I've really enjoyed the Olympics and have watched as much as I can. Not a fan of figure skating, skim through some bobsled, luge, and curling, but I really enjoy snowboarding halfpipe, snowboard cross, downhill skiing, and short track skating. However, my favorite has been the cross country skiing and biathlon, probably cause it is so similar to running (although my wife thinks I'm nuts for watching every minute of these long events). Yesterday's Men's 30k was the best yet- a relative-nobody Swede, Johan Olsson, broke away from the lead pack at the 15k mark, and 2 of his teammates in the pack kept intentionally slowing everyone down. Awesome. He built as much as a 25 second lead before finally being passed at the end (by his teammate). But he held on for Bronze medal. It was such a gutsy, awesome move, and I was really rooting for him and was happy to see he medaled. What about for everyone else- what are your favorite winter Olympic sports, and have you seen any inspirational performances?

| AM- 4 cross training, plus my first 2 miles running since RR. I plan to increase mileage 1-2 miles per day as my foot allows. Hopefully I'm back on track now, so that I can actually stand a chance to compete with Cody next month. | |

| PM- I have a very busy day tomorrow, so wanted to get a little bit longer of a workout in today. 6 miles running, 8 biking (including some very hard 1 minute surges). I felt better on the run today than any of the runs earlier this week. I wanted 50 miles this week, so should finish just about right. Then 65-70 miles next week, hopefully. | |

I had 90 min between getting home from some training and Marci needing to leave. It was a glorious, sunny, 35 deg afternoon. I decided it would be best spent doing a trail run- I drove to Dry Canyon and had a very wonderful 45 min run. The snow has been nicely compacted by hikers and snowboarders and was very runnable without excessive sinking in. Very enjoyable run. There's nothing to get your heart going right away as starting a workout by running up a snow-covered mountain for 30 min. 30 min up, 15 down. Not sure actual mileage, but it was 6 effort. And I could tell that I haven't used my "downhill running in the snow stabilization" muscles in a while. I may have to start doing this at least once a week- I think you could even do it very easily after dark. Cody, Paul, Scott- anyone is welcome to join me. Maybe next Thursday evening and/or Sat afternoon?
