Easy run with strides. Legs are a little tired from yesterday still it was hard to get them to turn over very fast. Beautiful morning run.

Easy progression run with Nikki. Ending pace around 7:00. Legs recovering from the week and starting to feel good for tomorrow's long run.

Last long run before St George. Didn't have much left at the end, but I guess that is to be expected on a week like this. 21 miles in 2:28, ending pace of 7:02. Tired to keep it as close to 7 as I could but didn't have the push left at the end to hold me. Still feeling good for the most part. Energy not zapped too bad. Now I get to start my taper!

Ran first 5.5 with Nikki at a slow pace and then picked it up for a speed work out at the end. Finishing the last 1.75 at a 6:30. Did not feel very good this morning body just was not quite right. Feeling fatigued and a little off. Probably will run a couple more miles tonight with my daughter to work on her pace for Saturday's Spud Run. 

 

Took the kids to the track and tried to get Brytan used to her 8min/pace goal (8x200 1min) for the Spud run 5K. I'm not so sure she can hold it for 3 miles but she has surprised me before. Chloe and Jonah both ran also.

Beautiful full moon out this morning. It must have gotten my dog all crazy because he decided we were going to run faster than I had in mind. We ended up going out at a decent pace just to come back at a below my desired MP. It was good though because legs are fully recovered and are still feeling strong. Energy level still good.

Mid morning run, easy run with sprints at the end. Felt good, maintained speed in sprints legs a little shaky from yesterday. Energy was good. Still feel like a could run a lot more. Hutch wasn't quite the runner he was yesterday, had to coax him along.

Easy run with my daughter. She ran the first 2 with me to she if she could keep her 5K goal pace. I think she will be close...Beautiful night run.

This run has just about killed me. I'm extremely tired. Legs are really sore and my knee feels like a beach ball. It was just me and the dog again at least he coaxed me on at the right times this morning. Ran a handful of miles close to MP but really did want to and couldn't do more.

Afternoon run, I figure I need to do a couple of these in case it is a hot start time. Windy but pace came pretty easy, really trying to be extremely conscious of pace now that the race is coming up. With the taper legs are feeling fresh and trying to keep pace slower has become a bit of a challenge. I'm wanting to run more than my schedule has me, I guess that comes with the weeks of a lot higher mileage. The more I think about the race the more nervous I get. I'm worried about staying mentally strong for this run. It will be my first marathon so I'm not sure what to expect.

Nice early morning run with Nikki. It was much cooler than I thought it would be. Good slow pace.

Great, easy run. Started around a 7:35 pace and ended at 6:40. Just felt like I was on cruise the whole time. Ran by feel and it all felt the same (watch was dead and used phone GPS instead). First time in a while I've ran with gloves and a hat. At least I didn't have to wear a jacket.

Easy run with some sprints. Great morning until my dog tripped me in the middle of my last sprint. I was real lucky to have been wearing gloves, which took the majority of the fall. He's never tripped me before but has been acting like an idiot this week. Maybe it is because I am tapering and he's not running as much....

Ran first part with Jeff, Gray, Curt, Nate and Lynette. It was a beautiful run and the first time I have ran with a group. Pace felt good and time went by pretty quick compared to running by myself. Getting excited for St. George next Saturday. Got home and decided to head back out for another 4 miles with my dog. Ran a 6:33 pace which felt really easy after being warmed up by Gray and Jeff. Really good morning.

All easy miles this week. Legs feeling good. Left knee did feel a little weak today and the right one swelled up a bit afterwards. Should be fine nothing new. Heading down tomorrow after the morning run.

Easy run. Sure was nice to run after the complete mess yesterday turned out to be. Thought I'd be headed down to St George but instead I was dealing with insurance agents and employees. Still way busy and I just about scrapped running St George but I've decided to go anyways and just cut the trip in half. Not sure how a night without any sleep will effect me.

Tough run, no energy. Lack of sleep is catching up fast. Need to relax and just take it easy next couple of days.
