Forgot my garmin today, but JulieE had hers and JulieC had her watch. Met both of them at the Orem soccer park and ran on the canal out and back. Wasn't feeling the best, still have stuff in my chest and was wheezy for the run plus having preM issues and sciatic pain was more than usual. 2:05/8:05

| Michelle came out and ran with my this morning in a snow storm. I have a hard time in the snow, I always have. I can't run fast in the stuff. Had a good run and a nice chat with Michelle. Yoga/stretching I do this daily but hardly ever put it in. Abs/back |

Took my dog up on the snow filled trails. It was slow going esp. when the show got to my mid calf area. It was fun though my dog loves the snow and it doesn't seem to slow him down at all. It slowed me from a 9 min avg pace last monday to a 10:30 avg. pace. But I really don't care cause its all for fun. I saw a hunter, that was weird. Abs/back MV

| Decided to wait until the sun came up and warmed things up. It went from 8 to 12 degrees by the time I went out, but sunny which makes a big difference. The roads and side walks are still a mess, which doesn't slow Brune down, but it does me. I can't believe how many people don't shovel their walks. Came home and did 20 mins on the elliptical. 8:45 avg. pace |

Went to the Orem fitness center for a run on the TM, another chilly morning that I didn't want to go out in. I wasn't sure how far or fast i would go today so just started running. It felt good to have sound footing and to go faster too. I did a 2 mile warm up and then did 2 miles @ 6:45 pace and then 1 @ 7:15 then 1@ 6:45 and the rest between 7 and 7:30's. Felt really good. 1:15:00/7:30 Abs/back weights upper and stretching

| Ran on my own today, the temps were a lot warmer than they have been but we got plastered with snow last night. As we all now I have a hard time in the snow. I debated on going to the gym to use the treadmill but just decided to go outside. Two days in a row on the treadmill didn't sound fun. Any way my pace was all over the place because of the snow and lack of people who shovel. Got some clear places here and there but not much. 1:37:22/8:55 I was actually surprised this didn't say an 11 min avg cause that what it felt like. |

| Went to the OFC to run on the TM. Was not as excited this time as last and didn't feel as good but I figure one treadmill run a week to get a good run in that I am not freezing and sliding on the ice. Warmed up 2 miles and then did 2 miles @ 6:42 and 6:36 then 1 miles at 7:54 then one more mile @ 6:33 then the rest between 7:30 and 8:00 pace. Wanted to stop at 8 but made it to 9 and then only one more to 10 so i did it. 1:16:23/7:38 Abs/back weights upper |

| Took Brune on the Provo river trail (pavement). We started at Wills and went up into the canyon. Bad winds at the mouth but the temps were mild. The path was icy in spots and worse once I got into the canyon. 58:36/8:21 |

Took my car down to the fix it shop. I just paid 800 buck to put a new radiator in (and brakes) and it over heated last night driving around to look at lights. Geez that really pisses me off. So anyways I ran home with my dog 6 miles and then added on 2 more by myself. Air quality is horrible I could taste it. 1:06:24/8:17 Abs/back

| Met Michelle and McKenzie out in SF to run in the freezing cold 11 degrees and colder out in the river bottoms I am sure. I had to much on top, I felt like the pilsbery dough boy and not enough on the bottom so my buns were cold. Nose was stinging it was so cold, but we made it through a run, not as many miles as I wanted but 13 was good enough. 1:40:10/8:09 |

| Got a huge snow storm last night and this morning but that is not why I didn't go out. I didn't go out because I feel worn down and tired so I slept in and did the bike for 30 mins and the elliptical for 30 mins. Felt good doing that and then lifted upper and abs/back. | Comments(7) |

went to the OFC to run on the TM, the roads are slick. Did a 3 mile tempo 7:01, 6:53, 6:52. Felt good should have went one more. 1:00:57/7:37 My year in review in running My low point is still having sciatic pain. But I can manage it and run with it. Had other low points this year not related to running but also had more great things happen so I guess they off set each other right. My high points are I got to run this year and had a PR in the marathon on limited training. I have learned I run the best on lower mileage (60 mile a week compared to 80). Got to run with great people, and run lots of trails with my dog (I am missing that with the snow).
