New Year's run with Scott and Matt on the parkway in Riverton. It was 4 degrees when we started with a windchill of -4. A bit chillier than California but too bad. Great to catch up with them.

Riverton Parkway run again with an even bigger group: Scott, Matt, Jon, Mike, Justin, Reed and Dan. We decided not to race because of the snow.

Ran with Roo from the gate at Millcreek, up to the top and back down. Roo ran laps around me while chasing every dog and skier. He will log 14 miles, most of which were at top speed. Managed 3 miles at ~5:35 on the way down on the packed snow.

very ginergly ran around Sugar House on the ice. I ran down the middle of the road, in the gutters and on the sidewalks and only found a few stretches of road that werne't ice. I was happy and lucky to finish the run without hitting the ground.

Big group run around the U from HHS with Josh, Dan, Daniel, Nate K., Nate B., Andrew, Anthony and Scott T. Hamstring is...ok maybe. Finished with a couple miles of rowing, stretching, lifting and rolling at the gym.

A "Winter" series it was. The roads were covered with a couple inches of snow but not too much ice which made it runnable. I wore my trail shoes and  ran about a minute slower than I wanted to. Even if the conditions were perfect I still probably wouldn't have broken 16. It was incredible that Garek ran a 15:21 and Riley a 15:29 despite the road conditionas, running into a guy on the way back and having to come to complete stop at the turnaround. I suspect Garek would have run ~14:45 on a good day which would have broken the CR.

Warmed up 3.5 solo then cooled down 4.5 with a group of guys. Finished out of the "money/gift card" behind Garek, Riley, and Nathan Peters. Not bad company. 

I estimate around 250 people ran the race which is a great  turnout considering the conditions. The SLCTC always does a great job and the organizers are the best.

Easy run from HHS through the U and back along Foothill. Hamstring was tweaked again at the race yesterday and started to get really tight have way through this run. I will best served to not run for a few days.

Afterwards I went to the gym for 3.25 on the stairmaster, lifting and stretching. Unfortunately the hot tub is under repair and the roof is leaking again. The Sugar House 24 Hour Fitness really is a sight for sore eyes.
