I had Sue drop me off in my old neighborhood in town to meet with our "phatman" running group for our first run of the year.  I ran 4 miles with them then ran the 6 miles back to my house.  Total 10.06 miles.

I caught a ride up to the top of Buckskin with a group of 10-12 people.  Cool, misty morning.  Kept a decent pace through the first 15.  Everyone else ran 11-14 so I was alone the last 6 with a cold, nasty headwind from Inkom to Century HS.  Total 20.05 miles.  This is my first 20 miler since the Pocatello marathon last September.  Feels good.
