Little Buddha

3.5 miles this morning. Ran 7 miles tonight, from house over to Ace in Hurricane, I had to buy a few items for Jordan's science project so figured I would just get my run in at the same time. Overall average was 7:06. Legs felt a little sore from race on Saturday but not too bad.  Good start to the week for me.
 

6.5 miles this morning @ 11:00 am.  We have Parent/Teacher Conferences this afternoon and evening so kids got out at 10:40, so I did a quick 6.5 miles up to the running store and back to the middle school.  Pace felt pretty good and it was nice wearing the (DS Trainers) today compared to the Nimbus the last few runs, much lighter and felt more speedy

2-6:46
3-6:47
4-6:53- had Snow Canyon Parkway Hill to deal with
5-6:39
6-6:29

Overall felt good average pace was 6:46
 

4 miles this morning. Rough run tonight, it was pretty windy with cooler temperatures. I was going to do a speed workout on the track, but decided to wait until Friday. I left from Snow Canyon Middle School and ran down through Sunbrook Golf Course, then over to Valley View Drive, this is where the run became harder, uphill and into the wind. I wasn't to concerned with the pace, I was feeling a little sore today, so I just figured I would focus on getting the miles in. After 5.5 miles I stopped in at the Running Store and visited with Steve for awhile, then decided I need to get going and finish up the run, by the time I got back to the school it measured as a 9 mile run with a 7:39 average, not to fast, but comfortable and I guess ok considering how I was feeling and the wind. Looking forward to the club run tomorrow, that will probably be my only workout, going to go use the stick tonight for awhile and massage the legs. (DS Trainer)

6 miles from the Running Store with Steve, Clyde and Toby up over the trail above Red Cliffs golf course.  I felt ok on the trail actually run a little faster than I normally do on the trails, but the pace was still pretty slow 8:27 overall.  Anyway good recovery day and planning on doing some speed tomorrow on the track.  

Basketball-4 easy miles this morning. Went out this afternoon and battled the wind here in La Verkin/Hurricane. One thing I really dislike about living out here is dealing with the wind everyday. Anyway did a 2.5 mile warm-up over to Hurricane High School track, the warm-up felt good and I figured I would have a decent speed workout, even though I was feeling kind of sore from the increase of miles this week. I was planning on doing two sets of 400, 800, 1600, instead the workout changed after the first 400 and 800. I just wasn't feeling to go and was not enjoying fighting the wind. So I changed things up and did the following

400-1:14 felt pretty good

800-2:38-easy

1200-4:15-not feeling to good, hip starting to hurt

800-2:43-backed off some of this repeat

400-1:15- decided to make one last push

Between each repeat I jogged a lap

Did 4 miles very easy back to my house, still planning on running some more miles tomorrow with the club which should finish a good week, but I'm feeling pretty sore right now.

Ran this morning from the Dixie Center with Dave, Clyde, Toby, and Brent.  I really didn't feel like coming this morning, but now that is it over, I'm glad I did.  We ran over to River Road then out south into the desert then back through Hidden Valley.  About mile 6 I had to stop and use the bathroom which took awhile, but felt much better afterwards. I was able to catch back up with Brent, but Dave and Clyde were long gone, and Toby had turned back a little earlier.  Total distance was 11.5 with an average of 7:19.  Pretty happy with my week of training, but ready to relax the rest of today and tomorrow.
