AM-Easy 10 mile shake out run and unfortunately this is no time to cut mileage too much.  Run time was a 7:03/average with 6x100 m hill strides both up and down.  Usual 13th and 9400s route.  A bit chilly today it seemed. 

PM-Easy 6 miles on 7th.  6:46 avg pace.

AM-6 miles with a 3 mile tempo and heart rate time trial.  Starting out at 5:44/mi then 5:21 and finally a 5/min mi at 1% incline.  SLCC TM.  Some residual fatigue from the mileage but it is to be expected I suppose.

PM-No run. A Co-worker of mine passed away today and has left me not feeling up to much of anything right now.  And that is all I have say.  Out.

AM-Easy 7 mile jog on the treadmill. Tired and a bit under the weather today.. 

PM-Easy 5 mile jog with my boy on the bike after the rain cleared up.  It reminded me of when I did the same with my Dad, only it would be up and down City Creek canyon in July while carrying water in a pack for 16-20 miles.  LOL!

Wow.. I got taken to school today.  It's ok though I had some serious mileage fatigue under my legs that did not help and perhaps just don't have the kind of fitness I need to go under 15:30.  Maybe it will come eventually and maybe it won't.  Doesn't matter right now because it was good to get out and race one again as it has been since 2009 I think since I last run one of these.  Great fun!I was glad to meet and get to finally talk to John Rosswog for the first time. Hung out and talked with so many others also.   Talked over my training with Demetrio and realized there have been some mistakes along with some unrealistic expectations.  There will be some changes made for sure now. It's interesting how getting an unbiased outside opinion can really help.  But overall it was fun and I have to say I got my lunch taken from me today! 

You know I may be an American first but lately I have really come to admire the strength of not only Japanese elite runners but also the people of Japan during the recent disaster crisis.  So I have adopted the rising sun and Never Give Up! slogan of the Japanese people as my own motivational tool for a little while.:)      

Never Give Up!
