January 7
14mi, 1:33:30 (6:41/mi): Fishouse + xtra. Felt like I was running progressively slower over the course of the run, but I attempted to compensate by adding some surges. Interesting, I suppose. Chilly and windy. Late October is beautiful.
Week: 60.5mi. Exactly as planned. And there's another 2-3mi hidden in there somewhere, but, umm, those don't go on the shoes.
January 6
5.5mi, 38:33 (7:00/mi): Car Retrieval. A standard loop. Also, a little chilly in shorts today having misplaced my running pants. Specifically, missed my legs. Did not run around Lake Harriet because of the inevitable confusion that would result.

Sometime last week: 3 miles fast with my brother. He doesn't know pace from his own ass.
Saturday: 5 hours snowshoeing in Yosemite. Only bit it once, had a great view from the hike, and tried running in showshoes at the end. It felt quasi-normal, but my companions informed me that I looked ridiculous. What do they know.
Sunday: 5 hours hiking through redwoods in Yosemite. Kept trying to spot the tree I stood in front of when I was 3. Unsuccessful, but I did get to kiss a tree.
Monday: 11 hours drive back to Portland. Cranky. Stormed out of the house for a run, 3 miles. Fumed the whole way... and after.
Tuesday: much needed sleep
Jan 7 - Agreed to run the Wasatch 100. Sent in my $$$. Accepted entries are posted early February. Then I can start running!
