Today is the last day of winter break:( Spring semester starts tomorrow! ahhh!!! But I ran the shriners run from the East track. I started at about 5 and really wanted to get done before it was dark. averaged 8:15ish going out to Shriners then I brought the average pace down to 7:52. My fastest run since I took that time off!:) I am coming back! Three good things came out of this run: 1) I finished before it was dark.... I averaged sub 7 minute pace coming back, 2) The drinking fountain was on! 3) It made me excited for the spring semester! As I was running through campus I saw a ton of people who had moved into the dorms today or yesterday just walking through campus, having fun, finding classes, making college look like fun! 7:52 average.

We did a 400 warm up then P90X.. It was a different experience:)

I walked outside and slipped and said NOPE. Not running outside so I hit the treadmill, elliptical and Bike then did calf raises. I finished my homeowrk then caught up on How I Met Your Mother.

This afternoon in the fog I got my run it. It was incredibly sketchy! I just did laps in Sugarhouse park slipping and sliding my way through. Average 8:55 because of the snow....

I didn't get a run in today because when I got home I did my homework then I had to plan my classes and all of the necessities for Medical School. When I looked at the clock it was 10:00 PM! Medical School is going to take A TON of time!

5 miles right after I ate Panda... Not a good idea! The whole run I thought I hated running, I am so slow, so fat, I should just quit. Hopefully tomorrow is better!

This run felt a LOT better than last night! I was inspired to listen to Let It Go from Frozen from Emily and it really does get you pumped! When I saw that movie (1 of 3 times I have seen it) I absolutely loved it! This song really got me pumped while running on the treadmill at the fieldhouse. I did 6 in the early afternoon. Then before I went and hung out with Giulia, I did a few more miles to finish on even mileage.
