Training

Back home to rainy Idaho Falls.  Took advantage of a break in the rain to run 8.6 miles from home down to the valley and back.  Nice running weather and no wind.    Pace - 7:48

Slow daybreak run around Comore Loma. Nice morning run with temps in the low 40's and no wind.  It started raining shortly after I finished. Pace - 8:30

Morning run through Comore Loma for 4 miles. Pace - 8:01

Noon run around the greenbelt for 6 miles on a very nice day. Ran with jtshad for one fast (for me) mile.

4 miles around home at 5:30 AM.  Every day I get attacked by a small black bird about half a mile from home.  He follows me for about 100 yards hovering 2-4 feet over my head and chattering  like mad.  Pace 8:03 

AM run around the neighborhood on a nice, but overcast morning.  I know I am not a morning person, but I really struggle with getting a decent pace going in the early AM particularly with all the hilly sections.  It seems to affect me more than later in the day.  The attack bird sneaked up on me today, but only harrassed me for about 100 ft.  I am thinking he would make a nice treat for my cats.  Pace - 7:48

Noon run on the greenbelt.  The clouds parted for a while and made for a great 6.2 mile run.  Pace - 7:22

Raining hard this morning at home so I reluctantly went to the gym for a short TM run. I ran later this morning since I had to wait for a contractor we hired to start some repairs on the garage.  Sometimes it would be nice to just rent

Noon run of 7.3 miles with sunshine around the greenbelt. Pace 7:37
