran from the house to the end of Sierra Vista Road. Kept a good pace heading up and on the way back. Still need to build my endurance as the last couple miles were a struggle, still ran the route faster than I have before. AP 7:36

| I was in Big Bear California for a family reunion. Therefore I needed a get away so I planned on running Sugarloaf Mountain. It was pretty icy in patches on the trail, and it was forcasting more snow so I didn't summit, went up 3ish then came back down. I would love to run it in good conditions. I was just glad I could get away and explore some new country.

| Ran from the hot pots to the top of elk hill with Laci. Just some soft light snow at the top not too bad. It should get me through sitting at the desk all day at work....

| Drove to the mouth of Monroe Canyon. Hit the canal trail going South with Laci. Just a couple inches of snow along the foothills. Just kept it relaxed and enjoyed the morning.

| Ran to the towers at the top of Thompson Basin this morning with Laci. A little over 2,500' of climbing. First three miles I had some four wheeler tracks to follow. The last mile and change got rough breaking through knee deep snow, Had to power hike the last .20 miles due to the snow drifts. It was more of a mental battle today as I wanted to turn back around multiple times and tried to justify it in my mind. Fought though and made it to the top. Pretty fun cruising down in fresh powder and my dog was having the time of her life.

| Six miles with Laci on the dirt road leading towards Poverty from Bishops. Dark, cold morning. Since I didn't run this weekend my legs felt good. Headwind the first 3 then easy floating on the way back. AP 8:33

| Woke up to rain, started running from the house and decided to hit the high school track across the street. Did a mile around the hood then did 2 miles with a stride every lap, cooled down a mile around the track then ran home. Wet, wet, wet outside but glad I was able to get it done.

| Just a light skiff of snow on the ground in the foothills. Went to the trail that leads to the hot springs. Did three repeats up to the springs and almost a fourth but ran out of time as I needed to get to work. It was about 1.5 miles round trip up around and back in a loop. Next time I will take a dip...

| Been having a slight cold and sore throats in the morning. Took yesterday off the try to get some sleep and it seemed to do the job. Went out to the powerline trail this morning. Went North from the hot springs. Nice run, cold, but wore a balaclava to keep my head/neck warm.
