Nice out and back past mini gu, very nice run with a stiff head wind on the way back. I did sign up for the Utah Valley Marathon today. I was not going to do this one this year, my neighbor talked me into it. Thanks Nate.

Today I got back into my hill repeats, have not done them for a week. It kicked my little behind today which gave me a great workout. Very windy cold run though, but we got it done. Now off to Young Men's and Young Women's.

Nice long run this morning with my son Bryan. After hearing the rain all night long I was not sure how it was going to be as far as the weather this morning. It was raining at 4:45 am when I awoke still pretty good, but by the time I made it out the door at 5:30 am it had stopped had really made for a nice run.

Did the golf course loop today, nice run but very windy coming back to home. My legs did real week today, and they did feel like pushing the pace .

Happy Birthday to my Brother Clay, it's his big 50th.

Headed out to gu corner today and then up power house road to the river trail head. Made my way back down the trail along the river which made for a very peacful run, I was able to contemplate about things going on in my life and get some perspective. I know that at times the Lord allows us to have adversity in our lifes to humble us and to bring more in line with Him. As I watch my youngest daughter McKenzie struggle with some health issues at this time and watch her courageous battle with Chiari. What an ugly disease this intruder is, we hope to get into a Nuro-Surgeon soon and hope they can do somthing to relieve her pain and discomfort. Hang tuff McKenzie you are stronger than you think, Daddy loves you little sweetness.
