Hard workout today. I started with a warm up out to gu corner then back to the hill that comes up out of the river bottoms by my house. I did ten 200m hill repeats today, the first six or seven I pushed hard. The last few were butt kickers. I am very whack right now. I finished with some time on the bowflex with an upper body workout.

Nice extended golf course loop today, the first few miles I was not to sure the legs just did not want to go. Then they seem to get into a good rythum and did really well the rest of the run. Surprising after sat 22 miler, maybe the hill repeats are doing soom good? Cross my fingers.

Hottest run of the year so far, it was 90 degrees after I got home from work. Threw on the running clothes, laced up the shoes and headed out to Harry's Hill and back. The legs did not want to go the first few miles, then they got into a good rythum and finished the run strong. It ended up being a great run.

Great moring for along run, cool to start out but warmed up quicly once the sun came over the mountain. I think my legs have hit the wall today, just whack drom the start. Yesterdays rest day did not do a lot of good. But we got it done, seen the usual group ou this morn they were all running great. I will start to taper now for Utah Valey Marathon, hope my legs come back quick. This has been a great wek of training.

Nice extended long run today around the golf course. Warmer today and a bit on the windy side, but that helped to icrease the cooling effect which made it not so bad.
