8.5 milles around Sugar House. Averaged almost 7:30/mile which is officially my new fast. 7:30 is the new 6:30 is my new motto.

Didn't want to run on the treadmill or the 38 degree rain so Abby and I went to the Olympic Oval and ran for an hour or so. We pretty much had the place to ourselves.

Went to the Red Box and rented the movie Max with Andy. Good movie to watch with your 10-year-old.

Breaking news...In a victory for culture and culinary sophistication, Waffle House is coming to Utah.

Proving that the South actually won the Civil War.

PM: No running, but lots of lifting in the Alta weight room with my team. Box jumps, jump roping, and bear crawls too.

Squeezed in a treadmill run between the end of school, track practice, and something we here at Alta call "Advanced Academics Night" where we showcase all our wonderful AP and concurrent enrollment options to the community. All I know is that few people show up, I have to be at work until 8 pm and I get paid an extra $50.00.

How's that for complaining? I am happy I have a job though.

Oh yeah...one of my miles was in 5:58!!!!!

Four times around Sugar House and a little bit around the neighborhood. I really felt good tonight.

1. I ran 8.25 miles on the treadmill.

2. I did a hard mile on the stair stepper.

Are you going to liberate us girls from male white coorporate opression?

I purged my soul, perhaps, of an immenent collapse.

More Muzak cooleness at the gym with Sonic Youth and the Replacements. Gen Xers must be the primary gym goers these days. Kool Thing by Sonic Youth could be my new favorite treadmill song.
