Hoping that I'm on the upswing.  Almost felt like a runner today.  Energy is still low but definitely felt a lot better.

Still a little slow but I am feeling better.  I have a ways to go but feel like I am on track again.

Felt pretty good except my ankle really started to tighten up the last couple of miles.

Other than the burning ankle I actually felt really good today.  There is a new paved trail in West Bountiful that starts on 400 North and connects to the LPT that I though I would check out.  It is about 1.5 miles and very flat so it will be a good place for speed work if I ever get around to doing it again.  My legs still felt a little sloppy but they are definitely getting back to where they need to be.

Just a short and quick run as I was short on time.  Feel like I am still moving in the right direction.  I don't feel as sharp as I would like but am definitely improving.

Went to the running club meeting place and nobody was there.  There are a lot of races this morning which is why there were so many no shows.  Ran along Davis Blvd to the end then cut down to Orchard and continued south to the highway then made my way back to the starting point.  Going back up 400 North is tough to do at the end of a run.  With 1/2 mile to go I was starting to feel pukey and my chest started to hurt.  Told myself that these are the feelings that I need to learn to ignore and push through.  Only got 1/4 mile before I involuntarily stopped and decided to walk the last 1/4 mile as a "cool down".  The run was pretty good despite the disappointing breakdown at the end.
