Easy run outside.  Ran out to Liberty Park at and did a few laps.  Legs felt OK but cardio felt tired.  I'll take Friday off and run my long on Saturday.

I was not looking forward to todays run.  I was tired and a little burned out from work.  I just wanted to get home and unwind.  I forced myself to the gym and onto the TM.  The first 3 to 4 miles were rough but last few miles I felt relaxed and the miles came easy.  Glad I didn't wimp out today.

I got home all excited about buying tickets for Mike Birbiglia’s My Girlfriend’s Boyfriend at Kingsbury Hall for this Friday night and its all sold out.  Thats what I get for procrastinating! If anyone wants to unload some tickets let me know.

Got the run in early in the morning, before the snow started to come down.  Feeling a little tired, which is probably due to the bike ride yesterday.  I haven't used my "cycling" muscles in a while and I could tell.

6 around 3:30 pm.  Managed to miss the snow on both runs.  Only went in to the office for 4 hours today.  That is about the right work to work out ratio for me 2:1.  Unfortunately its a ratio I rarely meet.   Its usually 4:1 or 8:1, which really sucks.

Cycling 1:33.  Road in SLC through U of U campus, up to Emmigration Canyon, and down into Holiday.  A little windy but otherwise perfect weather.
