| I ran the lighted streets of Orem with Larry this morning. The temperature was in the low 20's with a little breeze now and then. I dressed for the mid 20's and no wind and was a little cold now and then, but not too bad. At lunch time I felt like running a few more miles. I ran a little over 4 miles. Most of it was at 7:30/mi, gradually working up to 6:48/mi for the last half mile. | | Add Comment |

| I bought a new cold weather running suit yesterday and was set to try it out this morning but nobody else showed at 5:45am. I was hoping maybe to run with Tom at lunchtime so I opted to go back home and skip the morning run. I figured back-to-back two-a-days was probably pushing it at this point. At lunchtime, the temperature was in the mid-30's so I decided to run outside. I decided on a tempo run on Kuhni Road. I didn't have my Garmin, just the Timex Ironman I always wear, so after the run I measured the distance using Google Earth. Overall I averaged 8:03/mi for 8.6 miles (7:52/mi out, 8:15/mi back). My legs were pretty tired and a little tight after the run, probably due to the cold. | | Add Comment |

| The temperature was in the 40's this morning prior to the pending storm and colder temperatures, so I decided to run this morning instead of at lunchtime. There was a pretty good wind that cooled things down, but it wasn't too bad. I was hoping at least Larry would show up at 5:45am, but I ended up running alone. My legs felt very tired. That probably has something to do with the extra miles and faster pace the past couple of days. Today I just wanted to put in some easy miles while trying to maintain a decent pace and good form. I averaged 8:38/mi for the 5.3 miles. The half mile paces were 9:14, 9:00, 8:52, 9:15, 9:02, 8:46, 8:32, 8:01, 7:54, 7:41. I felt like I maintained a steady effort throughout. The times show that it took a while, but I gradually loosened up and was able to gradually pick up the pace. | | Add Comment |

| Today was a basketball day. I played at 8:00, my son Adam at 10:00, my daughter Emily at 1:00, the BYU Cougars in the afternoon, and the Utah Jazz in the evening. We had 12 show up for my game. It was fun fellowshipping, but I didn't get a lot of playing time (and I'm the "coach"). Driving home after my game I saw Larry, Kevin, Wayne, and Jolene starting their run. I decided to hurry and run with them for a while before Adam's game. Andrew drove me to find them. We were lucky and found where they had gone pretty quickly. I ended up running five miles with them before stopping off at Adam's game. The run was cold, and snowy/icy in some spots, but I enjoyed it. We didn't push hard. | | Add Comment |
