Out the door at 4:30 this morning for 10.25 miles in 1:22. I did the Foothill Loop plus some extra around Millcreek and Sugarhouse.

I'm going to the doctor this afternoon for a routine physical. Although it's not very routine for me since I haven't had one for seven years. I need to do better at that.

Treadmillin miles today. Started at 7:30 pace and finished around 6:30.

My niece Elizabeth is wrapping up her Spring Break visit to Utah today. She's thinking of applying the the U for medical school after she graduates from college next year. We crammed a lot of stuff in to just a few days. She got to watch my wife admit a gunshot wound to the head dude on Friday night and hung around the NCC for a few hours. This morning Ann was able to get her into the operating room to watch some brain surgery and Nathan Krah gave her a tour of the medical school this afternoon.

Running will be hit or miss the next couple days with parent-teacher conferences at school.

Managed to squeeze in a quick run plus some push-ups and sit-ups between the end of school and the start of parent-teacher conferences.

No work today so I did a morning run at a sane hour. 9.25 miles in 1:10. 

About six miles into the run I was running by my kids school when I discovered that virtually all the snow is melted from the field behind the school. So I stopped and did 6 striders on the grass at about 90% effort. Running on grass. Pretty cool. 

PM: Went to the gym and did a two mile warm-up jog on the treadmill then a "stair master tempo workout". I did 300 floors (6.25 miles) in 36:50. May have set a personal sweat record.

12.5 miles along the Jordan River Parkway. I felt generally crappy, sluggish, lethargic...

Glad to finish off a decent week though.
