So far this has been a terrible week for me training wise. It seems like every extra minute I've had since Monday I've been working on my tiling job. I think the end is finally in sight, finished tiling both the kitchen and dining room late last night and got a decent night's rest. My body has been pretty sore the last few days between all of the getting up and down and moving around on my hands and knees. This morning I did an easy 2 miles, and plan to get some more in this evening. Not much time tonight, did two more miles.

Did 9 easy miles tonight. I ran 2.5 before heading out with the running club. I had to head back early since Sunny and the kids were waiting for me at the running store. I had some real soreness in my hip area, woke up at 3:00 in the morning and my hip was still bothering me. It is probably just a case of not having ran the last few days and I'm not as lose as normal.

Kind of a difficult 11 miles this afternoon, still pretty warm outside. I ran out along 600 North trail to the golf course, one loop through Sky Mountain, then back home on the highway. I stopped at Lin's and stretched for awhile. I'm still feeling pretty stiff and sore

Didn't much want to run this morning, but I'm glad now that I made it over to run with the club, we did 20 on the marathon course and it went pretty good. The first ten I ran in 1:08:14 for a 6:49 average, then I reset my watch I wanted to push the next ten, but that didn't workout to well. I ran 1:05:19 for the last 10. The first 5.5 miles were good, then I started cramping up some and the soreness I've been feeling the last few days was bothering me more than it had been earlier in the run, so I slowed the pace down to about 7:00. In fact I met up with a 15 year old kid that was out training for the marathon and I ran about two miles with him, then picked up the pace again and finished pretty strong. Overall, not super pleased with the run, but it was not bad considering the week I've had. Total time would be 2:13:36, so maybe a minute slower than a few weeks ago, but I was also in a lot more pain today. Anyway, I think things will be fine, I would just like to have three more good solid weeks of training. I still think I'm on pace to run faster than I did last year.
