9 miles Holladay route. I ran into a group of deer along Cottonwood Lane. Beautiful sunrise. Picked up the last mile and ran a 6:30. Forecast calls for snow tomorrow (Boo!!!)

Later AM: 55 minutes of Max Interval Plyo P90X.

Super windy today! 9 miles through Holladay. I am so sore from P90X yesterday. But I love being sore...it means improvements are happening!

4 miles up the BC trail and then a little tempo on the way back down. I kept it under 7:40 on the way up and 6:35-6:45 on the way down. My legs are still a little sore from Monday so I didn't push too hard. I passed a guy on the way down who got really upset that I passed him so he picked up his pace to try to catch back up with me. Needless to say, he didn't catch me. Chicked!

15 miles along the JRPW. I ran into Papa Price (my high school running daddy) and he said my hamstrings looked fantastic. Ha ha! Then I got stopped by an old guy who said I was crazy for wearing shorts but I had the nicest legs he'd ever seen. Wow, I could barely run back home because my head was so big and full of leg compliments. 7:15 AP. 

I am running/hiking Grandeur Peak on Saturday so I did my long run earlier in the week.

6 easy recovery miles. The weather has been so dreary this week. I'm missing those bright blue skies. I'm excited for tomorrow!

I met my friend Jordan at 6:00 am and we drove up Millcreek to Church Fork. We ran/power hiked up Grandeur Peak. Wow...it was beautiful! We watched the sunrise, snapped some pics and ran down. There was snow on pretty much the whole trail but it wasn't too slippery. After Jordan dropped me off at my car, I ran along Wasatch to get some more miles in. I ran into Tom Fletcher and his crew and ran with them for about 3 miles. They were pushing it so we ran sub 7:00 pace. By the time I turned around and ran back to my car I was at 8.5 miles. I should have taken a gu because I was tired. 

PS- I think I'm becoming a trail runner. I love it.

16 miles with Daniel and then 4 more on my own at the Horse Park. Daniel and I ran from his house to Temple Square and then back up. Lots of climbing. My car said it was 19 degrees when we started. Brrrr! Pace was nice and slow. 7:40 AP.
