Another very warm run, I did the golf course loop today and agian added the the little side trail along the river. My legs did feel ok for the most part, but my energy levels seem to be a litlte on the down side. I think from the heat and my body just has not gotten use to it yet, may take a few days. I am planing on doing the 4th of July 10k in Provo on sat, I may do a little bit of a tapper this week we will see how we fell. I did do 25 min of Bowflex on my upper body and finished with 200 crunches.

On the way home from work the freeway temp sign said 100 degrees, my truck temp gauge said 99 degrees, sounds like perfect temps for a training, it was very hot. It did rain for a very brief min. and a few claps of thunder, but the smal amount of rain made for a very muggy run. I did the golf course loop again today, but my lags on the last mile were totally whack, infact I walked a hill have not done that for a while. It must be the heat but I like these temps bring it on summer. I did do 25 min on the Bowflex, upper body again and 200 crunches.

I was able to do a morn run today it felt good to get a break from the afternoon heat. I did the Old Bishop Stoerhouse route which gave me mostly an uphill workout today. The felt really muggy this morn so I guess we will see rain this afternoon. Have a great day.

There seems to be more and more runner's each year for this race, it is a challenging 10k the first mile is uphil and the last mile is uphill. Not my best time for a 10k, but it is a pr for this course. Last years time was over 50:00:00, My goal was to try and do a 7:30 pace doing well untill mile 3 and then I went through the dry heave thing. Not sure why that happens but I had to back the pace off a bit and was able to average a 7:54. It was very muggy and warm I think they need to start this a little earlier in the morn.
