Presidents day run tonight. As I ran up into the hills I kept thinking about the account of George Washington's vision of the three great perils that were given to him by a heavenly messenger. This  vision foretold the struggle and destiny of the United States.  I had read this earlier today and had also stumbled upon Helaman chapter 8.  And it was like wow! The parallels were frightening and uncanny to say the least..   I may write about this sometime but for now I need to get going.  Dark Horse out.  

10 miles easy at 6-6:30/mile.  7th and Draper loop.

AM-4 miles of easy running on the treadmill at 60-65% mhr 7:30-8/min/mile pace.

PM-Out to the Jordan River temple and past it for a change of pace tonight. Stopped for a while to see the interesting stained glass and design. Beautiful design all around. Turned around at Merit medical and headed for home.  10 miles at 6:40/mile average.

On another another note, as I turned in for the final sprint I suddenly became airborne and landed flat on my back knocking my head while getting a nice pain in the rear! ICE! And out of nowhere to boot. I think when we get to Arizona I may just literally run away and stay there!

Dark Horse out..... Ouch.

AM-Easy 5 miles untimed, just kept it easy and the heart rate between 60-70% mhr. 

PM-Fartlek run with up to 10 min stretches at  LT-Marathon pace effort. Estimate 6-7 miles worth .  It was interesting with the ice dictating the pace and effort.  5:30-6:00/mile pace for 6 miles with warmup and cooldown.  I picked a pretty hilly route that I have not run in a while which really did wonders for my hill running ability last year.  Sandy-Dimple Dell route.  Dark Horse out...

AM-6 miles easy this morning especially with the weather being so nasty. Untimed, just easy running at 65-70% mhr. Felt surprisingly good this morning considering last nights hill charge of the ice brigade! Yeah, I know I'm weird...

Dark Horse out.

PM-6 miles at 6 min/mile pace on the mill at 1.5% incline with 6 pickups to 5:20/mile for a minute each at  the end to practice form and smooth running.  Felt good to run wild a little tonight, so to speak.

OK, I'm a tad obsessive compulsive. I ran a few more miles after the race. With a busy race schedule starting already, you get creative about getting in your long run!

Anyway, All I can say is hmm... I did my best, even to the point where at the end of the race I thought I was going to hack up a lung. Last mile in 5:15. I'll take that anyday. Dark Horse out...
