| I wasn't mentally prepared to see 16° on the thermometer this morning. I wimped out. Instead of running in the dark and cold I ended up running at noon, when it was sunny and 38°. Much better. I enjoyed my run along the canal. I didn't run really fast but got a little faster every mile (8:52, 8:32, 8:23, 8:19, 8:04) and averaged 8:25/mi overall.

| I expected others but ended up running the 2000 N hill route alone. At least the bikers we always see came by. I didn't chase any of them up the hill, but at least I got out and ran. |

| I ran the water tank hills alone in the cold and dark this morning. Just me and my headlamp. I'll be honest, I was a little nervous about coming upon some glowy eyed predator alone in the dark.

| It was great to not run alone again this morning. Both Wayne and Kent were there and Kevin caught up to us shortly after we started. We were only missing Larry, who I hope has been running on the beaches in Cancun this week. We didn't run fast (9:31/mi average) but ran steady, getting a little faster each mile. My goal is just to maintain a 30+ mile per week base and try to get/stay healthy between now and the end of the year, run a respectable time at the St. George half marathon in January, begin to add miles and a little speed, run a good time at the Spectrum 10K in March, and then continue adding miles to get ready for the Squaw Peak 50 in June (hopefully I get in).

| I ran 10 miles on the canal road with Larry, Wayne and Kevin. After running alone a few times this week, it was nice having company. The temperature was in the low 30's. I wore shorts in hopes that I could run a little faster without tights. It's been a little frustrating running in the cold. The same effort seems to produce a significantly slower pace than in warmer weather. We did manage to get in one mile in just under 8:00 pace, but we were working harder than we thought we should have to. At least it was hard for all of us. Misery loves company.
