AM: 1.5 mile warm-up around the block a couple times then met Jake for a run up in Millcreek. We ran up the road from the gate, the road being packed snow this time of year. 3.25 miles up, 3.25 miles down. The down was more fun. Jake's dog Mesa joined us and I estimate she did about twice our mileage. I suggested to Jake that he should attach a gps watch to her collar.

PM: 1 mile jog.

AM: From home - 3 X around Sugarhouse Park.

PM: 4 mile walk.

Everyone over 40 should stop what they're doing and go to outsideonline.com and read Why I Still Love Racing at 82. It's maybe the best thing I've read about continuing to take running seriously as a sport as we age.

AM: 10.5 miles around Liberty Park for consecutive Christmas Run #43 dating back to 1979 when I was a freshman in high school when I went for a run to try out my new Sub-4 running shorts and Adidas Marathon '80 trainers.
