Ran down through Confluence Park, then over past the gravel pit.  I felt ok, ankle still buggin', just the typical out of shape feeling.

Ran up to the Substation this afternoon, then did a two mile tempo back to the cow field.  I wanted to see where I'm at with my fitness and establish a baseline.  I was hoping to be able to average 6:30 pace for the two miles, and I was actually pretty close.

1-6:27

2-6:39

13:06 (6:33 average)

This is quite a bit slower than what I usually do on this 2 mile tempo, but this is still good because it gives me an idea where I'm at

Ran over to 600 North and 200 West, then back home.  This was an ok 5 mile run, didn't feel great, but managed.

Today I did Nephi's Twist trail.  I had a hard time especially going up the steep hill section, still glad I got out and got a few miles in.  Everything has been a struggle lately.

Went and played basketball this morning.

This afternoon, I went and ran up the Overlook Trail to the top.  The first mile over to the trail head was good, but the second mile of climbing was absolutely terrible.  I kept experiencing lots of pain in my back, once on top things were a little better.  The only problem up on top of the Overlook was dealing with a very strong, cold headwind for about two miles.  The last two miles were ok.

I did a run tonight from the Overlook Road over to toward the Gun Club and then out on some jeep trails.  I didn't have a lot of time, so I only did 4 miles.

Ran over to Walmart, this was not a good run at all.  I was really struggling the whole way, plus I had to deal with a cold headwind most of the way, no fun.

Drove out to Utah Hill with Mike, Bill, and Scott.  I didn't feel very good from the start, didn't help that everyone took off like rockets.  I hit the first 3 miles with a 6:30 average, I'm just not in that kind of shape yet.  Anyway, I struggled bad on this run, ankle problems, a blister on my right foot, too hot..then too cold.  Bill was nice and came back to help me make it through.  Anyway 2011 was a year to forget running wise, I'm going to work harder this next year and hopefully it will be better.
