| Nothing today. Stayed up late last night watching a movie with my son who's headed on a mission in two weeks. Family time for the next two weeks as much as possible. | | Add Comment |

| Ran a 10k in 49 minutes. Not super fast, but I didn't start out intending to do a fast run. Then, as usual, one thing led to another and before you know it I'm racing the clock again. Great to run outside though. Terrific weather. |

| Spin 17 and run 6. Great workout. Took my son to the MTC today to go to the Knoxville, TN mission. Awesome experience. He's gone now! We miss him terribly already, but he is in the right place at the right time of his life and he will learn to love God and serve others. Very exciting. |

| Only had a short time, so I ran one 9 min mile. Then ran alternating 9 min and 6:40 min (9mph) pace quarter miles for 3 miles (6 fast quarters). First speedwork in a while. It felt great. I'm excited to push my speedwork more this year and see what that brings. |

| Run Spin Run. Kids are out of school so I didn't have to hurry home to see them off and was able to fit in a total of 5 miles including the spin class. HR averaged 159 over 45 minute spin class. Good effort. Sweat like a pig! |

| Progressive run. Ran first at 6.7mph on TM (9min/mile). Then 6.9, 7.2, 7.5, 8, 8.5, and 9 (6:40min/mile) for last 3/4. That put me at an average 7:45min/mile pace for 1 hour, which is when you have to reset the TM's at the gym. |

| Started easy, but did a nice progressive run with the goal of averaging 7:30 pace to get 8 miles in before the treadmill auto stops at 1 hour. Then I ran 3 more miles at 8:34 pace. I also make sure I climb some and today I climbed over 500 feet over the course. |

Another ski day in Sun Valley after they got dumped on with 12 inches of powder last night. One of the most amazing days of skiing of my life. Simply awesome. Powder all day long. then amazing sunshine with brilliant blue skies in the afternoon.
Then an endurance drive back home. Icy roads on the freeway all the way home. Took us about an hour and a half longer than usual to make the journey. Very scarey, but with kid prayers and a few of my own we made it home safe! | | Add Comment |

| After beating up my legs on the slopes the last two days and feeling a bit under the weather, I thought I'd take it easy today. But the treadmill I got on gave me 99 minutes instead of the usual 60 (which I can just restart) before auto stopping. So in a moment of excitement at this opportunity to see what I could do in 99 minutes I reset my goals and completed 12 miles. In minute paces I ran 10, 9, 8:34, 8:27, 8:20, 8:13, 8:06, 8, 7:47, 7:30, 7:03, 7. From about mile 2 through mile 7 I dialed up the incline on the the first 1/4 mile to 5.0 to similute some hill climbing and ended up climbing 600 feet over the course of the run. Good day. I even had a slight cold last night and I think it blew that out of my system. |
