Met with Jon Heslop today at my place to head out for our 7 miler. Did the usual normal loop up into North Ogden. Both of us were feeling pretty good today. First time since coming back from surgery that I wasn't feeling heavy on a 7 mile run, and Jon was saying the same thing. He had about the same time off as me due to excess fluid in his achilles tendon. We both decided that one more week at the daily mileage of 7 then next week we will bump it up to 8.

avg pace today 7:05 min/miles

Met with Jon from his place. Headed east into North Ogden. about half mile in we saw about 8 deer and stopped and watched them for about a minute then went on our way. I made an well needed pit stop to hit the bathroom. From there headed east to the canal rd and made our way back west to the weber high track. There we did a 1 mile temp run, haha! Its all I am good for right now. Hit a 5:44 mile, then jogged back to Jons place. Another good solid run, and again no knee pain today, just minor inflammation still. I think that will subside in time.

Wasn't going to run today, came down with some type of stomach bug and my knee was a little swollen(not hurting), but decided that I would just go 30 minutes. All the times in the last six months when I wanted to go and I couldn't came across my mind today. So why not....

Met with Jon and his brothers from Jon's house. Headed to the canal road and headed west to the the Elk Farm, got to the gait where normally they have it fenced off because of the elk. But they have it opened back up, so Jon and I ran to the Parson gravel pit and then headed back. Pretty cool to see the elk up close, the entire herd was running with Jon and I. On our way back we put in a surge around 5:50 pace. Besides being sick this week, it was a pretty sold week, roughly back to half my mileage that I was at before my knee surgery. I give it at least 6 more weeks to be back to normal mileage, cant wait til I can hit some marathon paced miles again and shoot for that sub 2:25 in St. George. Also starting track workouts in a couple of weeks, cant wait to get the euphoria back! It has been way to long!
