I have five cute kids. And I have some rockin short green racing shorts- I wear them mainly because it embarrasses my wife so much. I like ultimate frisbee, trail running, reading, and cheering for the Denver Broncos!   And I have the absolute best wife in the world.  And I used to run for the now-disbanded national Team Pearl Izumi- Ultra!

8 miles at a medium pace on the beach in Florida.  Much better than running in the snow.

5 miles, from my house and along the Logan River golf course trail (aka Riverwalk).  Medium pace, especially since there was snow and ice on the track.  Night run.

2 very, very slow miles pushing the jogging stroller.  This was after a very fun, yet tiring, day of downhill powder skiing at the Beav.  First time I have tried running after skiing, and it didn't work.

Just curious- do you guys ever attempt to account for other forms of physical exercise as some sort of equivalent mileage?  For example, a day of skiing?  I also play 2 hours of basketball every Thursday and 2-4 hours of ultimate frisbee every Saturday.  Thoughts?

6 medium miles.  Loop from my house, through Providence to 300 S, to Blackhawk, to Riverwalk, then home.  Felt pretty good, especially the first half.  I need to get more sleep, though.  On pace for 35-37 miles this week, then 40+ next week.

Just over 11 miles with Paul and Cody, averaging around 8:00 pace.  Looped through Millville/Providence with a few hills.  Longest run this year by over 20 minutes, and I felt real good.  It was cold, though (somewhere around 0 deg F at the start, windchill below 0), and I enjoyed my eyelids almost freezing together.  Cody ran in shorts- I don't think he will do that again.
