Clyde's Comeback!

12 miles this morning. Ran the Dog Town/ New overpass loop in reverse- then added some in GS. Felt really fresh and smooth for a Monday. I hope to get some strong mileage in Mon-Thurs because this weekend will be very tight in time.

8.6 miles tonight after practice. Ran from the high school down to the river trail and up around Costco and home. When I was down by the river below Millcreek High I saw three teenagers who had sunk a new Ranger ATV in the river. It was pretty funny but I'll bet their parents are going to kill them. Those things are at least 10k a piece.

12 miles this morning. Same run as yesterday morning. A little sore and tired this morning from the workouts yesterday. Hopefully through the rest of wrestling I can continue to get in decent mileage so in the weeks that follow I can be ready to go.

The run today was good. I decided that the hill up out of Washington to the new overpass is a killer. It's just a long straight away and the hill keeps going and going. Other than that part this is a pretty good little 12 mile run and it's good because it only feels like a 9 miler.

8 mile run this evening after practice. I got home right at dusk and for some crazy reason wanted to run up to the powerline in the dark. So I started up the trail and tried to pull it off by memory. I stumbled a few times but made it up there and then dropped down into GS and did the usual loop. I picked up my new race team jacket from Steve tonight and they look great. I wore it tonight for a test drive. Now it's time for dinner and bed.

12 mile morning run. Broken record here but I did the same run as the last two mornings. It was cold out this morning and I really struggled to warm up. I didn't have a watch on but I ran it about 8 min's slower than the last two days. I never got into it. Anyways at this point I'm glad it's in the bank.

9.6 miles tonight. Actually I ran from my house to wrestling practice down through town. Then ran home after practice back over Formaster and up past Costco. It's cold and windy.

12 mile run this morning. Same as the rest of the week. Other than today it was cold. In the ballpark of 23 or so. That's chilly for STG. Too chilly I might add. Anyway I just went out and tried to have a good attitude the whole run making sure I had good posture and tried to keep it flowing... I did an o.k job on all but nothing great.

No running today. We left STG early to travel up to Orem to the Rocky Mountain Rumble one of the biggest wrestling tournaments this side of the Mississippi. We had a pretty good day but didn't get done until about midnight.

Got up early after a long day to hit the hotel treadmill. It was a junker... but it got me a few miles and a little quick workout.

Then back to UVU for more wrestling. We ended up doing fairly well. There was 60 teams there from all over the western region. We finished 8th and if one more kid would have won one more match on our team we would have been 6th. So it was a very good showing against some of the best competition you can get. It ended up finishing late Saturday night and I finally got home to STG at 3 a.m. Sunday morning. What a long weekend!
