What a nasty wind this afternoon. Had to put back on some of the winter running garb today. They say we onkly have a couple of 30 degrees days in march, I hope we get them over with quick. It was one of those runs were it felt like I was running aginst the wind no matter which way I was going. Coming back across the river bottoms going north it was brutal. Both legs were kind of bothering me at the start, today but after a couple of mile they seem to lossen up and they were not an issue the rest of the way. With the wind today I was having a hard time getting any rythum going, so I want post any times today, it was just steady as she goes kind of run. I alos did 30 min of upper body strength training, and 230 crunches.

Did the smelly run today, ran down senic, and came up through the river bottoms by way of the bishop's storehouse.  This run gives me a graduall uphill workout. My right leg kind of bothered me at the begining again, but after a couple of miles it was not an issue. I had a 9:30 pace for most of the run and 1 mile that was close to marathon pace at 9:11. I would sometime like to be able to hold an 8:30 pace. But we have a long ways to go to get there. The north wind coming back acroos the river bottoms was brutal again, it kind of took the ol wind out of my sails. It felt like I was running with a parachute on my back. It felt more like I was going backwards instead of  forward. It gave me a good workout. I also did 30 min of weight training on upper body, and increased my crunches to 285. I can't let Benn out do me. So far this week it has been a pretty good one.

Well we will see what tomorrow brings. Keep chillin ya all.

Went to bed about 7 pm last night, and got up at 1:30 am to be to work by 2:30. Worked until 9 am came home help clean house and then went for my long run of the week. I only did an 8 miler last weeks 10 I think was a little to much to early. I started out alot slower today to and felt better the whole run. I went up around the Spanish fork Golf Course and came down power house road to GU Corner back across the river bottoms road and home. It was a nice warm run felt good. Lots of bikers out and a few runners. This weeks training has gone pretty good. I feel comfy were I am at coming back from the injury bugs of earlier this year. I wil continue to build my base back slowly. I hope ya all have a great weekend.
