7 SLOW, IN THE SNOW

Left @ 6:15, went alone with my music. It was definitely a yaxtrax morning. Certain back roads were icy so I aimed for the snow. Best place to run was on the snow packed tire tracks. It was beautiful with the snow because it was lighter out. The sunrise was great with the clear blue sky. The sun is rising sooner. Yay! I see a light at the end of the tunnel. I didn't finish my run in time to drive the carpool so my husband drove and I finished shoveling the driveway when I got home.

Registered for the Dam 2 Dam run in St. George (Pres. day weekend) I guess we run @ Sand Hollow State Park in Hurricane, UT. I'm doing the 10 miler, Jeff's doing the 5. Should be nice to run in warmer weather.

5 @ 5am. 23 degrees and overcast. First 2.5 miles WU (WAKE UP) and second 2.5 I couldn't feel my legs or butt (so cold) but tried to run faster. First half was uphill, second half down. Splits are as follows:

9:15, 9:33, 9:03, 8:12, 8:32

Singing with the band @ my daughter's 6th grade Valentine/50's dance during lunch so I had to get this run done early.

Hardest 14 miler I've ever done! Not that I've done so many but, it was freak'in hard. I went with Betsy and Jill so I didn't have slow Deb to fall back on. I'm putting my splits just for fun cause there's one I'm really proud of.

9:12, 9:18, 11:09 (trail) 9:50, 9:08, 7:58 !!!!!! (never seen this on my garmin for a 1.00), 10:58 (she took me straight  up the steepest trail ever!) 11:56 (wait, maybe that was it) 9:57, 10:00, 9:50, 9:33, 9:46, 10:06 (the trails kicked my butt so hard I seriously barely made it home.  legs, butt and feet were killing).

So...we went up Newcastle and up trail to La Caille. Betsy is a pro at those trails and I'm just trying to not break my ankle. Every step on the trail is a workout for me. At least it was in the condition they were in this morning. At La Caille we went up Wasatch and turned left up Cottonwood Canyon (south). That whole mile was TOUGH. We turned around (up @ the fork where the buses are and north cottonwood) and came back down and Jill was booking it this time. Ran down 94th and took our first left after going past Wasatch. Went down this hill and my garmin beaped and I saw the 7:58 and couldn't believe it! So happy! We went toward Dimple dell and I thought we'd run where we had before on a not so tough trail. Well, Betsy went down dimple dell to another trail head that took us straight up the side of the mountain. Of course she raced up like a mountain goat. Jill left us here and went home. Betsy and I continued on for I think about 4 miles on the trail and it did my body in. Straight down ( I was so worried I would fall or break something and she just raced through there. Very experienced trail runner) and straight up and I walked at one point (11:56). The trail leveled off but it's just so hard on my body. I feel like it's working muscles I never use with every step. Holy cow. Getting back on the road just felt easy after that but my body was so tired from it...it was seriously the hardest thing I've done in a long time.

Anyway, I sound like a wimp. I know it will just make me stronger and I did enjoy the challenge some of the time  :). Betsy did most of the talking and for the last 4 miles I noticed my face was FREEZING. When I tried to talk my mouth was numb like I had been to the dentist. I felt like such a retard when I tried to talk that it was making me laugh. My water was frozen and slushy by the end. I'm so excited to run a race in St. George next week! I hoping it will be so much warmer and no snowy trails! So grateful for a nice hot shower after these long runs in the cold!

Had to get ready to help @ the school with Valentine parties for 2 hours. Now I need a serious nap.

Did long run today cause I'll be in Midway tonight for GNOO (girls night out overnighter).
