Run Far

Ran a mile outside before I decided it was too cold for me. Finished on the treadmill.

Ran on the treadmill again. Can't wait for the weather to warm up. Looks like it will at the end of this week.

I ran on the treadmill again. This cold snap we are having has been brutal. I hope the whole month of January doesnt end up being this cold. I miss running outside and it has been less than a week. 

I was able to run at work today on the treadmill. Felt really strong. I am so ready to get outside and run it is driving me crazy.

Ran outside today. It didn't warm up as much as I thought it would but it sure felt warmer than it has been. Ran in a new pair of shoes today so that is always fun. My old shoes were well past on the mileage. I was pretty impressed with how well the Mizuno's have held up though.Ended up getting another pair of them.

Ran outside after the family trip to the dentist. It was pretty slick outside. I think it was freezing fog. I took it nice and easy to avoid any slips. Felt really good and the temp felt good. Pretty sad when you think 20 degrees feels warm.

I was able to run outside and avoid most of the slushy snow. Got home and my socks were damp. Ended up driving over to the Sunnyside path and running down it a few miles to the Community Park and running around the path more times than I could keep track of. It was a good thing I wore my Garmin.

Decided I had better run inside today on the treadmill. Watched some old movies on tv and hung out with my family. Averaged 7:24 minute miles for the ten. Nothing spectacular just good steady miles on a miserable day outside.

Way too cold to run outside today. Ran on the treadmill today. Looks like it will be cold for a few days.

I have been on nights at work. Woke up around noon feeling restless. I decided a run might help use up some energy. Ran on the treadmill and had a good sweat going when I finished. One more night shift.

Ran later than I really wanted too but I was still able to run. Oh the blessing of owning a treadmill. Although when I was running on it I wasn't feeling so blessed to own one. I felt really strong and settled into my pace pretty early. Overall good run on the treadmill on another Idaho cold day.

Treadmill run in the basement. Looks like it won't be warming up in the next few days.Finally starting to feel like I'm learning how to train on the treadmill. Not that I'm not ready to head outside.

Really was tempted to try and run outside today. It felt like it had warmed up a bit. I seen the local high school track out running and it mae me want to get outside. Ended up running on the treadmill. By the time I got home from helping a friend move and running errands it was pretty late and the temps were dropping. It does look like the weather is changing though. Ran a route of rolling hills that really hammered my legs.

Ran tonight on the treadmill. Felt really good until the last mile and a half. I hadn't eaten that well at work today and ended up paying for it.

Ran on the treadmill at work right at the end of my shift. Nothing too spectacular.

Ran on the treadmill tonight. I have been busy with home improvement projects and lost yesterday's run. Felt really really good tonight and well rested. Hopefully tomorrow warms up like it is suppose to so I can get a outside run in.

Ran outside. It took a few miles to get back in the groove of outside running.

I'm going to try this again. Apparently I don't know what day it is. Endedup posting it a day ahead. Thanks Rye for looking out for me. Easy miles on the treadmill tonight before work. Averaged 7:24 pace.

Ran hard on the treadmill on my rolling hills course. Really had to pick up the pace the last two plus miles to finish in time for movie night. Treadmill ended up shuting down on the last two miles. I had to restart it. Anyone else been having trouble with the Ifit program? This is the second time since the updated their site.

Ran on the treadmill. It just looked wet and slushy outside. Wanted to get a run in early in case I don't get a chance tonight.

Well it's now midnight and I just finished running on the treadmill at work. Snowing like crazy still. Nice to be able to ru  indoors. Didn't plan on running that far but I felt pretty good.

Another late run on the treadmill at work. Not that I'm complaining. It is nice to be able to tun at work if I haven't been able to run at home that day. Felt really strong while running and really good after. Hopefully that means my fitness level is improving and I can keep it up through the rest of winter.

Treadmill run tonight. Took a few miles to fall into the rythmn. I have felt sick off and on today. Hope I'm not coming down with something like the flu.

Got my run in early this afternoon. It was a good thing I did since I called into work. Treadmill miles.

Ran on the treadmill before work. Wasn't going to run today but the newest Runners World showed up in the mail so I started feeling guilty.

Treadmill miles at a pretty moderate pace for most of them.

Treadmill miles while watching the Super Bowl.

Just finished running on the treadmill at work. Got a chance during this busy Monday and thought I would take it. You never know when you will get the chance later.

One of the hardest treadmill workouts I have done so far. I felt really good and was able to get into the zone. I hope to get outside and run on my days off.

Only had a small window of time to get my run in tonight. Felt pretty happy with my pace and distance. Should be able to run outside tomorrow.

I was able to run outside today and the weather was perfect. Most of the streets were dry. It has been a while since I have ran outside due to work and weather. I was able to hold my pace and the miles flew by.

Ran up Sunnyside road to the top by the Bonneville County landfill. It was more climbing than I remembered but I felt pretty good. Not a bad day to run. It was nice to see a few runners out. Good run to finish the week out.

It looked alot warmer outside than it really was. But the roads were clear and the sun was out with no wind. Not a bad day to be outside. Felt just a little soreness from my last long run. I think it was due to the downhill portion of the long run.

Felt really good today. My legs had loosened up and I was able to run a steady pace with out feeling too much effort. Still cold outside but it beats the negative temps we had.

Very windy outside. Ran into the wind on the way out to try to make it easier on myself on the return. Probably should have run on the treadmill.

Ran up the Bone Rd. today. The sun was out and little to no wind. Still a little cold up on top. I turned around at about 8.5 instead of making the full loop. I was glad I did towards the end of the run. It really cooled down.

Perfect day to run. The weather was unbelievable. I felt really good and was able to maintain my pace with little effort.

Ran a little later outside than I normally do but I made it home before dark. Felt really good just got cold towards the end of the run. So ready for spring running. Ran what I call a negative half. Basically ran the last six miles faster than the first. Hope to get some runs in this week but it looks like it is going to be busy at work.

Felt really good since I wasn't able to run yesterday due to work. Got the run in early on the treadmill.

Ran on a treadmill at work that was probably older than I was. Our workout room was going through some maintenance. I know I shouldn't complain after all I am running at work. Kept the pace up and the treadmill handled it so all in all it was a good run.

Had to run outside due to my treadmill dying. I have a new part on the way and a technician that will install it. Thank goodness it is under warranty. I braved the storm and got my run in. Felt guilty since this weeks mileage was less then impressive. It was a long week at work. This next week should be better.

Got home from church and started feeling stir crazy with the sun outside. Went for a walk with the family around the block and was able to convince the wife to let me sneak off for a run. Most of the roads are dry and the wind wasn't too bad. Great run on a sunny winter day.

Overcast and a little on the cold side. Did some hill running so my legs are feeling hammered about now. I've been recovering pretty well so I thought I would push it today. Hope I don't regret it tomorrow.

Ran around the greenbelt a few times and then I ran home. I was able to avoid most of the slush. Felt a little sore on my ankle the last couple of miles nothing serious just a little soreness in the muscles. I will have to take it easy tomorrow and see how it feels. Over all a good run in some new shoes. Rye I'm trying out the Brooks Ravenna 4s. 

Perfect day to run outside. The sun was out off and on and the temp was in the upper 20s with little to no wind. I warmed up for the first half mile and then worked at holding my marathon pace for the run. The pace felt good and is starting to feel natural. Finished the last mile slower for a cool down. The ankle felt pretty good. I think the day of rest yesterday was a good idea.

I used today as a recovery run. Yesterdays run took a lot out of my legs. Ran a nice easy pace and felt pretty good. Today felt colder then yesterday. I think with the fog and humidity in the air it felt colder then it was.

Felt really good today. I took two days off to rest and get over a head cold I have not been able to kick. The weather was nice and I was able to find my pace early and settle in. Ran in my new Brooks Raveena's they seem to be pretty solid shoes.

Ended up getting home from training at work earlier then I thought I would. I met up with a friend who is training for his first race so we ran a few miles together. Not a bad finish to the day.

Good run today on the treadmill at work. Felt really good I think that is due to having yesterday off. I had the intention of running but the weather turned crazy and I caved. I'm still feeling guilty. My treadmill at home is still down but the parts have arrived so it should be good to go about the time the weather cooperates.

Ran at work on the treadmill again. Felt really good, ran at marathon pace for five miles and ran at 6:27 pace for the other five. Wanted to run outside. This afternoon the weather was awesome.

Ran outside at work. The sun was out but it was pretty windy out on the desert. Felt good to be outside running. 

Awesome day for running. First day I have been able to run in a short sleeve shirt. Sure felt like spring today. Getting excited for marathon season.

Not as warm today but a good run overall. Ran a few miles with a friend so that helped the time fly. Felt really good. Signed up today for my first marathon of the year so that should help keep me focused.

Perfect day for running. The wind was calm and the temps were mild. Felt pretty good for most of the run. Started to feel a little fatigue as I was finishing up. Think I'm recovering from yesterdays run.

First day of the year where I was able to run in shorts and a t shirt. I thought yesterdays weather was good. Perfect spring run. I don't want to get my hopes up but I hope the snow is gone for good. Felt really good on the run but my guts are hurting now that I'm finished. I think it will be a long night at work.

What a difference a day makes for the weather in Idaho. Windy out there today. Still fighting the gastrointestinal issues today. Decided to take it easy today.

Got myself out the door and started running into the wind. It was blowing about 25 miles an hour and holding steady. Wasn't as bad when I could run where it was sheltered. On my way up Sunnyside hill I seen a friend as crazy as I was out running we decided to run up to the top and then turn around. Not only was it windier and colder on top we were climbing a pretty good hill. Good run when we finally made it off the hill. Finished running my loop for an even 20 mile run. Not super fast but a good effort.

Great day to run. Took it pretty easy today. A little sore from yesterdays run. I think the down hill with the hard winds really took it out of me. Felt good overall just tight in the hamstrings.

Not the best day to run. It has been raining off and on all day. I got a late start and felt off all day. I think I'm coming down with something. Not a bad run once I got going. Had to cut it a little short due to some stomache distress. 

Ran tonight at work on the treadmill before coming home. Just trying to get the miles logged in with the crappy weather we have had.

Another run at work on the treadmill. Alternated the incline and had a good sweat going by the time I was finished.

Ran on the treadmill when I got home from work. Treadmill seems to be working a lot better with the new monitor. Warmed up for a mile and then ran my marathon pace for nine miles. Cooled down for about .3 miles and stretched out. Feel really good and starting to get excited for the marathon coming up.

Ran outside. A little windy outside but not too bad. Felt good and was able to hold a nice steady pace.

Nice day for some hill running. Ran up by Blacktail. Felt really strong.

Got home at work early and had to head out. The weather was amazing and it was driving me nuts to be cooped up inside. Finished my run right before dark. Perfect temp and good run.

Another evening run. We got a little rain earlier and it was nice to run when everything had that clean rain smell. Just ran a nice easy pace and really enjoyed the run.

Got up early and ran the Teton Running red egg Easter hunt on Sunnyside with my wife. Ended up being a lot of fun and was a good end to the weekly mileage. Had the intention of going out later in the evening but I was feeling pretty fatigued from the week.

Best day of the year. After church I started getting the itch to get out and run. Felt really good. I think the easy day yesterday helped with the recovery for the week. Started to get antsy for the marathon.

Nice easy run on a beautiful day. 

Ran one of my hilly routes today. Was able to hold my marathon pace through the uphill miles. Felt really good today which is a bit of a relief. I have been fighting gastrointestinal problems after my last few runs. Which was making me nervous for my marathon coming up.

Windy this afternoon. I should have ran first thing this morning when I got home from work but I was dragging. I decided to run after I got my truck washed. It's amazing how fast the wind moved in. Started out running into the wind so that helped. Felt well rested.

Had a good run with Tara this morning. It was a perfect day weather wise. I was worried about the wind but it was calm and the temps were cool. It was a lot of fun to talk running and racing. 

Got home super late and just felt wore out. Decided not to push it. I had eaten very little at work through out the day.

Wanted to check my fitness level. Felt really good so that is a good sign.Was a little worried since I felt off yesterday. 

Its been a busy week.

Felt really good today. The weather was great and my legs felt strong. Ihave taken it easy this week do to my work schedule and feeling a little run down. I haven't wanted to push my luck this close to the Marathon.

A lot better day today then yesterday. The wind was barely blowing when I went out compared to 45+ mph like yesterday. Felt really good today hope I feel that good on marathon day.

Decided to go run after watching the news coverage of the tragedy in Boston. I had just got done watching the race about forty-five minutes before and was getting back from running errands when I turned on the news and saw. I'm still stunned.

Forty degrees with a wind coming out of the north. I felt really strong but the cold wind sure made it a hard run.

Ten easy miles on a very windy day. I have started to taper for my race.

Another windy day in Idaho. I headed out with the goal of breaking in some new shoes for the race. They felt really good so it shouldn't be too big of a deal to put a few more miles on them in time for the race. Saucony Mirage 3s.

Easy pace on the treadmill followed by some stretching.

Working at tapering for the race but it was such a nice day I had to get out. Felt really strong. I took it easy.

Treadmill miles after church. Starting to feel restless with this tapering.

Treadmill easy miles.

Ran six miles progressively finishing at marathon pace before we left for Utah. It's marathon time.

I went into this marathon with the goal of running under three hours but in the days leading up to the race I began feeling like I was coming down with something. My two girls had been sick so it was only a matter of time. I woke up Saturday morning feeling better but my legs felt fatigued. Not a good sign before the race had even started. I caught the bus and rode up to the canyon starting line. As soon as I climbed off of the bus I realized I had under dressed. It was cold. There were a lot of fires going to help people stay warm but there was piles of people around them. As the race started a group of runners took off and I fell into pace with them. Looking down at my watch I realized they were running under 6 minute miles a lot faster then I wanted to do. I slowed down and started running my own race. After a few miles I started to find my sync and the miles started to fall away. I finished the first half around 1:27 and was still feeling strong. I didn't really start to fade until mile 21.  Luckily my sister in law Tara was waiting at mile 22 and ran the last few miles with me and pushed me. I really don't know where I would have ended up if she hadn't. The last mile it was everything I had to keep moving my legs but I was so close to my goal. I crossed the finish line and realized I had did it, I had just run a marathon in under three hours! A short time later we found out I had taken second place overall I was blown away. When I had looked at previous year results I figured I might be able to run in the top ten if I was lucky.

My splits: 6:40, 6:43, 6:40, 6:37, 6:36, 6:41, 6:41, 6:36, 6:35, 6:33, 6:38, 6:36, 6:38, 6:41, 6:48, 6:48, 6:53, 6:57, 6:59, 7:16, 7:22, 7:24, 7:20, 7:26, 7:13, 6:56. The Garmin watch came through for me.

Ran ten easy miles to see how the legs felt today. I felt pretty good the muscles are still a little sore but not nearly as I expected. Good to get out. I was going stir crazy.

Nice evening to run. Spent the day doing yard work so a run outsidewas a nice break. A little wind up on Foothill road. Still a little sore on my left quad muscle toward the outside. I feel like I am recovering well from the marathon.

Ran when I got home from work. Tried to get home before it got too dark. Still feel like I have a chest cold.

Ran today at work. Super nice day just ran out of time.

Another run at work. The wind has picked up and it was hot. Still feel like I got the crud.

Met up with the running group at Teton Running for five easy miles down Sunnyside. Good way to get out of the wind.

Had to run in the middle of the day. It was a little warmer then I would have liked. Overall it was a great run. Feeling a lot better. I might be getting over the crud!

Windy with thunderstorms that moved in right after I got started. I guess thats what you get when you run in the evening. Felt really good after I got the muscles warmed up.

Perfect temp for an evening run. Still battling the wind and looks like I will be for the next week. Felt really good. Will be running tomorrow helping pace the last 6 miles of the Ogden Marathon so I didn't want to trash my legs. It will be a quick trip down and back.

Ran down to the Ogden Marathon to run the last six miles with my sister in law Tara. It rained and rained. As I ran up the canyon I was amazed at how many people were still smiling even though they were sopping wet. Found Tara around mile 20. Tara was fighting an injury but was still in it. We were able to motor down the canyon and into Ogden. She finished strong. That looked like a brutal marathon where everyone had to earn it. Congrats to everyone who ran it.

A little colder outside than I thought but it was nice to get to go for a run at work. Warmed up and ran out to the highway and back. A bit of head wind on the way back that made me work to keep on pace. Not a bad run felt really strong. Mizuno Waves (blue.)

Woke up from sleeping a few hours when I got home from work and seen that it looked pretty nice outside. Decided to run what I call pick ups. One mile at marathon pace and one 20 to 30 seconds slower. Did that over the run and finished with the last mile about 15 seconds faster then marathon pace. ( Brooks Ravenna 4's)

Beautiful day to run. Nice and easy miles. Felt good just a little tired in the legs.

I'm struggling to call these easy miles. I felt like I really earned them. It was super cold and windy. I wanted to call it quits as soon as I started.

Ran up to the mouth of Pass Creek by Mackey. We have been camping and it was perfect weather for a run. I was running on a dirt road that was packed well so it was a great surface to run on. Probably the fastest I've ever run 12 miles. Had a bunch of miles at 6 or just under. I caught a cattle guard just right on the return trip. Right ankle is a little sore. Going to give it a day or two so it won't become a injury. Awesome to see some new country.

Ran over the Sunnyside Bone road loop with a friend trying to get ready for the Bone and Back race. A lot of good climbs but the weather was perfect running weather.

Hot outside. Should have carried some water on this run. Felt really good no nagging pain. Finished strong and treated myself to some ice cold water. Trying to get ready for the Bone and Back race in a few weeks.

Ran another seven miles at work tonight. Perfect temp out here on the desert. 

Windy, dusty run in the evening.

Ran early in the morning before the wind had a chance to pick up. Temperature was perfect for running. Cycled 26 miles later that evening. Very windy but a lot of fun.

Ten slow miles in 25+ mile an hour winds. It was about all I could do to stay on my feet. What is up with this wind this year?

Ran at work today. Windy like it has been most days this year in the late afternoon. Felt really good and was ready to get out and get some fresh air.

Carl and I parked the car at the Bone store and ran back to Idaho Falls. We wanted to run the last part of the course so we would be ready for next weeks Bone and Back race. The weather was perfect and it was nice to have some company on the run. We seen alot of runners running to get ready for next weeks race. There was also a bike race going on the last part so there were plenty of cyclist out. Seeing all the people out made the miles fly bye. Alot different then it was earlier this year when I seemed to be the only one dumb enough to be out running. 

Good run in the evening. 

Hills. I don't know what else to say. It was brutal.

Took a break from studying and just tried to relax.

Ran the Bone and back race today with a friend. Not a bad day. A little on the windy side but the overcast was nice. Awesome to run with a friend and help him finish his first Ultra.

Four miles pushing my 2 year old in the running stroller and then 10 miles on my own. Felt good a little fatigue in my legs. Overcast today so the temp was good.

Ran this evening. A little hotter then I like but there was a bit of a breeze that helped. Felt really good after taking a day off. My right ankle felt tight yesterday so I thought I would let it rest. I think the shoes I ran in on Saturday were on their last leg. I retired them after that race.

Ran this morning at work. The temp was perfect and it was awesome to run through the desert. Felt really good, n,o more ankle discomfort so it must have been the shoes I was wearing. 

Ran early before it got hot. Finished right as it was getting hot.

Another run in the morning. Fell into the pace early and just kept at it. Still looking for that next marathon.

Legs felt a little tired from yesterdays run but overall I felt great. Running in the morning to beat the heat seems to be working.

Ran in the evening before the fireworks started. Alot more humid then I thought it would be. Felt good until the last mile. I guess working all night and then sitting in the heat at the parade took more out of me then I thought.

Ran right after the thunderstorm we had this afternoon. It was a hot humid run that I took it pretty easy on. Thank goodness there was a bit of a breeze. I wanted to run this morning when I got home from work but I was hammered. I thought sleep was more important.

Had to run in the heat of the day again. This set of nights at work is killing me. 

Easy miles after a night shift. Weather was perfect for a easy run. Feels good to be back at it after such a long break. Its amazing how much the love of running comes back to you after you almost lose the ability to run at all. The ankle seems to be holding up nicely with the mileage. I now have to wear a compression sock to help with the blood flow in the foot but I can't complain.

Another run after a night shift. Legs feel good with little soreness in the ankle and foot.

Waited till later in the day to get my run in. I was dragging a little after coming g off my night set. Felt really good after I got a few miles into it. The weather was overcast with a light breeze. Started to sprinkle right as I got to my driveway.

Nice run in the late afternoon. Temp was about perfect.

Windy late run. I finished right at dark. I guess I shouldn't have put off the run till later in the day. I just about didn't get it done.

Ran out at work. A little windy but the weather was nice and cool.

Ran at work on the treadmill. I was aching to get outside and run but work was too busy. It was nice to use the treadmill to keep the pace honest.

Ran at work on the treadmill. Really tried to mix up the pace after I had warmed up a mile. Very little ankle discomfort. I think I am on the mend.

Unbelievable fall weather. Got home from working nights and took a nap for a few hours. Ran the foothill loop and was reminded why I love running in the fall. I was in a t shirt in the middle of November. That is unheard of for Idaho. The tendon in my ankle has healed up nicely.

Today was even warmer then yesterday. It was close to sixty degrees when I headed out. T-shirts and shorts again. Felt really strong. Ran out of gas the last 2 miles. I guess I should have ate something earlier.

Cooler today but not a bad day to put miles on.

Took today off to rest and recover.

Wind out of the north. A lot colder than I expected. Definitely turning to winter. I don't know if I'm ready to battle the cold. I felt really strong battling the wind.

Ran after church. Another windy day but I had to get out after that snow storm on Saturday. Windy again so I struggled to keep some type of pace running into the wind.

Ran today at work on the treadmill. Had a limited amount of time so I pushed it to get these miles. Felt really strong.

Don't know if I will get an opportunity tomorrow to run so I felt like I needed to really push myself today on the old treadmill. Felt great after I got warmd up. Got a good sweat going today.

Late run at work on the treadmill. Another busy day at work but I got my run in.

Ran on the treadmill at home tonight. Kept hoping I could make it home in time to run outside but it didnt happen. Warmed up and then set a 6:40 pace and held it until the last mile which I ran at 6:15. Felt good to get a sweat going after today. Ran while I watched Act of Valor. Awesome show that really helped pass the time.

Ran after church today. The weather looked good for a run so I had to get out and clear my head. Wanted to run yesterday but a friend called needing help right as I was heading out the door to run. So it made for a good rest day. Trying to stay in the groove of running to make it through the holidays.

Ran outside before work. Not a bad day for the end of November.

Perfectly clear day with no wind. Not one of the windmills was turning up on the east foothills, Ran some hills today. Ran hard up and recovered running down. Awesome fall running weather. Just waiting for the weather to change forcing me to the basement on the treadmill.

Another nice day to run. Got home from work this morning and helped my father in law for a few hours. By the time I got home I knew I had to get out and run. Nice easy miles. Made it home in time to shower and get ready for work. Needless to say I'm going to be trashed tonight at work. Hoping for a quiet night.

Felt really good today. I don't know if it was the rest day or all the Thanksgiving I ate the day before. I felt like I could have ran a lot farther but didn't have the time. Probably the last nice day of the year.

Quick miles after a day of running errands with the family.

Ten miles ran today in 30mph sustained winds.I have no idea how hard it was gusting. I should have stayed inside on the treadmill! These miles were earned.

Finally able to run again. Spent a few days so sick with some type of stomachs flu I was worthless. Ended up going through the whole family. Ran on the treadmill at work.

One easy mile warm up and then I ran at marathon pace for the ten. Was able to hold the pace a lot better then I expected but struggled the last 2 miles. I was out of gas. I guess a banana for breakfast is not a lot to go on. Still getting my appetite back from being sick.

Warmed up on my treadmill for a mile and then set the speed to 9mph to see if I could hold the pace for 10 miles. Felt really good. Stopped half way through to stretch for 3 minutes.

More miles on the treadmill tonight. Wishing this cold snap would end.

Treadmill miles early this morning. I have to go into work early tonight so I thought I had better get the miles in early today. Felt really good after my rest day yesterday.

Ran outside today. It was cold and I couldn't find my rythmn due to all the traffic I was battling. Finished the run frustrated.

A lot better today weather wise. Felt really good. Wind picked up a little the last 3 to 4 miles.

Ran after church today. The weather was warmer and the traffic was light. I made an excuse to my wife and headed out the door. Great winter day to run. I felt good and the effort felt relaxed.

Missed a few days due to work and other commitments. Not a bad day to run, a little on the cold side. ran over the Bone Road to Sunnyside Road. A lot of hills to climb but I felt good overall. 

Ran on the treadmill at work this morning. Nothing spectacular. Average 6:53 pace.

Ran at work on the treadmill. Average 6:40 pace.

Ran at work on the treadmill again. Felt good.

Ran outside today. The temperature was warmer which was nice but the roads were a bit on the wet side. Felt good to get outside and lengthen the stride. I always feel so cramped up running on the treadmill in the basement.

Ran in new territory today. Ran down in Blackfoot at my in laws. Nice to see new country but it was cooler than I expected. Froze the last 3 miles.

Ran at work today on the treadmill. Took yesterday off of running to spend some time with the family. Felt really rested and was able to hold my pace. Hoping to do a long run tomorrow.

Ran a couple of miles outside until I got so frustrated with traffic. I finally went home and finished on my treadmill. Felt tired in my legs. Thinking about a rest day tomorrow.

Felt really good after a rest day. A little cooler outside than I expected. A slight breeze out of the north, but I fell into a relaxed pace.

Another cold run. This breeze out of the north is brutal. Ran alot of pick ups on the hills. Finished the run good and tired. Not a bad way to finish out this years running. Here is to another great year of running ahead.
