Finally made it up for a morning run. 5.25 on the treadmill before work. Heel hurts a little, but not too much.

PM: So I left work early today to transport a colleague to the Moran Eye Center at the University of Utah because he couldn't drive cuz ( would it surprise some of you to know that high school students actually use "words" like cuz in there essay writing? They actually write serious academic papers as if they were texting) his eyes were dilated....

So I made it home early enough to relieve my old lady (I'm seeing how long it takes Ann to see that I've referred to her as my old lady) of some of the child rearing responsibilities and took Abby to swim practice. Went across the street to the gym and pounded out 6.25 miles on the treadmill.

Saw Andrea at the gym doing a brutal hot tub workout.

A DOUBLE TODAY!

8.25 on the treadmill in 60 minutes. Did quite a few minutes at what could almost be described as tempo pace. Exciting.

Then I braved the Highways of Death for the drive home. That was a serious deluging of snow! Didn't like having the little bitty Honda either. It took me one hour to get home from Sandy.

Got home, shoveled snow. Sitting by the fire now with a blanket, refreshing beverage, and an attention starved dog.

I did a bunch of cross training plus about 2 miles on the treadmill. Rode pretty hard for a half hour on the spin bike. The seven mile total for the day I just completely made up.

Crazy, fun, and eventful day. Wish I had energy to write more.

One mile warming up with the crew at the Oval this morning, but mostly just playing coach. 5.25 COLD MILES AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD this afternoon.
