Did a run tonight up the La Verkin twist to mile marker 15 and back down to my house. It was pretty windy and a bit chilly, plus going up the steep hill didn't help much. Overall, my body is still feeling a little sore, hips, knees and groin especially.

First part from house to mile marker 12-4:50 might be a bit longer than half a mile.

marker 12 to 13- 7:20

marker 13 to 14- 8:33, this is the steepest part

marker 14 to 15- 7:35

turn around and stretch a bit

marker 15 to 14-7:13

marker 14 to 13-6:51

marker 13 to 12-6:54

Easy jog home from mile marker 12-4:52.

Will continue to get out each day this week and see how the body responses, things should start getting a little easier. Fortunately I haven't gained much weight since the marathon and since my little vacation last week.

Anybody from the club, what time are we running on Thursdays and Saturdays now?

Dustin your mile splits look like mine right now- slow. I just can't get things going. I'm guessing it will take a while to shake this post marathon funk.

I think we are meeting at 6 p.m. on Thursday night and I'm not sure about Saturdays.

Dustin,

I think I ran it the other way around. I felt like I ran the

first half way to conservative and then was left with tons of energy

towards the end, and feeling like I should have ran the thing faster.

I've committed the same mistake. I've hit the wall a couple times now,

once at the valley of fire and once at Boston. They both came from

starting out too fast, thats why I tend to run the first half a little

slower now. It leaves me feeling strong towards the end, but always

wondering if I should have pushed harder.

Cheston.

I tired to send the previos comment two days ago, but it was sent back undelivered. I'm still trying to figured out this blog thing.
