| Location: Herriman,UT,United States Member Since: Feb 05, 2012 Gender: Male Goal Type: Other Running Accomplishments: Biggest running accomplishment has been to simply start running and love it!

Not really a Long Run day (but close...and it was enough)
12 miles on the Olympic Oval. What a crazy place today! Everyone escaping the snow and cold for their run. Throw in a few high school track/cross country teams, Westiminster track team, and Elite running team and all the rest of us and it was almost as busy as the New Years Revolution Run! Oh and they had regional qualifying races on the skating oval so half the running lanes were shut down at some points for the timers. Of course there were a couple of zamboni crossings to wait for and a pause for the national anthem. All in all it was fun though! Fun to be with Scott, Kelli, Rachel, Rob and the zillion others there!
Average pace with all those pauses included ended up at 8:20 mpm. Take some of those out and it would have been under 8 :)
Happy Day!!

Cross Train Day:
Went in at 5:30 today thinking I would get into the TRX class...wrong! It was full. Ladies at the desk said they were gone by 5:10...is it really worth getting there at 5AM for??? Kelli??? :)
Warmed up, Jump rope 600 alternating feet, 2 miles on the track, Ab work, then off to spin class for the next 60 minutes. After Spin 2 more miles on the track then core weights and more ab work. Good solid workout for this MLK Monday!
