4:30 pm and 30 degrees. No wind. Did a 2.75 mile warm-up in 20:48 (7:34s). Then did     10 x .2 mile hill repeats with .2 mile jogging recovery between so that each repeat went off on the 3 minute mark. Nearly every repeat was around 1:03-1:05 and generally I had about 15-20 seconds of total rest at the bottom again. Then 2.8 miles in 19:08 (6:50s) and finished with .45 mile cool down. Total running time was about 1:09:40 for 10 miles when I take out the 20 seconds total rest at the bottom of the hill (6:58s)

1:30pm, 32 degrees, a little moisture in the air, but no wind. 10.25 mile loop in 1:14:14 (7:15s). Good solid steady run today at a comfortable pace.

1pm, 30 degrees, light snow, and some wind. Did a 8.1 mile out and back to the corner of Trial Crest Drive and North Ballas through what I think is the Shaw Valley Nature Reserve. Its not really a nature reserve in the typical sense, but it is a nice 2 mile winding downhill through a lot of trees and a creek that runs the side of the road on the way out, and of course up on the way back. The total run time for 16.2 was 1:56:32 (7:12s). I tried to keep it easy and in the fat burning/aroebic zone. The first 8.2 was in 1:00:22 (7:22s) and the 8 on the way back was in 56:10 (7:01s -- finishing mile in 6:45 and focusing on keeping paced and not speeding up through the finish). Wrapped it up with a .5 mile cool down.
