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.

On vacation in Sun Valley. Ski'd from 9:30 to 4pm. Great snow. Then went swimming with the kids. A unique and wonderful endurance day!

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!

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.

It would have been an easy outside run if it hadn't been between 5 and 15 degrees outside this morning. However, besides the cold it was a good run with Summit Busters running club, mainly Troy Anderson. Averaged 8:47. Nice way to start the year.
