AM: Met Scott, Reed, Matt and Toni for a Lehi loop. It was 25 degrees!!! It felt very comfortable. Scary that 25 should feel so warm.

After 5 miles Scott joined me for some tempo. 4 miles (5:37, 5:31, 5:37, 5:44). The 2nd mile had quite a lot of downhill, the last mile was all uphill. Even effort at just under LT. Felt great. 2 mile cool down.

I was grateful to have Scott with me for the first 3. It is so much easier when there is someone to share the joy! Thanks Scott. 

 

PM: 6 miles easy on the TM. Weights.

I'm glad I could make your workout easier. I was super tired after 3. It's cool to see where your fitness level is right now--and humbling this morning :-)

@scott There's always a first (and most likely the last) time for everything :)
