Ran up American Fork canyon with Brody, Scott and Melanie, trying to escape some of the bad air.  On the way back down I ran a 5:22, 6:20, 5:49, 5:17 the last four miles.  Felt good to let the legs go for a few miles.

Ran 10 in the AM with Scott, North on the JRT.  Air was bad.  

At lunch went to Deer Creek Dam and ran up the trail for a 6 mile out and back towards midway.  First time to see the sun in awhile.

Ran 10 going south on the JRT in the AM.  First four miles were brutal trying to wake the body up, was very sluggish and unmotivated, but slugged out 10 anyways.  Sky was starting to clear, could see some stars.

Ran 6.27 on the BST from the gun range towards PG.  Trail was in fantastic shape, a little snow on most of the trail.   Sun was out, and the arctic wind was a nice touch.

Roads were a little slippery in spots.  Another arctic wind run when heading north.

Ran from Home Depot in Lindon to Vivian Park.  Felt pretty bogged down like I was starting to bonk around 19, but after Stinger, energy came back for the last few.  Splits from mile 13

6:57, 6:56, 7:05, 6:59, 7:15, 7:02, 6:42, 7:05, 6:51, 6:43

Did a Lehi Loop with Scott, Jody, Bill, Reed, Matt.  Felt surprisingly good after the long run yesterday.  With about 2 or 3 to go Scott and Jody kicked it under 5:50 pace and I couldn't keep up anymore.  Fatigue finally set in.
