Phil B Mileage Log

 I haven't ran for a long time - I feel like I've been too busy so this was my first run in a long time, months....

I ran down a new paved trail that Lehi just constructed.  I'm excited that they put it in... it parallels the railroad tracks and is not too far from my house.  It almost runs all the way to Cabella's!

Parked at Cabella's and ran up in the neighborhoods behind it.  Also ran along the canal road above Cabella's and had to jump a 6ft fence to get back to my car at Cabella's...

5 mile run after shoveling snow for 30min... ran down a canal road and then across a field I have always wanted to run through for some reason (but probably won't run through again.. too many high weeds)  The whole run was on about 2 inches of soft powder snow. 

Had to return a redbox video so I ran it into Smiths at 7:30pm.  A little icy roads but not too cold outside.  I was feeling sick because the nice neighbors had just brough over cookies and sweetrolls and I had to have some before my run :) so the first 2.5 miles I was hurting.  Almost threw-up (but kept running :) )

Ran trail by Lehi train tracks towards town.  Trail goes under the freeway towards Lehi Walmart and there is a nice graffiti exhibit on display under the freeway.  A few shady fellows glaring at me too.  I took comfort in the fact that I could probably run fast than them :)

6am run.  I went south west on the new Lehi trail by the train tracks.  This time I went to the end of it and looped back around to my house.   I probably shouldn't have run out in the smog... I was feeling it in my lungs until the afternoon... yuck! I felt good on the run though, I was far from race pace but I haven't run this far in a long time. 

I went on a cross-country ski with my dad and brother at Jolly's Ranch up Hobblecreek Canyon in Springville.  First ski of the season, with many more to come I hope...
