Ran with Timo around South West AF.  Roads were snow packed and icy.  We did a loop from 26.2.

Very cold this morning!  Timo and I ran by the junior high down the Mitchell wetlands  and back.  I added a mile at the end to give me seven. 

This will be my last run of the year.  Hopefully 2009 will be a better running year for me.  2008 wasn't bad, the races I ran I did well in considering everything, but 2009 will be better.  I want to race more and hope to stay healthier.

I slept in until 8:00am because I stayed up so late last night.  I missed Timo at 26.2 so I ran on my own.  I did the loop on the Lone Peak and Alpine hwys.  It was a lot warmer today and I overdressed.  Legs were tight but I got going eventually.   I averaged 7:19 per mile for the run with 6:33 being my fastest mile.  It was good to get my first run of 2009 under my belt.  

May running goals for the year are:

Break 2:30 in a marathon

Break 1:11 in a half marathon

Get over my small injuries and stay healthy

Keep running with my high school athletes

Get stronger by cross training on a consistent basis

Run more miles than I did in 2007

Try some new fun races as a 30 year old

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I met Timo again for another Holiday morning run.  Today we headed down the icy roads to Utah Lake to the boat harbor.  We came back through the fields a different way.  The run was very flat and I enjoyed it because I had never been that way before.  7:56 ave.
