Run for your life!

5.6 in the morning and 4.4 more at lunch.

Ran 5 miles this morning in 37:11 and then 3 more easy miles in the afternoon. Then I practiced my swim technique. Good practice. I think I'm getting it!

Lisa and I took a glorious tandem 63 mile ride from the gas station in Mtn. Green along the back of the Wasatch mountains up to Morgan, then up East Canyon and around the reservoir and the resort to where the road up to Big Mtn is closed. Then we turned around and rode back about 5 miles and turned up and climbed the Hogsback. On our descent we hit 50mph (ugghh...) then went back down East Canyon and along the East side of the valley and back to the Sinclair. We love riding together and even though it got chilly and dark towards the end it was very fun.

Ran 10.5 miles at a 7:46 average pace on a sunny Thanksgiving morning. A tough run on the heels of yesterday's long ride. But I was glad with the overall result. Then I played ultimate Frisbee with the family after Thanksgiving lunch. A very fun day.

Bought some new Brooks Launch shoes on Black Friday. The running store (Striders) is the only place I went. Nathan and I went to the gym in the afternoon and Nathan challenged himself to try a six minute mile, which he did! He was awesome. Great looking stride. I treated to hot chocolate after the run. 7 easy miles for me.

Trying to reach 2000 miles before year end while still swimming and riding. I was able to do a few extra miles this week to cram down the average weekly requirement. 10.5 miles today with 1/2 mile swimming.
