Wayne and I ran a 4.7 mile Lindon loop @ 9:10/mi. I was pleased with being able to run that fast (relatively speaking) with little buttock pain. I plan to stick to 4-5 mile runs on Tue/Thu for a while, with a longer/slower run on Saturday.

Kevin and I ran a 4.2 mile route towards Cascade golf course and back @ 8:54/mi. It was pretty cold and it snowed on us the entire time. I kind of enjoyed it.
