Good way to start off the month.  Ran 4 miles along the trail in 29:39 (7:24/mile).  It was nice and warm today for Dec. 1st.  Shorts and t-shirt weather in the afternoon.

Four miles along the trail.  With the trail closed I've been going the same direction every day.  It gets old.  Total time was 30:53 (7:43/mile).  Felt a little tired, and the legs were a little sore.

A little different route today.  I ran down Independence Ave. and then headed back towards BYU instead of towards Geneva Rd.  I caught the trail under the 820 N bridge and added a little more before turning around and heading home to make it 4 for the day.  Total time was 29:36 (7:24/mile).
