Busy day.. Started with getting concrete poured for the bball pad (looks real nice 28 x 32)  then Jordan went in for a gum graft and wisdom teeth taken out (not fun).  Of course the day I do concrete we get the only hard rain we've had in months.  Finally tonight I got out and did 9 miles easy over 600 North to Valley Academy and then down to Wendy's and back on 400 South.

16 miles down the marathon course with Mike and Bill.  We started at the start line and I felt pretty good until about a mile from Veyo, when I needed a bathroom stop bad.  Made it to Veyo and stopped, then took it easy up Veyo hill.  I really struggled the second part of the run today, we finished at the entrance to Snow Canyon State Park.  Today was not one of my better runs, but still good to get out and get the miles in.  This was my highest mileage week since 2011.

I did another 2 miles this evening to make it 60 miles for the week.

Decent run this morning with Mike, Bill, and Scott out around Sand Hollow.  We did the route in reverse which worked out ok.  I felt pretty good overall, even had a few faster miles toward the end.

2 miles with Joslin in the stroller.

4 miles around La Verkin went down through Overlook Subdivision.  I had Joslin in the stroller so it was very slow miles, plus Monday morning I always seem to gain back all the weight I lost during the week on Sunday.

Good workout this morning Toquerville Tempo.  I did 9 miles with 6 at tempo pace.  I drove out to Anderson Junction did 1 mile warm-up and then started at mile marker 6.  The training plan called for 6:39 for a pace, but I was able to hit 6:20 and felt fine.

2-6:06

3-6:28

4-6:31

5-6:05

6-6:32 Slowed down a bit at the beginning and grabbed a water bottle, finished the mile by turning into Riverwoods and running almost to the first gate at Confluence Park.  Actually not a bad mile only about .40 on dirt road.

Overall 38:00 (6:20)

Basketball this morning, not feeling too good.  My body is pretty sore and I didn't sleep very good.
