Little Buddha

Didn't set the alarm, so didn't have time for a very long run. I was only going to do 2 miles, but just took off and did the La Verkin 5K loop, basically still sleeping.

Debated about running on the treadmill or outside in the heat. I went ahead had dinner (BBQ sandwich, which we'll talk about later) then waited around for an hour. Decided to head out around 8 and ran over the 600 North trail to the Sky Mountain Golf Course. I wasn't feel too great to start out with and I was a little worried about my dinner. Anyway, by mile 3 I had to stop and lose half of my sandwich. I felt better after I threw-up so I continued on. Half a mile later I had to stop again, this time I lost the rest of the sandwich. Luckily I was close to the golf course, so I got cleaned up, drank some water then started a 3 mile tempo

Sky Mountain Tempo- 18:01 (average 6:00)

1-6:15 running through the neighborhood, a little uphill

2-5:56 starting to feel pretty good, some decent downhill

3- 5:50 some good downhill at the start, then it evens out the last half.

I was pretty pleased with this effort. However, I think I can get this time down to 17:30 or lower with a little work.

My main goal was just to run between 6:15-6:25 pace, so I was quite a bit faster than that.

Did one mile cool-down, then Sunny picked me up at Brentwood Bowling Alley

5 mile run this afternoon in the heat. I ran over to the library checked out a movie, then ran back home, very hot and windy.

16 mile bike ride with the boy scouts. This was challenging as it was similar to running with people of different abilities. We had some scouts that were in great shape, had the right kind of bike and cruised right along, then we had a few in the middle, and then we had a few we had to keep stopping and going back for. However, I was pretty pleased with the effort that the scouts made. I know it was a good workout for me. We rode from La Verkin out to Anderson Junction and back.

Went and played basketball this morning. I probably won't be going as much during the summer since I'll be trying to get my longer runs and workouts in before it gets too hot. I didn't run tonight came home not feeling the best.  I had a headache and felt pretty dizzy.

3 miles before the club run. I ran up state road 18 on the bike trail 1.5, then back down. Did the 7 mile loop with the club. Mainly ran with Mike and Dave. Nice to just chat as the miles went by rather fast and easy. Did one more mile loop with Bill and Aaron once we got back to the store.

Now the stress of packing and getting ready for a 10 day trip to Colorado then on to Wisconsin. Hopefully everything will be fun and workout once we get going on our trip. It is usually an adventure whenever we travel, with 3 kids (actually 4 if you count me). Sunny is really good at getting everybody organized.

Played ball for 1:20 this morning.  Driving to Colorado after work.

Only 3 miles so far today, ran on the treadmill at my parents. The weather has been cold and rainy
