running for my mind

5.3 - 7:27

first of many frosty beards this winter

heat / stretching / ice

I started listening to the audiobook "Unbroken" yesterday in anticipation of the movie that will be released next month. If anyone wants a copy to listen to, just let me know. For those that don't know, it is the story of Louis Zamperini, "a former Olympic track star who survived a plane crash in the Pacific theater, spent 47 days drifting on a raft, and then survived more than two and a half years as a prisoner of war."

Also, for those of us in Utah, I thought this was an interesting article. I never considered altitude as a contributor to depression, anxiety, and suicide.

PM - 45 min on spin bike / stretching

6.5 - easy / parkway

if i released an album right now it would be titled "easy on the parkway."

10 - 7:02 - 880ft.

Met Fritz and JP in Sugarhouse and followed them on a loop up 13th S to Wasatch, across Wasatch and over to Tanner Park, and back to Sugarhouse.

It was a good run for me with a decent amount of elevation. Legs held up well and I only felt a little soreness where I have been having issues during the last .5 mile. I was pleasantly surprised because usually the hills are what have upset it. Great base building run for me.

5.5 - leg did not hurt at all on the run. the pain that once was in the side has migrated to the foot. felt a little uncomfortable upon waking, but ceased prior to running.

Contemplating a 5k on Thanksgiving. Millcreek has one that seems pretty hilly. There is also one in Park City that my sister invited me to join her on. Looks like one will be 18 degrees at the start and the other 12. Decisions. Decisions.

Has anyone seen this video about Kayla Montgomery? Pretty amazing.

15 - solo on the parkway. quite gusty on the return. had to start at 6 because of a busy morning. hope to nap later.
