Treadmill - 48:45

Early morning run on the treadmill at home. Nica was patient and played in the exersaucer for most of the run. I watched a Wilco DVD and ran really easy for the most part.

The new Nikes are nothing like the old Zoom Elites I have. For one, they are much wider and more cushioned. I also bought them in a 13 instead of a 12.5, so they are roomy. They will probably make good trainers but not a good tempo/marathon shoe like my old Zoom Elites.

U.S. Bank + Borah track - 40:55

Ran to the bank at 8 p.m. in the dark. Felt ok. Ran about 1.5 miles at the Borah track at around 7:15-7:20 pace to finish off the run.

Canal Banks to Cassia Park - 47:40

Nice run on the canals and a couple of laps at Cassia Park. The canals were kind of slow going due to the snow and Cassia was a little icy and snowy as well. When I got back to the neighborhoods, I did 2 pickups in the 5:40's to turn my legs over. Those felt good.

Canal banks + Cassia Park - 40:32

Good run and good conversation with Mat. I underdressed a bit and my legs and ears were cold. Other than that, I felt pretty decent.
