Nice run around the golf course, I do not like the time change as it is almost dark by the time I get done with my run. The alst couple of miles it did get on the cold side as the wind picked up pretty good. I did 25 min on the bowflex with some crunches. It is my hope that I can get back into a routine this week. It has been a rough couple of weeks with the passing of my Grandaughter Emma. We miss her alot but we feel her love and know that she is near. I love you Emma

I did another golf course loop today, the air a bit warmer than mondays run. I just enjoyed finally geting out again, I need to do better with greater effort and consistancy. I did do 25 min on the bowflex upper body and some crunches.

Today I did an out and back, went out past mini gu corner. Very nice day temps were in the med 50's, ran in short sleeve which made for a very nice run today. I was to do some more work on the bowflex and some crunches. My legs are still a bit whack after not running much the las t few weeks. Just trying to build my base back and go from there.

Nice long run today and good conditions, we did get a good snow fall last night but the roads were clear by the time I made it out. I went to the top of harry's hill, actually felt real good today. Nice energy and the old legs had some go in them. It has been a good week of training, hopefully be ready for the half marathon un January.

I got out on my run this evening, so I opt to do some 400 meter hill repeats. It did feel good to push the repeats, even though the miles were lower today I feel like it was still a very quality workout. I am feeling good at the moment not tip top but we will get there.

I am down in Las Vegas, my son Bryan and I went out for a run. I like running here lots of hills and variation's of places to run. Nice trails and roads to run on, feeling good nice weather tempswere in the med to upper 50's for the run today. Should be in the upper 60's by days end.

Thinking alot about family members who are with us today in spirit. It has been a year sense my Brother Shane passed away. I miss him alot and wonder often what he is doing. Also it has been a month sense my Granddaughter Emma passed away. My heart is a bit on the heavy side as I think of both of them and the great lifes they both lived. Each an inspiration of facling lifes battles with courage, faith, and great strength. I love you both and miss you dearly.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving all.

Drove out to red rocks this morning and did a trail run with Haylie, Bryan , Katie, and Wendy. It was fun and a bit different running on a dirt trail. Cool scenery and grear company. The trail was steep in areas which made for a great workout. I have done lots of hill work this week.

Another nice run this morning, did more hills today with My son Bryan. I have not got in alot of distance this week. But I do feel that the quality of the workouts have be good with all the hill work. I was not planing on doing that many hills this week, it just worked out that way.

Heading home tomorrow, it has been a fun few days with the family and being able to be with Haylie. Emmas passing is still fresh on everyones minds and hearts. I will never forget her.

Nice run through the river bottoms, enjoying these nice days and nice weather. I know it's not going to last, so I am soaking it in. I also did 25 min on the bowflex with some more upper body lean workout and some crunches.
