Providence Star - 

 Today, I wore my trail shoes to try and get some traction on the 1-2 inches of white stuff on the roads.  It kind of helped.  Pace was still slow though.

Big Workout

Same run as 1/22/2011.  House to Providence Canyon along Deer Fence to just a bit up Dry Canyon.  I returned home the same way.  My sister in law is getting married tomorrow and we have been summoned to attend all the wedding and rehearsal events, so no work for those 2 days.  I took advantage and spent a bit more time than usual on the morning run.  Too bad it was only 10 degrees outside.  The goal today was to try and get under 8 min pace, but the sloppy conditions on the trail just about did me in.  It was super slick and tough to run on.  I should have worn the microspikes.  I was able to sneak under 8 min pace during the last mile, but it took some real work on the final 5 miles to get it done.  Good Workout though.  I followed it up with lunch at Ahh Sushi in downtown SLC.  Yummy.

Easy miles on the Jordan River Parkway then on the road back to the in-laws.  Knee is sore today.  I guess it isn't quite healed up yet.

Long Run -

Last chance to cram in some fitness before next weekends sufferfest at Moab.  Busy day, so things started early.  I headed to first dam via sumac and up the shoreline trail over to Green Canyon.  Once there, I was surprised to see the trail in such good shape.  Snowshoes had packed it down nicely and it was pretty grippy.  I only went up to the start of the second single-track section then had to turn around.  On the way down, I stuck to the perfectly groomed road.  I almost felt bad making footprints in the perfect snow.  The way home was perfectly boring.  I tried to pick up the pace to near 7 min pace but couldn't quite get there.  I was struggling.  It took until the final mile to finally hit a 6:48.
