| | Today ran with Ted and Sasha. It was a good run for a Monday morning...always my worst day to run. We averaged a 7:35 pace with a faster last 3 miles then the first. The movers came today to move all of our stuff down to Fort Benning, GA. It has been kind of crazy and we are glad it is over, but our apartment is so bare now! Oh well, we are still excited for the adventure ahead of us! |

| | Ran today with Ted (LTC Leblow). We did a nice longer loop involving Carterville Road. We averaged a 7:27 pace with a slow first mile. For the final mile we picked up the pace pretty well. The first half mile was just under 7:00 pace and last half mile was a 6:05 pace. Incredibly enough the last mile actually felt better than the first 8.5! I don't know what it is, but I feel a lot better when we are able to pick it up in the end. Hopefully I can maintain that kind of pace for the 5K coming up in Orem this Saturday. |

| | Today's 6 miles were pretty fast. Probably the fastest yet in a weekly run. Ran with Sasha, Jeff, Ted, and Tyler. We averaged 7:08 for the whole thing, but finished the last 3 in 6:48. It was rough, but it felt nice to have that mental confidence that I can run that fast! |

| | Today ran with Ted and Vern, a friend from the Army ROTC. The weather was great, but once the sun came up it was a bit warm. We averaged about a 7:12 pace which was great. We finished the last two miles pretty fast which made up for the 6 others that were a bit slow. Our splits went something like this: 8:10 7:22 7:22 7:23 7:20 7:18 7:00 6:27 It felt really good though, especially those last two miles. That should give me some mental confidence for the 5K Saturday! |

| | Today was a larger group. I ran with Sasha, Jeff, Ted, Tyler and Vern. We took it easy today because of the race tomorrow. We averaged about a 7:34 for the whole thing. Feeling good and excited to see how my 5K time will drop! |

Smile Center Memorial Day 5/10k 2009 (3.12 Miles) 00:19:43, Place overall: 8, Place in age division: 1 | | Hey hey, look at that! Ran the 5k today and set a PR. 19:43. I was realistically shooting for some between a 19:10-30, my legs kind of gave out on me the last mile. But I am still pretty stoked about that finish. I know that a lot of the really good runners weren't out there so my measly time got 1st in my age division, but you gotta start somewhere! My previous 5k time was 21:00 and that is the only other race I have run in. |
