6 miles on the treadmill. I tried to take Je10's advice and imagine that I was trail running, but that only worked for about 20 seconds. I did however manage to clear a few episodes of "The Daily Show" out of my DVR backlog.

5 degrees outside and snowing means there is only one workout for me on a Mondee night: Weights at the gym. Tonight it was extra special because I got to workout with all of the ‘New Year resolution folks’ that haven’t quite learned or don’t remember proper gym etiquette, like wiping off gobs of sweat on the machines and farting in the weight room.

I coach a U13 competitive girls soccer team. I took my girls to the gym for practice, but first we ran the track to warm up. They all took off at about a 6:00 pace and it wasn't long before they started to lap me. I told them to slow down, but they didn't listen and half of them had burned out after about 4 laps. haha. After about 1.5 miles they were all spent and only a few ran the rest with me. Then we had a great practice.

BST and Ave Twin with Jun, Sam and Dorsimus:

I met the fellas at the Capitol at 4am. It was bitter cold at the start and running up City Creek Canyon. It seemed to warm up once we got on the trail, but it was pretty frosty for most of the run. I wasn't feeling great this morning (3 hours of sleep) and I fell at least four times. I kept taking gels, but never seemed to get my steam. Sam took off at the BST cutoff and we tried to go all the way to Dry Fork so we could run to the zoo, but the trail was horrendous, so we backtracked and went up to first Ave Twin instead. The inversion was sick from up there and it is only going to get worse.

I had to deal with a leaky hose from my hydration vest for most of the run and it was a total pain. I need a new one fast. The run down was ok other than hitting the deck and doing a face plant in the snow. At the trailhead we hopped on the trail on the north side and ran up that for just over a mile before the conditions became crappy again, so we hit the road and ran until we knew we would hit 15 miles. It actually felt good to get on the road and out of the snow for the run down. We got back to the car and the temp was 4. Frosty. I think I just barely warmed up 3 hours later.
