Run to gym + treadmill - 47+
Snowed all day, but it wasn't too bad outside. Could have done the whole run outdoors, but met Emily at the gym and did 33 minutes on the treadmill, including 6 x 30 second pickups at sub 6:00 pace to turn my legs over a bit.

Canal Banks + neighborhoods - 47:29
It was cold and slick out (and getting dark too), but I really enjoyed getting out in the fresh air. I just tried to run comfortably and not worry too much about anything. Great run.

Treadmill - 41:35
I really did plan to run outside, but as it started to get dark I wimped out and drove to Gold's to hit the treadmill. I did 15 minutes easy, then miles in 6:18, 6:15 and 6:11 and the last half in 2:58. It actually felt smoother at marathon pace than at 7:15 pace on the warmup, which as weird.
Weights/core - 25 minutes

| Canal banks + treadmill - 53:50 Ran 12 minutes in the snow on the canals, then went to Gold's to finish the run on the treadmill. Did the last 1.5 at 6:15 and 3:00 to mix it up a little bit. Legs are really sore from the lunges and squats yesterday. | |

BK Track - 54:54
Ventured outside this afternoon into cold and stiff winds. Once I got to the track, it wasn't too bad, although it was drifted in a few places. I averaged about 8:30 pace on the roads and about 7:30 pace for 5 miles on the track. It's actually kind of fun to run outside on days like today - kind of makes you feel tougher than being on the treadmill I guess.

Canal banks + neighborhoods - 30:21
Feeling off today. Sleep and nutrition have sucked the last week. Slogged around in the snow and called it a day after 4 miles. I have 2 weeks off from work now so all will be good soon.
Easy 15 minutes of weights and core at 6 a.m.

CSI indoor track - 36:19
This was kind of a change of pace: I ran on an 11 laps to the mile indoor track at the CSI gym in Twin Falls. It had nice views overlooking campus and was actually fun (wouldn't want to do it every day). I did some easy running, steady running, sprints and drills - 4 sets of butt kicks, high knees, crossovers, A-skips, power shuffles, & backward running. Finished with 15 minutes of weights.
