This week I have been really lazy in logging in my runs, I
am not sure why. Anyway, this week has been really good for me. Some days I
have been running faster than I am use to and other day either the same or a
little slower. I am trying to get back into my routine. Today's run went good;
I ran the course of my next race. I ran seven miles in the course and then back
seven miles. I was doing this for the Pocatello Marathon course and it really
helped me out a lot. So the first half went good I was able to keep a 6:50 pace then when I turned around and headed
back it was another story. I was running more up hill and a nasty little wind
was not helping me out. But I did realize how much of a down hill the course is
and another good thing is the big hill that I am scared of I was able to keep
and average pace of 6:30 going up
it. So I was really happy about that. Now I am down to five more times
practicing on the course. That is why I am doing this so soon after my half
marathon course. Then I came home and took a 2 ½ hour nap.For today list of honey do’s I get to clean
out the shed, but not before I have a big lunch and go to the movie. Anyway,
thanks for reading and have a great day!
I had a good run today with Kory. I ran eight miles and Kory
ran ten. I thought my legs were going to be really sore after my run yesterday
and to my surprise they were not :-). Kory and I ran together for four
of my eight miles and I could tell that he was feeling good and I was happy
with my pace, so I slowly watched him pull away. But at one point I decided to
try to keep catch up with him and I started putting on the speed, but all I did
was watch him pull away even more. So overall I am happy with my run. My pace
for today was a 7:08. So for today
they are having a Veteran’s Family Appreciation
Day, so my wife and I are going to attend. I am considered a Veteran because I
was in the Military during the Desert storm. Anyway, have an awesome day and
try to stay out of trouble :-).......
