AM: 8.05 miles easy with Denver from my house, avg pace 7:33/mile. 13 degrees actually didn't feel too bad this morning.

PM: 6 miles on the Ogden River Parkway, which is not clear yet for those wondering, avg pace 7:23/mile. I was dragging big time and felt quite lethargic.

STEADY STATE LONG RUN

I ran from my house to my sister's house in North Ogden via the toll road, terrace, downtown Ogden, Depot, and through Harrisville, avg pace 5:54/mile.

I never know how to categorize just under 6:00 minute pace. It's not easy, but it's also not Marathon pace, so I split the difference.
