Clyde's Comeback!

Easy mountain miles at 10,000 ft+ elevation. Legs feeling a little sore now.

No running today. We have been camping for the last few days and today we had to pack up and come home... Got stuck coming off the mountain and about a block after we got out from being stuck we ran out of gas in the old 74 Ford 4x4. Needless to say by the time we got home and unpacked it was to late to do a run.

I'll cut back this week and next to give my body some time to heal and to get ready to run the half in Bryce on July 17th.

9 mile morning run

9 mile afternoon run

Felt great this morning. It was cooler than usual and I felt really stronge and healthy.

This afternoon was tricky- it wasn't as cool as it looked. Even thought it was overcast it was still around 100 and I talked myself into going out at 6:30 p.m. About 6 miles into the run started to feel dizzy and weak- I was by the hospital so I stopped by my office and called my wife to have her pick my up on the way home. After getting a drink and walking it out I continued on hoping she would show up and rescue me. But I made it home before she finished her stuff at work. Bad run... but glad to get the miles in.

7 mile morning run.

8.3 miles with the club

Good afternoon run with the club. I had a side ache for the first 3-4 miles. I've had one the last 3 runs...don't get them very much; don't know why I'm getting them now. I've got to find a fix.

After the side ache went away I was able to get into a nice grove and felt really good. Pushed the pace from time-to-time along the route.

Its nice to get out and run with the guys. I find myself always pushing it harder when I know they are right behind me breathing fire down my neck.

5 miles in moring

5 miles in afternoon

Went with the club.

It was at least 12 could have been more. Good run. Fun to go up and run around Central. Really nice temp...
