Wow it was windy today. Going out it was all I could do to put one foot in front of the other. Coming home I felt like I was being thrown forward.

I pushed the last few miles without too much effort. The last mile I started thinking about how long it had been sense I did an all out sprint, so the last 400 meters I gave it all I had. It's too bad I didn't have the garmin with me, but I felt like I was flying. My legs haven't moved that fast sense high school. I started thinking about how bad it would hurt if I should fall down.

Got home and went out again with my wife and did an additional 3 miles.

Had to travel to Moab for a work confrence. By the time I got done it was dark. The hotel didn't have a treadmill, but they had some sort of an outdated stair climber. I've never used one before, so I don't know exactly how to transfer over my hour I spent on it to miles. It was a lot tougher then I thought it would be. I haven't sweat that hard in a long time. I figure I did at least 5 miles.

Another windy day, felt pretty strong. Took it kind of slow and just enjoyed the run. Had a big coyote cross the road in front of me no farther then 75 feet. It just sat there and looked at me and the dog. I started wondering if I was lunch, so I yelled at it and it took off.

Ran with the wife and kid after my morning run. She had to stop and walk briefly a few times. I guess I wouldn't be running too fast either if I was five months along.
