I ran twice today.  I first did a morning run alone in a snow storm.  This was the warmest day of the week too!  I ran to Sun River, did the loop through the community and ran home for 9 miles.  I forgot how hilly the roads are in sun river.  1 Mile Splits: 9:18, 8:57, 8:32, 8:25, 8:23, 8:16, 8:23, 8:25, and 8:45.  I tried to run slower... :)

I then ran with my 16 yr old daughter this evening.  Scott Hughes stopped and talked to us on our first mile.  We have been running into each other all week.  It was sprinkling at this time.  She had to do her 6 miles for her training.  So we ran an easy pace with a 1 minute walk break every mile.  We ran up to the Dixie Center and back on the Virgin River trail.  The last mile I challenged her to finish this run in under an hour.  She did it!  Our splits were 10:06, 10:27, 10:20, 10:02, 9:55, and 8:24.  I ran in my sauna poncho again... I was toasty warm during the whole run... :)
