It ain't Chinese algebra!

Major issues flying home today.  Multiple re-routes and eventual flight canceled.  But I made it as far as Denver for the night.  Hopefully tomorrow goes smoother.  I don't have my luggage so no running for me today.  Blah.  I lifted weights in the hotel to get some sort of exercise though.

Long day of travel, but thankfully not bumped from any flights and none were canceled due to weather.  Better than yesterday!

10 miles around GP.  It's good to be home and have proper gear for the cold weather.  Bummed I wasn't able to run yesterday...

10 miles around GP.  Nothing special.

Another 10 around GP.

10 miles in Eugene.  I ran up Coburg Rd into Springfield, then looped past the mall and Costco, then back to the motel.  Got a little lost there at the end but made it back eventually.

9 miles in Eugene.  Played it safe and ran to the mall, then ran past the car dealerships and returned home the same way.

Limited time today.  Roseburg breakfast @ Evergreen made for an early morning.

7 miles around GP, then a quick stop to help clean the church, then another 8 miles.  Very cold today and the fog doesn't want to leave town.

6 miles in GP.   Unusually tired for a Monday morning.  Made it hard to get out of bed.

10 miles in GP

7 miles tonight in Coos Bay.  The weather was perfect so I started my run in short sleeves and no gloves.  After two miles the rain started and then the wind picked up.  The final 3-4 miles were miserable.  Absolutely miserable.  City Subs for dinner though so at least that was good. 

8 miles in Coos Bay

AM: 12 miles around Anderson Dental and Club NW

Noon: 8 miles out and back on New Hope Rd.

Its been a while since I've had a 20 mile day.  Feels good.  I love vacation!

11 miles around GP.  Very foggy with limited visibility but it was a nice run.  A little stiff from yesterday.

From the Leeds house to the Washington County DMV (past the lake).  Then returned the same way.  Lots of uphill on the way back.  Yuck.

6 miles through Silver Reef and up the canyon on a dirt road.  Back the same way.  My legs aren't loving the amount of hills I've ran the past 2 days.  Knees are feeling it.

Leeds frontage road to Toquerville exit and back.

Back to the Toquerville exit, then to the other side of the freeway and through some hills, then back to same way.  The wind is brutal!!!

Basically the same as yesterday.  I'm trying to stay flat to give my knees a rest from the uphill that isn't agreeing with them.

5 miles with my dad and now it's off to AZ for a week.  Vacations are the best.

10 miles in Arizona.  Staying at the Walkers for a week which means lots of new routes and trails.  There are a ton of trails around here so it should be fun.

14 miles by myself as I ran to Thunderbird Park and ran the hills/trails. It was awesome.  Then 4 miles with my Dad as he was just leaving for his run when I got back.

10 miles.  Kept things pretty flat today but then the whole family went for a hike so legs got some additional work.

12 miles back at Thunderbird Park.  I ran the same trail as a couple days ago, but this time in reverse order.  It's comical the amount of clothing that some people are bundled up in these mornings.  You'd think they were climbing in a couple feet of snow.

11 miles on the mountain trail (Deems) and then a quick tempo back to Jill's (5:23, 5:01) and then 1 mile for a cool down.  I'm loving these trails.

6 miles before the long drive back to Oregon.
