My daughter returned from a semester in Argentina today! So nice to have her back!

TM run today. Av. pace 8:06. Not an easy run. I had a stomach thing on Saturday that spilled (literally) into Sunday. Followed the run with 30 min on the stationary bike. Not a great run but a good day nonetheless.

Still not feeling 100%. Did 6 miles at lunch on the TM. As usual this time of the year some dude that hasn't run or been to the gym since this time last year (New Year's resolution) wants to prove how fast he can run to the world. Each time I would increase the speed he would top it. I didn't bite and did my own thing. He was gone after a brief 2.5 miles, exhausted and frustrated that I was still running.

Av. Pace: 8:31

Planning on another 4 miles after work.

4 uneventful miles on the TM after work. Av pace: 8:15. Felt better than the noon run.

First 3 miles was slow (8:40 pace). Too slow. It was uncomfortable, awkward to run at that speed. Last 5 miles bounced the pace around between 7:53 and 7:30 pace, which was actually easier.

Total time: 1:04:12

Av pace: 8:02

Nice 6.5 mile run up City Creek Canyon. The weather was just right for two layers. Forgot my gloves in the dryer this morning so my hands froze for the first mile or so. I didn't track time or pace on this run on purpose and ran on feel but I was moving at a good clip for me.

Will probably do another 4 miles this evening on the TM after core workout.

PM - 4 miles on the TM. Av Pace: 7:56

Run up City Creek Canyon during lunch with some friends I haven't seen in a while. We spent the whole run chatting away so no one paid much attention to pace. Enjoyable but cooold.

Av Pace: 8:22

Sweet long run. First hour was a little slow going, trying to warmup. My shins were sore for whatever reason and I just felt stiff. It took an hour to work that out and then I just felt better and better the further I went. My last mile was at a 7:13 pace. Plenty in the tank at the end of the run.

Total time: 2:04:33

Av. pace: 8:18
