I got to the running store at 5:40 am and met up with Bill. Clyde was out of town, Dave had XC, and Steve Olsen was running the marathon course, something must have come up with Hooper because he wasn't there either. Anyway, Bill and I had a good run down Dixie Drive around the Black Hill, we stopped for a drink and quick bathroom break at the Dixie Center then made our way over to River Road, then up and back through town and back to the store on Diagonal. The run measured at 13.50 and we averaged 7:35 pretty nice comfortable pace. Bill kept speeding up in the beginning, I didn't have much energy this morning. I got home, ate a quick breakfast then ran 5 more miles. I went over Hurricane Middle School and watched the high school cross country meet then came back. Now, I'm pretty tired. I still need to get 4 more miles to make it 70 for the week, so I'll have to go out again tonight, once it cools off. Cumulus-129.5 Nimbus-325.5 Well, I got out again tonight and did the 4 miles that I needed to in order to hit 70 miles for the week. I am pretty happy about that, and plan on giving it a better effort next week and get more miles in earlier in the week. I was really proud of Jordan tonight, he went out and ran 2 miles, he is getting ready for 6th grade football and the coach has encouraged them to run a little to get into shape. |
