Didn't run on Monday because I had some weird thing occur on Sunday evening where I lost part of the hearing in my right ear and had a lot of pressure in it.  Went to the doctor on Monday and they put me on some antihistamines and nasal spray that cleared up the blockage.

Tuesday - in the office before 6 a.m. for meetings.  After work, my son-in-law and I did 5 miles together in the wind and snow.

I'm having a hard time finding workout time with all my company the past couple of weeks.

After work I went to the gym and did 5.6 miles on the treadmill in 60 minutes, then 10.5 miles on the stationary bike.

Heading up to Ogden soon to see my nephew open his mission call.

5.3 miles on the treadmill followed by 2.7 miles on the ellipticals.  Spent the afternoon with Jenn and Jeremy.  Was going to go help my ex move into his new house tomorrow, but he is already done moving, so I can be lazy.

Couldn't fall asleep until after 3, so slept in until 9. The beautiful weather was calling me, so headed over to Draper to the Porter Rockwell Trail. I walked one mile warmup, ran 5 miles, 1.15 miles walking cooldown.  The contact lens is really driving me crazy today.  Only 5 more days to put up with it.
