So I finally got a chance to go running this year. I have been going stir crazy, but it has simply been too cold to take my young son out in the stroller when I have time to run.  Today's run was quite fun.  I went out too fast the first mile and it nearly broke my resolve, but I slowed down and hit my target time.

Great run at the Fieldhouse tonight.  I ran at a consistent 9:13/mile pace for the entire run.  I was getting pretty winded near the end.  The holidays were not kind to me.  Almost no running combined with fudge is not a good combination for my physique.

River Heights loop with my little guy today.  It was warm enough that I dared take him.  Run felt great even though it was a little chilly.  The sun when down while I was out and the temperature dropped more than I expected.

Nice easy run on the treadmill at the Fieldhouse.  The plan was to go outside, but the weather wasn't very nice today.

Nice quick run at the Fieldhouse today.  I hit the treadmill and had it set on a 2% incline for most of the run.

Great run around town today.  With the nice weather I took my son and we went for a run up to campus.  We took the hill climbing route I have.  Even added an extra one on the way back coming up from the Dugway toward the temple.  Nice slow pace at about 10:00/mile.

Nice run on the treadmill today.  I started to feel a little burned out near the end because I hadn't eaten anything today.

Did a bit of interval training today.  I traded off doing a quarter mile at a quick pace with .1 miles at rest pace.  Did the last mile at around 9:00/mile.
