| Ok, Sasha finally convinced me to start posting. I have been reluctant to do so as I am still overweight and slow right now. I will attempt to post as much as I can when I get the opportunity. Ran with Sasha again. He is slowly but surely helping me get back into shape. Did 3.4 mile warm-up and then ran 1 mile up Canyon with Sasha in 5:55. This was very painful but I was happy to hang with Sasha for a mile. I then backed off and decieded I would turn at 2.2 miles and pick up the pace again going back down so I cold give Sasha someone to chase. With about a mile to go I cold see Sasha and picked it up to make him work to catch me. I did the last two miles in 6:25/5:40. Felt ok overall. Did another 1.5 miles with my son James (11) at his cross country race. 10.5 miles total is my longest day in a long time. If I can just lose the extra 15+ pounds I am carrying right now running would be a little easier. Maybe in a year or so I will be ready to race again. | Comments(2) |

| I decieded to run to work this morning, work out with the cadets, and then run home so I could get some mileage in. I ran four miles at 5:00am then did 150 push-ups and sit-ups followed by a 1.5 mile run with cadets. Afterwards I ran the 2.5 miles home, forgot how the whole way home is uphill! Averaged 7:15 pace, felt ok. | Comments(2) |

| Hilly but relaxed run, 7:20 average. Immediately following run I decieded to join some members of the ward for a bike ride. I thought it wold be an easy ride but when the majority showed up on street racing bikes with lock in shoes I knew I was in trouble on my 15 year old HEAVY mountain bike. I should have just wnet home at that point but I was not so wise. I ended up riding 28 miles up the canyon trying to keep up with the street bikes. My legs and rear are now officially trashed. | Add Comment |
