Well nothing long, but still nice to get out.  This was the first run Sunny has done in a long time. We just did the cow field and back.  I fixed the tires on the jogging stroller and we brought Joslin along.

5 miles from Color Country Auto, had to drop my truck off to get the ball joint fixed. Anyway this was not a very good run.  I averaged only 9 min pace and had to stop a number of times, very windy out and I just felt terrible.

4.5 mile run.

I started with Sunny and we went over past Farmer's and back on 300 West to 200 North then she headed home and then I went on to Pah Tempe.  I struggled again on this run, no energy.

Unplanned tempo workout.  Sunny drove me out to Anderson Junction.  I did 1 mile warm-up then 2 x 2 miles.  The first two miles was 13:14 (6:36 pace) then I stopped went the bathroom at the church in Toquerville, then did .25 recovery then did the next two 13:28 (6:43 pace)  I would have preferred to just have ran 4 miles, but I was really having some stomach issues after the first two, glad the church was open. Finished with 1.75 miles home

I ran down through Pah Tempe, then up the Overlook trail, did a little exploring over by the "L" trying to determine if an eagle scout project for Jansen would work or not.  Once I was back on the road I ran into a large bull snake.  I'm not a fan of any kind of snake.

I have really struggled this spring with allergies.  Today was no different, just a lot of coughing and a struggle to be outside.  I ended up not running, hopefully I will feel better tomorrow.

7 painfully slow miles. I did the Valley Academy loop right after school and it was pretty hot outside.  I didn't feel very good, but hey at least I got some miles in.  Still struggling with a cough and allergies.

I will call this the Tractor Supply Loop. I ran out on 600 North and then came back on State Street, this was my longest run of the year and also my highest mileage week of the year. I felt pretty good for most of the run, even though I was fighting a strong headwind for much of the run.

Tonight I ran on the treadmill at the gym.  I did the last 6 miles of the Boston Marathon Course on ifit, pretty cool.
