Total Distance

14.00

6 miles in the morning. (Again!)

8 miles in the afternoon.

The weather was extra chilly this morning due to the rain yesterday. I did the run at a 7:08/mile pace. The nose hairs were a little frozen this morning. I saw on the way to work that the temperature was 22 degrees! Yeah! I ran from my house down towards the Ogden River Parkway. I got yelled at by a dinosaur passing the dinosaur museum. This was weird! The cross country team met their and we did 10 x 400m sprints up a hill. It wasn't a big push but I tried to take the top runners with me and push them a little bit. We alternated between 15 pushups and 25 crunches for each sprint up the hill. The cold air really got the lungs burning. I ran home afterwards and a really big hill coming up Harrison. It was a good run and I ended up doing the entire thing at an overall 6:25/mile pace.

Sounds like you are getting your own little running group going over there.

Are you going to have Pilkington coach you?
