Thought about running, but that doesn't count for much.  Too many other things going on right now.  Busy with Driver's Education tonight and making some sub plans.

Slept half of the night with the Strassburg sock on the right foot, still too early to tell if it helped much.  I wore it on the left foot for about an hour during the night.  The left isn't as bad as the right.

Went and played basketball this morning, felt pretty tired for most of the 70 minutes that I played

This week has not been a good week for training at all.  However, I'm fine with that just trying to get over the PF stuff still.  I've also been very busy with going back and forth to Salt Lake twice this week.  I am signed up for the 5K tomorrow at the Snow Canyon Half, so that should be a interesting race/workout

This hasn't been a very good week of training, been pretty busy with many other things going on.

Got over to the race pretty early and did a 2 mile warm-up.  Didn't recognize anybody at the start.  I saw one guy that looked fast and two women that I figured would be pretty fast.  The one girl was wearing SUU gear, so I figured she would probably be pretty fast.

1-6:02 I started off prett fast and the SUU girl and the guys I figured was pretty fast both went out with me.  We were all pretty much together for the first mile.

2-6:03 I struggled some on this mile and dropped to third, stomach started hurting like I needed something to eat.

3-5:51 I felt a little better during this mile, but couldn't close the gap much on the second place guy.  He ran like 15 miles faster than me and I think the girl beat me by about 50 seconds.

.13- 42 seconds.

18:39 (5:57 pace) Anyway, it was nice to get out and run a little faster.  I think I could have broken 18 if I would have been in better shape and racing harder, but I still felt like it was a good experience.

I got a cool heart rate monitor as an award, so that part was nice.  I really want to get this PF healed up so I can get back to training.  I would like to do the Painter's Half in January and be in better shape.

Played basketball this morning.

Tonight I ran over to Hurricane High and watched Jordan's basketball try-outs and then ran home.  It was a good run tonight 6.5 miles averaged right around 7:30 pace.  They are coming along pretty good on the road work.  I was able to run a lot of the route on the new sidewalks.

Busy night with Driver's Ed, then I spent the rest of the night watching the Jazz game.  I need to figure out how to get a T.V. in front of my treadmill, then maybe I could run while watching the game.  Instead I just sat on the couch.

No run busy night again.  Next week things should slow down a little.  My PF has still been bugging me quite a bit.

Basketball this morning.  I'm planning on starting a 10 week cycle today leading up to the Painter's Half Marathon.  I've been taking it pretty easy since the marathon, well pretty much all year.  I'm still dealing with PF pain in the right foot.  The left foot doesn't seem as bad as it was.

Not liking this time change stuff, by the time I get home it is dark.  Anyway, tonight I opted for the treadmill.  I did 1 mile warm-up, then 4 x 800m @ 6:00 pace (that is all the faster my treadmill will go)  It was an ok workout did 1 mile cool-down.

Basketball this morning

I'm really surprised how sore my quads have been since doing the 800s on the treadmill.  I really didn't think I was running that fast or hard, but I'm still sore two days later.

Ran out toward Toquerville to (Paul's house) 3 miles in 21:40 (7:14 average) I came back a little faster 20:48 (6:55 average)  This was a good run, even with the PF hurting and the quads feeling sore.

Got up this morning and went and ran with the club, big group Clyde,Dave, James, Logan, Steve and Bill.  We did a loop from Dave's down to the the river trail then Bill and I cut up by Maverick then up by the mall and back to Dave's.  This was a good 10 mile loop. The first 5 were faster as we were with the group, then we slowed down then next 6, Bill was having some hips problems this morning.  The weather was pretty chilly, but still glad I got a run in, the last few weeks haven't been very good training wise.
