Got an alright workout in during the kids soccer scrimmage... good fun the kids got a great hour long burn in...

Had a soccer game later and it was an even better workout... we got beat, but it was a good sweatfest!

Also have been working on doing random core exercises around the house and such... been doing pushups, planks, 100's, etc....

Needed to get outside today... so I turned down a Title lunch at 5 guys and ??, i forget the name, never eatin there... and headed over to 27th st and took on Malans... haven't done it for awhile... but it reminded me quickly that it kicks your behind... trail was in perfect condition this afternoon, i wore my shoe deals, that I think are actually made for ice fishing but work great for this.... didn't do great for time on the way up, 44:59... but didn't expect to with being congested the last couple days. As i said the trail was in perfect condition, especially for running down, soft but with a firm base and not slippery with my grippers... round trip was 1:01:03, so pretty good for the down time! I am sure my quads will feel it tomorrow!

Glad i did it, i am in a running rut, but not to worried i kinda want to take it easy for a month or so, usually i don't take alot of down time... not having a gym pass this winter will help with the down time... i want to see if i can get refreshed and have a good spring!

Had a solid run from Rainbows this afternoon went up to the upper trail and along it for awhile then looped around to the mid trail and back! Good fun, trail was a bit muddy and snowie at times... not minding this weather, which is odd for me, usually a full-on winter mode guy... i think it is a sign i am getting old/soft..

Good Late night soccer action... great workout tonight... we ended up tying but fun Game!

Another great night of Soccer... very good burn, sweatfest... and we won! I miss the Spin Class sweatfest I got all last winter, i think that is the main thing I miss from not having a gym membership and probably will be noticed the most in overall fitness... oh well for the time being I happy not going to a gym!

Went for a run up Wheelers this morning with Roxy dog... The trail was in nearly perfect condition hard packed with an inch of new snow... did the ice box loop with some a short addon on the ol' snowbasin road... which also was perfect for running... it is closed this time of year so there was about 2 inches of crunchy hard snow that was incredible to run on... needless to say I enjoyed the run and breathing the crisp mtn air! Roxy did great running with me too, only saw 2 people walking their dog down toward the bottom of Wheelers...

If I had any real getup I'd go do it again tonight, I'd probably just go park at Basin or at the bottom t Art Nord and run on the road... its that good!

A good workout on the soccer field... we lost

A solid run from Rainbows, starting out it was freezing with a stiff wind coming out of the canyon... but as soon as I got up to the upper bench it was nice... good cruiser, trail along upper bench was icey... as I went more south it softened and soon I was running in packed snnow which was perfect for running... Came back via the lower trail and the road! Needed it!

Got outside and it was one of those you want to figure out how to capture and then each time you go release... great, great run on the bench started above football stadium and took lower trail over to the mid trail and then climbed over to the Spring and worked my way way back via the upper trail to the Beus Ext.... there was a steady mist the entire run that felt great, had the music rolling and felt super good overall... don't know why sense I have been pretty lazy lately but maybe this rest thing actually does the body some good??
