AM: I did four miles with Andy, walking some, running some. He's doing great.

PM: Well, I wanted to run at least 10 this afternoon, but I'm really sore from yesterdays weights. Especially my left hamstring. Must have done something wrong on the dead lifts or leg presses. 

Three easy laps around Liberty Park - 4.25 miles.

Warm and sunny again. We had the winter Olympics here once didn't we? No snow in sight.

Nice run this afternoon.

Started out with an easy 1.25  miles on the treadmill then did about 10 minutes of stretching. Then I did 9 miles in 60 minutes keeping the pace around 6:30 most of the way.

Not quite a "workout", but getting there. Felt good. Hot tub after. I did this at the Sandy gym, not Sugar House, so all the jets worked in the hot tub.

Hard workout tonight. Little running, lots of lifting. I'm weak and rubbery everywhere.

Ann made some awesome chili for dinner before she went off for 12 hours of tending to the sick and wounded.

Five easy miles. Sore plus a swim meet day and I just didn't have the enthusiasm for more.

I think I'll feel good for a longish run tomorrow.

Nice night. Abby went to a "Secret Santa" party and the rest of us drove over the Christmas Street to look at the lights. Then we had pizza and watched Rufolph. Weather changed for the Christmastime better in my opinon. Colder and on the verge of snow even. We're heading to Florida for 10 days next Sunday and I'd like it to be a little warmer than Utah.
