Today my Bro and I ran another 10k race, pretty fun lots of people, and a nice morning, was alittle on the muggy side but very injoyable time. I wanted to try and get in under 50 min. and try and break that mark, missed it by about 20 seconds. I am going to try and do more speed work with some tempo runs at the 8 min. mile mark and see if I can improve. My bro clay ran a good race set a pr for him, so good job Bro. My ankle was a little stiff at the begining but seem to loosen up rather quickley and was not a factor, after the last couple of weeks of working to get my ankle back to normal I feel good about my effort today. SGM is comimg pretty quick, starting to get excited. Runner's Card had my time at 50:18, my Garmin showed 50:05 with only 6.13 miles, so I don'y think the course was accurate. average pace was 8:05.

Mile 1. 8:28 uphill

We will keep working hard I hope no more injury's between now and SGM. Knock on wood. After the race did alittle recovery run back to my house 1.5 miles

Still pretty muggy and ther was a good stiff breeze out of the canyon that was fun to fight exspecially around the golf course. My ankle was a little stiff at the begining, but lossened up quickley. My legs are pretty wack from yesterdays race. My total time today was 1:22:00, with an averge pace of 10:00.

Today my legs had absolutely no mojo. It was all I could do to finish my run. Most of my workout today was uphill, but I have done this route many times and have had tons of energy.My ankle seems to be almost 100%, I will give it 90% there. SGM date is creeping closer and closer sure hope I will be ready. My total time today was 1:23:40, with an average pace of 10:20, very slow miles.

I had to go into work at 5 am this morning so I was not able to get in a very good long run today. I ended up working most of the day. So when I did make it for a run it was'nt until 5 pm this afternoon. It was still pretty hot and that seemed to zap my energy for the run and ended the attitude for a long run. I only put in 10.5 for today. I did'nt feel very good at all and my legs seem to be wack still from tues. 10k race. I have been making a better effort at going to bed early but I just seem to lay there without any great quality of sleep. My total time was 1:45:35, with an average pace of 10:04.
