8 miles along a dark Wasatch Blvd. I thought I'd escape the smog a little bit this morning but I forgot that there are about 2 street lights on Wasatch. I need a stronger head lamp because I couldn't see the ground. It was nice watching the sun and city wake up. 7:23 AP.

I decided to visit my old running friend today...the track. I ran at 10 o'clock and it was above 40 degrees so I thought, what the heck. I did a 4 mile warm up, 5x800 with 400 recovery. My splits weren't super fast but my goal was to get some good turn over in my legs and just work some dormant winter muscles. Splits were 3:03, 3:01, 3:00, 3:00, 2:56. Then I ran around my neighborhood until I hit 9 miles.

Easy recovery day. 7 miles around Murray. Pretty slushy/snowing/wet. At least the air is clean :)

Another easy day. 7 miles through Holladay. The roads were pretty slippery and I almost fell once. Sure glad I didn't! 7:19 AP.
