It was sunny at my house, but foggy as soon as I dropped of the bench.  I ran 1 sunny mile, followed by 7 foggy miles, and finished with 2 sunny miles.  Total 10.63 miles.

It was 26 degrees...crisp but sunny.  Barry Smith came by and we ran out to Chubbuck and down Siphon Rd and looped back home.  Total 10.12 miles.  Nice to have someone to talk to on a run.

It was 47 degrees and breezy this morning.  I was actually able to run in shorts and a short-sleeved shirt.  I only had time for a short run due to a tight schedule this morning but I was glad to take advantage of the warm morning.  Total 6.52 miles.

We flew to Las Vegas this morning to have a spring break getaway.  We are going to a Jon Bon Jovi concert at the Hard Rock tonight.  Looking forward to it.

We slept in this morning after getting to bed late last night.  The concert was awesome.  I didn't get out until 8:30 and it was in the 50's and sunny.  It was AWESOME.  I ran 10.52 miles on the south end of town.
