14 miles

Had planned on a 16 mile run for 2016, but then my family changed some plans to an earlier time so I had to cut it short. Got together with the old crew for some great miles in the cold to kick off the new year. Ran through Holladay along Wander and then back to Casto to drop off Tyler. Then headed south on Holladay Blvd. with James and Brayden and did a loop down 6200 S and back up Walker Lane. Fantastic time with great friends.

6 miles

Had the day off for the big holiday. Decided to run while the kids napped in the afternoon. It was nice and rainy and provided for a great time.

Also, I have been super lazy with my running to start the year. Hopefully I can turn that trend on its head and get after it a bit more.

Got out in the snow today. It was just a nice fluffy snow to begin but it turned ugly about mile 3. It was windy, with small snow pellets instead of flakes. It was like getting shot by a really really old red rider bb gun, where the spring is worn, out thousands of times. The sides of the roads were covered in a nice thick layer of slush. Luckily the viziglos are weatherproof and my little toes stayed nice and toasty. As miserable as it sounds, this was actually a lot of fun!

2.5 miles running 1 mile Elliptical

Went to the gym with my wife for a Yoga class. Decided to go early and run on a treadmill for a bit, but when we got there, every treadmill was in use. I hopped on an elliptical and did a mile until one of the treadmills opened up.

By then I only had about 20 min until yoga. Did 1 mile about 8 min pace and then did 2nd mile at 6:40 with a 2% incline to make it a bit more realistic. Then cooled down and hit up an hour of yoga.

Meandered through the neighborhood for 6 miles. Kept it in cruise control which is about 8:00 min pace now.
