4.5 at lunch time from the Y. Nice and warm out, 65 with a decent breeze. Beautiful. Legs felt a bit rough but I just plugged along.

4 this morning from home. Beautiful morning. Internet said 55 but I think it was a bit colder in my neck of the woods as my gloveless hands were freezing. Ran mostly naked: no compression socks or calf sleeves, no iPhone, no headphones, no watch, no sunglasses. Just the essentials: shoes, socks, shorts, short sleeve tech shirt and headband. I just ran.

AP: pretty quick. Felt much recovered from yesterday.

6 TM miles at the Y at Noon. Too windy outside, so I grapped the iPad, turned on SVU, and I just ran. Warmed up 1/2 mile at 6.0 then went to 7.6 for the next 4 1/2, all with 1% incline. Last mile I turned it up to 8.6, and last 1/4 mile was 10.1. It all felt really easy and controlled. Amazing how some consistent outdoor running can quickly improve running efficiency.

AP: no idea

8.5 miles on the JRP with Kam! Traveled to Salt Lake with my family yesterday and met Kam at 12:30 today to go for a little run. On the out we took a bit of a goofy turn so the return we guessed and ended up 1/2 mile extra. No worries. Had a good run, lots of great conversation. I'm still amazed how fast runs with others go. 

AP: 8:15

I ran this morning with my brother-in-law and niece as they invited me to join up with Keshia and the Lifetime Fitness run club. Today we did a trail run, starting from the Capital and heading up the valley towards the BST. It was a good run and I had to walk quite a bit on the last mile up. We then walked to the very top to a peak that overlooked Ensign Peak and had a great view of a smogless SLC. What a beautiful city. 

My niece tweaked her knee the night before at the batting cages so I booked it on the way back so my ride wouldn't leave without me. 

Trail runs stink for pace, but AP: 10:14
