My family and I went to Springville and participated in the Polar Bear Plunge.  All the major local news networks were there - CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX.  I got a little air time on Ch 2.  It wasn't really exercise, but I did swim about 10 yards - better than a goose egg for the day.

I went to the pool, but it was mostly closed due to a swim meet.  The swimming lanes were in a small area where all the kids were playing.  I tried to get a few laps in by going around people but it was very difficult.

I got a pretty good run it on Saturday with the Spanish Fork group.  It was a little cold especially when a little breeze would kick up - around 18 degrees.

I went out at lunch time for a bike ride, but it was really cold.  My thermometer only said about 34 degrees, I was hoping for closer to 40.  The wind was blowing out of the canyon and then add my bike speed riding into the wind and I was freezing.  I turned around after about a mile and a half and went back.

It was a bit cold running at lunch time, but not as bad as riding the bike yesterday.

I ran at lunchtime up Provo Canyon.  I did about 2 miles of tempo work as I struggled to keep up with Ron, who caught up to me.

In the evening I rode my bike on the trainer for 30 minutes.

I ran up Provo Canyon.  The run started off ok, the temperature was around 40, but then it started to rain.  I was soon soaked.  I guess it was good training if I ever find myself in a rainy marathon.

I went up Provo Canyon at lunch time.  There was a little breeze blowing up the canyon making it a wee bit chilly coming back down.
