Ran Loafer. Felt pretty good and was able to make it all the way to the gate without any walking.

Up and down Provo canyon with Dan and Ken. The uphill into headwind part wore me out. Couldn't keep up with the boys on the way back down.

Felt pretty good which was a bit of a surprise since I ate too much junk and didn't get full nights sleep.

Attempted once again to try and successfully run the Zen trail loop without getting mixed up and having to improvise. Was unsuccesful once again but everything ended well and I'm sure next time I'll get it right :)

Weather can sure change in a hurry! Back to winter mode with temps in the 30's with rain, wind, sleet, and snow. Funnest part was being pelted in the face with ice pellets.

Perfect weather for a morning run and not too much wind. Felt pretty dandy and was pleased to notice that my easy pace/mile seems to have dropped about 30s or so the last week or 2.
