Met Tim, Evan, and Spencer again at Butterfield.  This time we ran down by my house and down the Bluffdale route.  Planted some drinks at Bluffdale Park.  The snow was coming down the whole run and it was around 27-30 degrees.  Glad I wor a hat to keep it out of my eyes more.  The only bad part was going down 13400 S.. Evan slipped and fell on his back, arm, and head on the sidewalk by Monarch.  We had just been talking about getting off the slick sidewalk when he went down.  Banged his arm the worst, but got his head too, bummer!  That was Tim's whole fear in going out today.  The rest of the run was good.  I took off the last 2 miles and went 6:30 and 6:20 to stretch out the 7:45 ave a bit.  Glad to get this one done.  7:35 ave

It has been really cold, in fact it was single digits last night.  Been a bit tight and tired this week and I was not excited for this run.  However, it wasn't too bad.  I drove Hunter and Tim over.  We met Evan and warmed up for about 1.75 miles at 8:38 ave. .  It was about 15 degrres at the start, but I dressed about righhhh.  Went out at 6:30 pace and mainatined that through the first half.  I tried to pick it up a bit, but didn't start going faster until 2 to go.  Ended up running a 1:00.2 after a 30:30 first half, so I was happy with that.  Passed a couple people in the last couple of miles which is always nice.  6:25 ave for the run.  

Cooled down just over a mile with Hunter afterward.  8:15 ave
