Had a good run this morning. Ran four at a 7:03 pace. I do feel that the treatment i had the other day is really helping my breathing. Also, my wife told me to start taking this medication this morning to help get rid of mrsa infection. She works around a lot of infections like that and she thinks i have some signs of it. Anyway, thanks for reading and have a great day! :-)

Had a good run with Kory this morning. We had some great conversation and i really enjoyed running with him. Thanks Kory! I was feeling good and on the last mile i wanted to kick it up a little and see what i could do and i am happy with the results. Now i am going to the movie (by myself) and out to eat. God bless you all and have a great day and weekend!

Ran on the treadmill today. I think running outside is why i keep getting sick. Ran one mile warm-up and four miles at marathon pace and a mile cool down. My overall average was 6:38 with a 1.0 incline. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Legs were sore this morning, so i did not know how my run was going to go. But, i think it went well, I did my two mile warm up and 5 @ 4:00 at a 6:15 to 6:30 pace then two mile cool down with eight 100 Meter strides. I could feel the soreness in the legs, but it felt good to do some speed work. My overall pace was 6:47. This is my only run for today. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

P.S.: Is there anyone out there going to see the movie 2012? I would sure like your oppinion on that show. Do you think it is going to happen?

There were a lot of people there, I am thinking around 200. The race started good a little windy, but nothing too bad. My pace in the beginning was around 5:30 minutes per mile and after looking at that I decided that I needed to slow down. When I race I try to run my last mile faster than my first that helps me from going to fast in the beginning. But I was feeling good and wanted to push it a little. So I took a risk and tried to keep my per mile pace around 6.00. It was funny I passed this high school kid and the guy behind me told him not to let me pass. But I passed and I was able to gain a little on him. And that same kid caught back up with me and passed me, but he timed it wrong and I was able to use him as a shield from the wind. I am not sure if that was that cheating, but that is what happened. The first place finisher was a BYU college student and there were a lot of High school students. I am happy with the race. My per miles average was 6:03 and that is a PR for me. After the race my wife told me what happened when I was running into the finish line. She said that the announcer was saying "I know this person and that person up to me and when he seen me coming in he said that he did not know me and that we should cheer me in." I guess the way he said it was really funny. Thanks for reading and have a great day…

Ran six miles at a 6:36 pace on the t-mill at a 1.0 incline. I was feeling a little tired but i think it was from the race last week. Also the treadmill i was using stopped me at a 1/2 hour of running, so i had to restart the machine to finish my run. Have a good night
