9.5 miles this morning. Up to the overpass, but then back down the dirt road up into GS and back home around Middleton. I'm trying something different this week...but I can't say what until after the fact.

8.1 mile run this evening. I got hot fast and hard today. It was 90+ degrees today here in the STG and that's just a little too warm, too fast. I got fried on my neck and arms out working today and then came home and zapped all the rest of the energy out of my soul on a run. I can take the heat I just have to work into it.

9.5 mile morning run. Same as yesterday. I've been troubled the last two day with shin splints...... I guess thats what it is. I've never had them before, ever. Why would I suddenly get them in my right shin? I'm hoping they leave just as fast as they showed up. 

I'm still gearing up for my big new "thing" tomorrow. That is if I'm healthy without too much stress from the shins.

Happy 29th Birthday to me. I decided to give myself the gift of running a mile for every year so far... that will be 29 today. Not all at once however.

My gift to you is this great song and video. Take the time to watch it. You wont be disappointed.

13.7 mile run this morning. Shin was a little sore but nothing sharp like yesterday I'll just have to monitor it.

15.5 miles this afternoon in the wind. I had it all planned out on the distance so I'd be right on but I didn't plan for the short detor to a port-o-potty. So that put me over 29 on the day, not by much though. Nothing too glamorous to report. I didn't even hit the "Wall" at 27.

7.8 mile run up through GS and over the hill on the powerline trail. Not sore at all from the extra miles yesterday, but I am a little wore out. However it's been a busy week with everything else too. Almost no pain at all in the shin.

10.3 mile run this evening with the club. We left the store and Bill pushed the pace as he is really running well now and looking strong as he prepares for the World Sr. Games. Steve hung back with the other guys and Hayden and I just clipped along down past the the light by the high school and over to the potty park. Then we turned around and started to push the pace a little back to the store. We ended up hitting 6:49 min/mile pace for the run. It was a good little push on the last 4 miles or so. I'm not sore from yesterday but I'm tight- if that makes any sense.

9.5 mile morning loop. Same run as Tuesday morning. It's the end of the week and I can feel it. I'm just trashed and ready to be done for the week. With everything not just running. Looking forward to all the bloggers who are running SLC. Good Luck guys!

Group run down at the Dixie Center. We did the first 12 miles at like 7:40 pace. Just really relaxed and chatty. Then we started to move the pace down progressively and I finished with the last 3 miles being at 6 min pace. Ok run for whats just been an o.k. week. It feels like I've been kind of flaky in my training this week. But I've been really busy with work and it just drained me. Plus I had the shin thing early in the week and some really sore hammy's the last part of the week. Oh well!
