12 mile morning run. It rained yesterday, and last night so I had to avoid any dirt areas. So today I just ran up into GS and did two loops there and back around Middleton the long way to hit 12 miles.

What an amazing morning. The desert smells so good after a rain. Today there was a thick fog up around the golf course area. It looked awesome and reminded me of doing runs in northern England.

The run felt pretty good for a Monday. I'm going to tapper off pretty good the last part of the week and with the race only be around 70-80 miles for the week.

8 mile run tonight. Up to the water tank and around industrial. Pretty windy on the run- I hate wind! Once I started down off the ridge and had the wind at my back for a while I just tried to relax and run. Also worked on a few breathing exercises to help open up the lungs. My allergies have been horrible the last couple weeks. Everything here has been growing and in bloom. From what I remember it usually goes away sometime in May.

The race went well. The winner was from Holland. He ran 1:16 and change. It was a good time for that race. We had about 327 runners.

The wind was a little tough this evening. Remember,wind and hills are speed work in desguise.

The wind tries to be in disguise but when it hits you right in the face it reviles it's self as the devil. I don't really even like it at my back to be honest. I do like hills though.
