| Decided today was a good day to rest. My left glute was giving me some trouble after yesterday's run, but it feels ok now. |

What a beautiful morning for a run. I was pretty slow starting, but by the end of the run I was feeling good. My left hip seems to be feeling ok, but still a little tender after the run. I saw a pelican today on the run, really cool!!! Running is truly an amazing way to see a lot of amazing things.
5 miles in the afternoon - I felt pretty good on these, a pretty easy run. |

| I wanted to turn my legs over a bit today so I headed to the track to run some faster paced 400's. I have not been on the track for a couple years so I thought I would just do a few to see how I felt. After the set, I still think I prefer a road setting and a time setting to the track. Anyway, 5x400 (79,78,77,77,78) They felt ok, but not great, I really need to start working on getting some leg turnover! |

Ran an easy 7 this morning - had a problem with my blood sugar about 2 miles into the run. I have had this before and usually I have to sit for a few minutes and let it stabilize - today was not different. I was still a little shakey when I finished, but I ran well for the last 3.5 miles.
PM 8.5 miles up city creek canyon for the first 6.5 and then 2 more slow with a client. I felt very good climbing up the canyon this afternoon and even better coming down. My legs, although a little tired, felt very fluid. Came down close to 6:15 pace with heart rate sitting in the low 130's. Overall a pretty good day of running. |

SugarHouse Park
I was a little short of time today, but I still wanted to get a set of miles in. I knew I would not have time for 4, but 3 was in the cards. After a short warm-up and some strides, I was set. The first mile started and I felt pretty good, relaxed and comfortable, I hit the hill on the far side of the park and it felt pretty easy. I wanted to stay relaxed and just run through the mile and let the time take care of itself. (Mile 1: 5:31) The second mile has the net gain of elevation with the big hill near Sizzler. I was feeling pretty frisky and took off, unfortunately my garmin clicked off the mile way toooooooo early. I would like to think I covered the mile in 4:00, but even I am not that naive. I kind of pieced together my time to be about 5:35. The recovery time was 2.5 minutes. I was hoping to run under 5:30 for number 3, but I did not want to feel like I was suffering to do it. I approached the hill on the back side and again just cruised up to the top, I felt very fluid and relaxed and pushed through to a 5:29. I am a little disappointed that I did not plan my schedule better to allow for another rep or two. Today was the most relaxed I felt since I started doing this set. |

| I ran a very sloooooooooow 6 this morning on the Jordan River parkway. It was a pretty run and I got to see the pelican again - so cool. 6 more this evening on the Jeremy Ranch road - again another picture perfect run. |

Decided that racing the 30k today would not have been in my best interest. I do not feel I have enough speed to run effectively that far, and my goals this year are to increase my leg speed. I warmed up for about 3 miles and did some strides, and took a look around to see who was there. I had high hopes that everyone was running the 30k and I could finally cruise to a win, but Chad wrecked my plans!!!!!! I thought if I could stay close through the first mile I might have a chance, I was wrong. Although I was close to Chad through the first mile, he punished me in the downhill and opened up a huge gap. Overall I felt pretty good, I maybe could have pushed a little harder in the opening mile, and possible finished a little stronger, but we are talking about making up only a fraction of time. My Garmin called the course at 2.93, and Chad's 2:95, I am wish it would have been a whole 5k, I know I could have been under 17, but that will wait for another day. Average pace was 5:30. I ran an additional 8.5 after the race up city creek.
