| I am in North Carolina for work this week. But that didn't stop me from finding a trail to run on. I found a nature trail that was a loop through a forest. It was a wide dirt trail with two bridges, but it was only .62 miles long. I ran the loop ten times. I went easy for the first mile, then I picked up the pace and ran between 7 and 8 minute miles for the rest. | | Comments(6) |

| Today I found a park that had several paved trails in and around the park. I was just going to run easy but there were other people running on the trails and make competitive nature came out. At one point my gps said I was doing a 6:20 pace. | | Comments(1) |

| I came back home today. Around 6 p.m. I headed out to the Mueller Park Trail. The trail was muddy, snowy, slushy and icy. The terrain was constantly changing. After 2 miles there wasn't any more dirt, just snow. The snow was very soft and I was sinking in two knees at times. At 2.4 miles I sunk in passed my knees and decided to turn around. When I got back to the trail head, I hadn't gotten in as many miles as I was hoping too, so I ran the switchbacks a second time. | | Add Comment |

| I ran on the Bonneville Shoreline Trail this morning up to the radio towers. There wasn't any snow on this trail. It was great. I was wearing the race shirt from the 2006 Ogden marathon and passed a guy going the other direction who was wearing the same shirt. The were lots of people out running a biking this morning. Now that the snow is melting everyone wants to get in shape. But those who trained hard through the winter are the ones that will turn heads at the Summer races. | | Comments(11) |
