I decided to give my left leg a break from the ponding of the road today, opted for the eliptical and tried pounding out 30 min on the wondeful beast and did 200 crunches. I will see how the leg feels tomorrow. It's get up hand go time I don't have time for injuries at this point. Rolled out the hammies and the quads with the big hard foam roller, also did the IT Bands.

I did a run out to Little Bro's mini gu corner today, my left leg did okay until mile 2 and then it started to have kind of  the same old problem of the last few weeks. I hung with it though and tryed to make the best of it. Did a few hill repeats and then headed home for 25 min on the bowflex upper body strength training. Finished with 200 crunches. I will take tomorrow off and try for a long run early sat morn.

Nice long run today, however it sure was on the very warm side at 5:30 am, the truck said 72 degrees. So lots of sprt drink and water. I ran out to little Bros's house aka Rambo Jr. stopped and talked to him for min and he seems to be doing well. My left leg was a bother the first 6 miles and then it just all of a sudden loosened up and was able to do my old man stride for the second half of mt run today. after the turn around at Rambo Jr's house made my way back to Gu Corner, refuled and did a golf course loop to home. All in all it has been a great week of training, Park City Marathon is a month away. YIKES!!!!!
