Nice sunny day for a run outside.  Not sure what my pace was as my Garmin died on me, but I was at 9:40 at mile 3.  But I did have my son drive out 3M so I would be sure to know where to turn around to get 6 (goal for today) in for today.  Sunnyside path clear until I reached Ammon/Hitt.  A mess after that from the snow fall last night, oh well... Temp 35. My feet were soaked by the time I made it home.. I reached my mileage goal this week. Week one of 18 week training plan under my belt. So far, so good....  I'm a little discouraged on my weight gain since I started faithfully running 3 weeks ago (3lbs), but Jeff Fogg is telling me not to worry.... (dang holidays)  I will admit that my clothes (especially my jeans) are fitting better...  I never EVER weigh myself, but figured I'd start my training knowing my lbs.  Now I only weigh once a week, but I think I won't for another couple of weeks...  I've been eating right too, so it's just frustrating...  I'd like to be around 120-125 so 132 is not that far off I guess (129 was closer).  Can't believe I just threw my weight out there..  WHO CARES.. LOL

NOTE: This is really for Sat, Jan 22nd.  0M on Friday.
