| Haven't done too many distance runs lately and I can sure tell. I've lost my stamina. Maintained a decent recovery pace but with the wind and little bit more mileage than I've been running it was some work. With all my sleeping problems lately, I finally got some ambien and slept last night for the first time in awhile. Hopefully I can just take it for a few days and get my body back and stop. |

Had the opportunity to do another medium run. What a beautiful day, cool but no wind, it was a treat. After two nights of sleep I feel like I have a lot more energy. Hopefully I can get off the sleeping medicine and be ok here in a week. For some reason my left hip joint is starting to hurt a little. I think I might keep it a little shorter mileage wise the next couple of days and see how it feels. |

| For a short run this really worked me hard. Need a quick run so I went to the gym and did a TM workout. I'm still pretty blasted from yesterday and I tried to sleep last night without and aids but that didn't work to well and lack of sleep sure didn't help recovery. |

| Cool and windy made for a decent morning run. Grabbed the dog and just went this morning. I figure he needs more exercise than I'm giving him. That is one really good thing about him, is that he gets me out. |

| This was my Just Cuz go get my wife and get her to the finish line run. First 4 uphill miles went good. Held a good pace, just got told I was going the wrong way by everyone. Nikki was able to finish strong and it was a good last few miles with her. |

Morning run. Just me and Hutch. Only passed two cars, it was a beautiful morning nice and peaceful. Only sound was the coyotes howling. Took the pace easy and relaxed. I usually do a progression run but decided on going outside instead. Days like this will be hard to come by and since I don't have a race in awhile I did a tempo run instead. Felt pretty good but I have some type of a hip pointer or muscle pull in my butt. Once it warms up on faster pace it feels ok, slower paces it doesn't really bother me too much. 44:01/6:40. |

| TM progression run. Started at an easy 7:14 pace then slowly dropped to ending pace at around 5:55. Overall 6:40 pace 13.1/1:27:22. Time was almost dead on my St. George half split time. Energy levels good. Only complaint is the TM auto shut down on me at an hour and I was cussing it trying to get the pace back up, was hitting all of the wrong buttons all the ladies in the gym must have been wondering what was going on. Now its pretty funny.... |

| Work and church obligations got me yesterday and I wasn't able to go, so today I decided to take advantage of slow work and a beautiful fall day and do a decent mileage run. I tried to maintain an even pace 7:15 and held 9 miles at that pace the only exception were the first couple of miles when I was trying to find my pace. The las few miles I pushed the pace closer to 7:00 just to see if I had a little left and hit that and held it with ease. Overall pace was 7:09 which is a good medium pace. I remember when this distance was almost a twice a week occurrence, now I need to psych myself up for it. |

Easy AM run with Nikki. Cold and windy. PM TM run. Warm up 1-7:03, 2,3,4,5-6:18, Cool down 6-6:39. Really tired today crashed after the run this morning while making my son's bed for about 15 minutes. I was hoping on doing a few more miles but decided to shut it down before I really used all my energy for the day. Need to have some fun tonight my oldest daughter turned 13 today. Time sure does fly by...seems like yesterday she was a little baby riding in the backpack for campouts, now she is so big. |

| I'm either turning into a princess or a rat...to windy outside so I ran on a treadmill again. I was really excited this morning when I saw the weather and even brought some cold weather gear for this afternoons run, but when the wind came up it blew away my will to run outside. I ran in this type of weather all spring but now... I must have gotten spoiled with the great weather this summer ... can't handle the wind. Turning soft and it's just beginning. |

| Late afternoon run. I'm not real sure what kind of funk I'm going through right now but it is not fun. I feel great and energized when I start but a few miles into it I'm feeling really fatigued, I can slow down for a minute and pop right out for another mile then back down again. It has been kind of tough getting in miles. I'll probably drop miles quite a bit next week while in Boise for Thanksgiving. Hopefully sleep, vacation, less miles and getting back on supplements will change things back around. 10.2/1:08:30 |

| 5 quick miles at the gym. I was in meetings all afternoon on a pretty exciting venture the I'll be in on and developing over the next six months or so. It is good to be excited about learning new things again maybe this is why I felt refreshed to run or it might have been that I knew all I could squeeze in was a short run. Progression run Warm up 1-6:59, 2-6:39, 3-6:21, 4-6:18, 5-5:55. 5/31:48. I got my shipment of supplements today so it looks like I'm back on them again. I going to try to pay attention to energy and fatigue levels very closely the next little bit. I really don't want to be paying for something that's not working but I was on them all summer and I was able to train and still have energy most the time. Big reason is that I've felt my distance runs have suffered tremendously since I stopped.......we'll see. |

| Great run this morning with Jeff. Weather wasn't too bad and running up Sunnyside kept the wind off of us. It was a really enjoyable run and was good to get out and run with a friend. Now for a slow day at work. Might go help another friend cut some wood if he's home. I'm kind of hoping for that because it will break up the afternoon boredom and give me an excuse to leave work early. |

So my plans changed almost by the hour today. I checked the weather forecast last night and said "hey I might run outside tomorrow". Then I woke up and it was really cold and said "maybe gym", later on I flip flopped again. To make a long story short around 2PM I decided to run outside. Shorts, long sleeve shirt, hat, gloves and compression socks, I figured I was bundled up enough and took off. I decided on my route that has several length possibilities. After 5 miles I decided not to go the longest and cut off to the shorter loop that still had 3 options. At mile 7 I was still feeling good but not really ready to go for the longest loop and settled for a good medium distance loop. I was able to hold MP relatively easy for most of the run other than when I went straight into the wind but as soon as I turned out the legs kicked back up. Pretty happy with the run today. I did somehow manage to tweak my right ankle and the muscle right below the ankle joint along the bottom of the foot is very tender. I'm going to heat/ice it tonight and see how it feels in the morning. 11.79/1:18:56/6:42 This is now day 4 of being back on the supplements and I can feel a difference. I seem to have more energy before and the run today didn't tax me like they have been doing. My legs felt like they had more pop for a longer time which was good and I will continue to monitor how I feel and energy levels. I'm planning on cutting back this week and taking it easy so tomorrow looks like I could be elk hunting with the boys and just seeing how things fall it might be a spotty week of running for me.

No run today, went hunting with the boys instead. Had a great time, no elk just cold. On a different note I think I may have really screwed up my foot not ankle as I thought. The exterior bone on my right foot is in just about unbearable pain if I step wrong. I tried ice/heat and boy that was the wrong answer. I made it hurt worse, so if I don't walk or step on the heel of my foot I'm fine. It needs to be loose in my shoe to feel ok. SO now its a wait and see, I might be spinning for a bit if I can't run tomorrow.

| No runs the last two days and the foot is still tender, so I skipped the turkey bowl to take it easier on my foot. I went to the gym and rode a bike for 7 miles on a simulated course. It took 22min and I was sweating like a pig when I was done. Then I decided to hop on a TM to see how the foot would react. I ran 1.5 in 10:22 and decided that was probably enough. It felt ok but I didn't want to push it at all. |

| Easy run. I was just testing out my foot. Once it warmed up it felt much better and I was able to increase my pace but I never really pushed it. Tried to go a lot on how it felt. It is still tender but doing much better. These last couple of days have been really good for me, a lot of sleep and relaxation. With the cut back in miles and activity I'm pretty much rearing to go but know I need to heal. I'm still taking my supplements, although I have cut back because of less activity. It has been a good week so far and I'm really enjoying the slow down. This will probably be close to Christmas break for me so two good breaks will put I good kick start into next year's training. |

Huge break last week and it felt good. Foot is feeling much better and I should be back to normal before too much longer. On my way to Louisville, KY for the big RV convention hoping that I will be able to get in decent run tonight at the hotel. PM run on the hotel treadmill. The neighborhoods don't look so good so I'm sure I going to do all my runs on the over-used worn out treadmill that is here. I'm more or less guessing on distance because the pace and distance were completely inaccurate. I feel pretty bombed so I'm guessing I could've gone farther at a faster pace but I'm trying to guess conservatively. All I know for sure is I ran for 1:15. Foot is feeling much better and energy was ok today. Considering I was in bed late from getting home last night and up at 4:00AM I think I'm doing ok. Now for some sleep and trade show tomorrow. |

| This is another guess at miles. The old treadmill hill just doesn't work or read right. Thought about running outside but changed my mind because I don't want to end up in the wrong place. Maybe I'm just to sheltered and worry too much. Southeast Idaho just seems so much safer looking and cleaner. |

Morning run. Time change is now not so bad, so when I woke up at 6:00 it didn't feel like 4:00 so I went for a great TM run. Still just guessing on miles no idea with this TM. Run time 38:10. Done with the show early so I was able to head outside. I found a quiet neighborhood and just made laps. 7.39/47:30/6:26. Foot has been bugging me today. It really has been hurting to walk on but running feels fine. I know I need to be careful so it heals up but its a little hard to lay off the running much when it feels fine doing it. It might been the difference in how my foot hits the ground or it could even been the dressier shoes I've been wearing for the show??
