Today I ran out past mini gu corner and back, very hot temps 96 degrees at the begining of the run. My left leg is still dealing with the weakness and kind of spasamie, just won't let go so I can run the way I would like to. I did use the big roller after the workout today it seems to feel a little bit better anfter I go through those exercises. I did 25 min on bowflex upper body and 200 crunches.

Nice training run with a 10k race. Ran with my Brother Clay (aka Rambo Jr.), Daughter in Law Katie, and a Niece and Nephew, Annie and Mike Simons.

Rambo Jr and did a little warm up ran to the start from my house, 3.16 miles and then did the 10k race, ran back to my hose which kickes in another 3.25. So a nice training run to get ready for Park City Marathon next month. I was wondering how my leg would do today I think I surprised myself and was able to do a bit better than I thought. So hopefully things will hang on through Park City. My mile splits for the 10k are as follows.

Mile 1. 10:05

        2. 8:25

        3. 8:23

        4. 8:51

        5. 9:16

        6. 8:44

         .2 8:03

All in all did okay was fun to run with family members who all finished well.
