New Orleans. Ran from the hotel along St. Charles for 4 miles, then turned around and returned via a street just four blocks north. It was crazy... Multi-million dollar homes on St Charles and I felt as safe as can be. On the return trip, just four block behind these homes, was sketchy as can be. I felt fine until the final mile and then I quickly relaized I was in an area I didn't belong. Anyway, all's well that ends well.

I-205 and back. Love it when the wind and rain stops. It was a perfect t run in short sleeve shirt and no gloves....less than a week from Christmas.

Not that cold, but terribly wet and windy. So quickly became miserable and called it a day not long after starting. I'm turning into a wuss.

Target North and home via Walmart. Rainy run, caused my socks to slip down, and my shoe ripped apart my left achilles. Painful and bloody.

Past Costco and around Union HS. Windy and cold. 

Not my best year in terms of mileage, races, or anything really. Just lacked motivation to run from time to time. Enjoyed running the Utah Valley Marathon with a friend, and a few halfs in Oregon in the fall. Found a ton of bottles ($1,068.20) which pretty much was the only thing that got me out of bed most mornings. I reached my goal ($1,000+) and will more than likely continue in 2016. Here's to an even better year in 16.
