7 miles to watch an NFL game, with 30 second skips between plays.  "Yes, I love technology..."

7 is the new treadmill 10k.  Need to turn it into 8, as well as flesh out a marathon training plan.  The base is reasonable, now it's time to start building and working a wee bit harder.

Sometimes I don't do a very good job of color coordinating my running shoes and shorts and shirt.

8 more on the mill, alternating between 8 mph for .75 and 7 mph for .5.  Average pace ended up just under 8 mm.  

Treadmill running leads to a lot of extra tv watching.

10 more on the mill.  That's a few too many to stay interested in anything.

Driving down from Bntfl. Blvd this morning I saw a band of smog; it didn't come up that high.  In the afternoon, I returned to elevation to run out and back in clean air and sunshine.  The car indicated a temp of 46 degrees, but there was little if any melting, so...

I was mostly comfortable in long sleeves and shorts, with gloves and no hat.  I made 6.25 miles out, before the road became BST into City Creek Canyon.  I turned around, and limped home, thirsty and out of fuel.  Overall pace 8:15.
