| I went on a run from my parents house in Highland. The weather was wonderful today. I saw 1 moose, 43 elk, a pheasant and tons of deer. It was really cool. The mileage was relaxed and easy. It is nice to just enjoy running without the stress of racing right now. |

| I went on a long slippery run all over salt lake. I didn't see very much wildlife, but it was a very enjoyable run. I think I spotted 15 deer or so, but nothing else, besides a large black lab which tried to bite me. Stupid Dog! I am still working on increasing my mileage, and I am debating how aggressively I want to race this year. We will see. |

| I went on another slippery run on the trails above Salt Lake today. It was awesome. The Boneville Shoreline trail is so packed during the summer, but during the winter hardly anyone runs it. I have a little pain in my hamstring, and one the top left side of my right knee. I rolled my muscles out with the stick yesterday after the run, and today it feels much better. |

| I ran around Salt Lake again. It has been great. my hamstrings and calves are still tight, but I feel pretty healthy. |

| I ran a good 6 miler around SLC today. There is only about 1 inch of snow on the streets. So that was nice because it provided traction. |

| I had to get up early to run before a long day at work. These miles were a little slow and sore at first, but then they got to feeling easy and fun. I feel like I am getting into better shape. |

| My legs are feeling pretty good right now. An easy 15 miles is helping up my confident for the future races. I am feeling better and better as far as my overall fitness goes. I have to run hard this week, because next week I will be eating 24-7 on a cruise to Mexico with Meagan's family. Yea! |

Well today I finally feel fast again. It has been a while since I have felt this way. I am pretty stoked with it. The 10 miles were great besides this persistant cough that is bugging me.

| This morning I ran with the other Salt Lake Running Company employees. It was a nice run with some intervals. The legs were surprised with the speed, but they still felt good the entire time. I am looking forward to running in 80 degree weather next week. It will be a nice change from the 30 degree weather this morning. |

| I got up early and plugged a nice run through SLC. The roads were pretty dry with small patches of ice. I am now looking for a training partner in SLC. The solo runs have become too boring and repetitive. I am debating on running the Salt Lake winter series 5k this weekend. We will see. |

| I ran this in 1:37 which felt pretty comfortable. It was nice to head out to the Jordan River Parkway because it is extremely flat. 13.5 miles down 5,000 to go ;) |

| This was a fun run. I decided to do it last second to run with the great Triathlete BJ Christensen. It was a blast. BJ, Jeff and I went out at 5 minutes the first mile with BJ in the lead until half way. At that point I took over the pace and soon it was just Jeff and I running. With about 600 m left I backed off and coasted in. Jeff ran great today, as did tons of other athletes. It was a fun event. Lots of people, but the coarse was pretty boring. Oh Well. |

I got up and ran an easy 7.5. These miles were not quite as exciting as the Superbowl. I feel good, not sore at all. So that is a positive.
11.5 in the evening after work. I am finally locking in on the 7 min mile pace. The IT Band is tight, but I think a good massage will loosen it up.

| I decided to see how the trails up city creek canyon are this year. They are icy-snowy-muddy. The trails broke in my New Balance shoes. So that is nice. The weather was super warm this afternoon, 48 F. Well better go make dinner and finish up some reading. |

I got up early and ran with Chad and Josh. Talk about great runners. It was nice to have some company. They told me about last year's St George Marathon. Sounds like a ton of fun. The mileage was enough for this morning. I will see how I feel this afternoon. |

| I went on a nice 9.3 miles this evening. I wasn't feeling well this morning, and decided it would be better not to get up and run. The IT Band is feeling better, although it is still too tight for my liking. |
