Personal: BSRools, the B stands for Brent and the S for Sylvie. The Rools come from my personal running rools over the years: Never complain once the run starts, allways pick up the pace into the wind and always pick up the pace on a hill. If someone whines, pick up the pace. Once a goal is set, no whining, regardless of setbacks. We were running when running was not Kool. Kool comes from a race story, ran my first race, 5K wearing a "beanie that had "Kool Aid Kid" Favorite Blogs: |

Early morning run with Sylive, north on the JRP trail 6 miles and back home, legs were like heavy today, good mentail day to pick up the feet when they said no way. Got a late start, got hot and muggy coming home. The transients are hitting the trail when you get to 3300 south, sleeping along the river, hum, what a life.
Home, rode the spin bike for two hours, good 20 mph effort,
Circuit workoout - 4 x 90 second wall squats, 400 rubber band swim pulls, 140 reps on excerecise ball for hamstrings, inversion thingie 4 times, 105 dumbell crunches, flys, curls, abs, etc. sweaty as heck, headed for the shower.

Spin while watching a Triathlon, 37 miles, good effort - keep after it.
Legs somewhat run weary, give er a try tomorrow morning, tough to get legs in running shape when only able to run limited miles.

Run with Sylive and Roxie this morning, north along JRP. Started the run thinking I would just speed walk as my knees have been giving me trouble. While waiting for Sylvie to get ready did some stretching of the IT band, really helped, resulted in running about 80% and speed walking 20%, good effort. Stopped and talked to the DC the Utah running legend. Always good to chat, he is still one heck of a runner. Muggy day, passed a few runners, held off a couple, pushed the small inclines, worked on form, etc.
Swim 1 mile at Murray Rec Center, worked on form and grabbing water, nice effort. I may do a circuit workout this evening. Over time, this multiple workouts, getting ready for Tris, my reconvery time is better and have adapted to the challenge.
I wish we would have ran the Des News 10K today, maybe next year.
30 minutes spinning, two circuits, wall swats, etc.
