Slept in this morning and decided to just run this afternoon.  I ran from my house over along the Snow Canyon Parkway out towards the old running store.  This is becoming one of my favorite routes.  I didn't get out until about 5:30pm but the temperature was awesome.  It was much warmer today than it was all last week.  Hopefully it stays the same for the rest of the week.  Just took it nice and easy.

I did my Kayenta Hilly Loop run this afternoon.  I ended up going through Kayenta and then out along Highway 91 out past the Shivwits Indian Reservation.  The road was a little sketchy once it got dark.  I enjoyed all of the cars putting their brights on to see if I was an animal or something.  I wasn't but they decided to keep the brights on.  Lovely people!  Overall it was a nice run.  Happy to have it in the books.

4 miles this morning around the wonderful streets of Ivins and Santa Clara.

13 miles this afternoon.

I decided to go and run Barrel Roll this afternoon.  The weather was awesome so I hurried home from work and threw on the shoes.  I ran into Kamm riding his bike.  He looked like the Utah version of Lance Armstrong.  He was all decked out!  I had the trail to myself.  It was a little soggy in some spots but it made for an enjoyable run.  You can't beat the 50 degree weather at this time of year.

Club run this evening.  I ran from the high school and did a few miles before we all met up at the DC.  We looped around Stone Cliff and then back down onto River Road.  It was fun seeing the guys again and chatting about everything.  Decent longer run.  Legs felt good.

I started at my house and then ran along Snow Canyon Parkway.  I had to push the pace a little bit because we had a work Christmas party.  I ended up doing the last 5 1/2 miles between 6:00-6:30 pace.  The legs felt good and it was nice to do a mini speed workout that wasn't originally planned.

Met up with Clyde this morning at the DC.  We started out by doing the Bloomington loop and then went out and did the same run by Stone Cliff that the club did on Thursday.  We started talking about possible races again for next year and the pace dropped quickly below 6:30/pace.  It was absolutely perfect weather this morning.  I was running in a long sleeve tech shirt and shorty shorts.  Awesome!  I will be in Logan all next week visiting Katey's family so I will miss the warm weather quite a bit.  Hopefully I can get some runs in with the Logan guys again.  It has been a while.
