So I didn't really run today, I just did some upper body lifting and spent 10 minutes on the eliptical before Kids corner closed. I don't know if those miles count as running miles, but I put 'em anyways:)

I'm so glad I decided to run out doors today. I had to bundle hope up and wear long sleeves to start out at 4 pm! It was cool and nice. I ran to try and find a back route to the gym in case I ever want to run there. I found a couple of ways that I could go. Plus I discovered Square Lake, I ran along it for awhile before heading back home. I planned on doing 8, but 7 with the stroller was plenty for me.

| I did the tempo run that was on my schedule for today. This is how it went: I warmed up a mile, then started my pace at 6:35. 1/2 way into it I decided I would just do 3 miles instead of 5 if I did a sub-20 5K. As I neared 3 miles I thought I was going to make it, easy. Well, that dang 0.1 mile was a lot farther than I thought. I was at 19:35 at 3 miles so I kept upping the pace to try and get 19:59 or less. 3.1 hit right at 20:00 exactly. Dang! I had to stop then to change a diaper, then back up to do 2 more miles. I did them at a 6:30 pace, then cooled down a mile. I felt pretty good running at that pace. I should've just gone a bit faster to start out with on my 5K. Oh well, next time.

| I decided to do a semi-long run instead of 18 since I'll be in St. George in a few days to get my fill of long runs (hopefully). So I ran this trail I've been wanting to try out. At 7:30pm on the 4th of July I didn't think many people would be on the trail, but there were a few, mostly bikers. The start of the trail was in a rougher part of town. Craig dropped me off and we planned to meet at a park 4 miles up. I took my pepper spray just in case and was glad I did! I ran into a group of hoodlums and the spray gave me the security I needed to keep running and not just turn around and sprint back the other way! The farther north I got, the better the trail and the less scary it became. So, I made it to Craig with a little adrenaline running through me. We then decided to meet at the next park another 5 miles up the trail. Well, 5 went by and I never saw a park, so I went another mile, still no park. This was a problem because Craig didn't have his cell phone. I didn't know where I was or what I was going to do. I thought I'd just hang out on the trail about where we were going to meet and see if he showed up. After about 10 min. of planning my next move to find my way home, he called me! He borrowed some Michigander's phone and located me. Phew! Maybe next time I'll just run close to home. The trail was nice though...maybe I'll go back...later. When I get a taser.

| Went to the gym today...so much easier with the girls. I wanted to mix it up a little so I did the stair master for 30 minutes. That was hard. I'm not sure how they calculate miles, but it said on there I did 3.9...I''ll take it! Then I did some abs and push ups followed by 3.3 (7:30, 7:30, 6:18, cool) more on the treadmill, then another 2 sets of abs and push ups. |

| So, Braden was supposed to come home from his mission last night, but flights were delayed and he didn't get home today until 430pm! So we did a run this morning to pass the time. Lava Ridge trail. |

| We hiked sand hill at lake Powell 4 times, so I'm giving myself 4 miles. Probably not very accurate, but someone said it, so I'm doin it! |

| Did our long run starting at Brookside, up to Central, then back down SR18 and Snow Canyon. Beautiful, fast, fun run with Amber and Kari! I had a bit of a belly ache at the end so it was hard to go too fast down the super steep hills without it getting too painful. Thanks Amber for getting up extra early (um yeah, 2:40) to come pick me up at the bottom! You are so nice!! I'm so glad I got to run with you! Avg. pace: 7:50 |

| My mom was up with Hope late into the night so she decided not to run. I felt awful guilty, but I went running with Liisa and Kay and had a great time! Stimulating conversation makes the run go by in no time! Sun Brook loop. |

| We got up early (5am) to do Snow Canyon. Dallin, Braden, Lauren and my parents came. Also, Kay, Liisa, Cass, Katie, Maddie, Jackie...and probably others. It was fun! Dallin and I ran together up, we averaged 9:23's. Poor Dal upchucked at the top. Then we cruised back down. Our average for the whole run was 7:50. I will miss this run! I love the sunrise on the red and white cliffs. |

| I can't really say these miles were easy, but they were pretty slow. We went at night and it was hot! Plus, I ate a lot today. Oh, and I pushed Hope in a non-running stroller for about 3 miles. But it felt much better at the end and I was happy to get some miles in! |

| I love this race! I didn't do a lot of mental preparation but decided the morning of the race that I'd shoot for a PR...specifically 1:30. I did a 1:32 at Provo River, then again at Virgin to Hurricaine, so I definitely wanted to beat that time. I started out much quicker than I usually do. I typically take it fairly easy the first few miles of a long race to warm up. But Amber, Kari, and I ran just over a mile beforehand which I think really helped. I wanted to catch up to Amber and run with her if I could, so I caught her at mile 2, just before the steep downhill, but I just couldn't hang. I could see her up ahead of me most of the race though...so I knew I must be improving! Thanks Amber, you helped me keep a good pace. I kept all my miles below 6:50 which shocked the heck out of me. Halfway through I thought, "I don't think I can maintain this pace." But I did, and was very happy with my finishing time. It was a beautiful day in a beautiful place. It was fun to have the whole fam there too! All of my siblings and my parents ran the race. Everyone did awesome. The girls in the family all medaled! Sweet! |

| I went to a spin class at the gym. Felt good to push it. Warmed up half mile on the treadmill.
Had a few big wammies this week making it difficult to run.

| I know it was supposed to be a long run this weekend, but when I found out that this race was right by my house I couldn't pass it up! I ran from my house to the high school where the race started then did another mile on the track. It was a good 4 mile warm-up. The website said not to plan on a PR since it was such a hilly race. But the winning time last year was 48 minutes and I thought I could at least get that...I hoped. Well, the race started and so did the rain, and so did the hills. It was just a light rain to begin with, then about half way through, it really started coming down. It was beautiful and refreshing. The hills were steep, but mostly short. They didn't bother me too much, I made up for them on the downhills. I felt good, I probably could've pushed a little harder...oh well. I finished 4th over all (bummer...the top 3 got cash!) and 1st in my age. The coolest part was meeting some super fast folks at the awards ceremony. Their little girl was playing with Hope and we got talking. The husband ran in the Atlanta olympics and can do a 5K in 13 something! He also runs his mile sub 4! His wife is a international cross-country champion (top 10) and does a 5K in 15 something! WOW! I was so impressed. I hope I find more races around here. It was fun!

| Went to the gym with Craig in the evening. I got burned out of running on the treadmill after only a couple of miles so I mixed it up and walked on it at a 15% grade for awhile then rode the bike next to Craig for another 3 miles. |
