Shooting for an easy 25 miles this week with a good long bike ride on Saturday. Should have iced the foot over the weekend (left foot, big toe knuckle). Amazing what a difference that makes. Felt a little twinge this morning, but iced after and will tonight and will probably be good for 10 tomorrow morning. That's the goal. Signed up for the Striders Winter Racing Circuit over the weekend.

Left foot big toe knuckle was sore for first 4 miles. Going to dial up the ice water and ibuprofen and see if I can get rid of this problem.

I'm not sure I can really call these easy miles. I hiked with three other freinds to the top of Chinscraper summit starting in the dark at 7am. We climbed 4,000 feet and then ran down the other trail back to the base. Awesome. I love running on the trail. However, I'm paying for it now with soreness!

Still getting over the soreness of Saturday's climb and run. Glad to break things up a bit with 5 miles on the treadmill. Here comes winter!

Still recovering from Saturday's shocking effort. Quads are more fried than after my first marathon. Weird. Should be feeling better tomorrow.

Easy workout on the treadmill, but mixed in some Fartlek. Every mile at .9 I jumped off the treadmill (Sportsplex in Kaysville) and ran downstairs, around the basketball court and back up to the treadmill and then continued. cranked it to 9.9mph for the last 1/2 mile because I knew it was time to go, but I wanted to get in at least 6 miles.

Long treadmill run. Mixed it up with speeds and incline. Treadmill track got hot under my feet! Treadmill limits time to 1 hour before it resets. Did 7 miles in 59 minutes and another 7 miles in 57.5 minutes and climbed 250 feet each hour. Added another mile at 10 min pace to cool down and make it 15.

Went to a 2 1/2 hour spin class to start Thanksgiving Day. Ate 1/4th of a cookie with Crickets in it that our spin class instructor (Kyle Brown) made. The crickets weren't noticeable. My wife also tried it! Went for 1 ski run at Snowbasin to hit opening day. Ski'd on the telemark skis and was glad it came back to me since last year was my first season skiing telemark style.

Sick with the flu. But went to run and try and sweat it out. Also went skiing for four runs. Conditions are the best I've seen this early in the season.
