You should see all the new treadmills and equipment they put into my club here in Sandy. It'll spoil a runner really quick.

The weather lately has been just crazy lately. I debated on wearing a singlet this afternoon on my run.. (Opted for the T-shirt to not look out of place:) I can remember ONE day being 65 degrees or so in early Feb back when I was in high school. I stress that ONE day though..

It feels unnatural.
