Canal banks - 30:10

Ran at 7:30 a.m. I have trainings off campus all week and don't have to be there until 9 a.m., so I was able to run in the light. Easy pace of about 7:55/mile. Sub 8 is fine for me when it's early, cold and I'm out of shape.

Later ran a mile with Nica while she biked at the Borah track.

Snow day today! Took a mid morning run around the neighborhoods and really enjoyed just getting out. It was coming down hard this morning.

Walked the Valley High loop - took the day off, and it was too slick to run up there anyway.

Good core workout in p.m.
