Little Buddha

Today we had Stake Conference, it was pretty good most of the messages were related to Hastening the Work.  After conference, just spent most of the day resting.  Yesterday, I ran 16 miles down the marathon course, not a very good run, later in the day I did another 4 miles down to the river.  Friday didn't do much drove for a few hours after school  Thursday night I went to round table and got some training on rechartering and friends of scouting.  Tuesday I drove after school and then went on a run with Bill and then went to Jansen's football game. Their team got beat pretty good, but Jansen did have a couple of good plays.  Monday I didn't have work, didn't do much.

Just 3 this morning

Pretty decent workout.  Did 6 mile tempo run from Anderson Junction to Riverwoods.

1 mile warm-up in a light rain.

1-6:25 some uphill

2-6:15 not as fast as it could have been, right knee and left calf still buggin

3-6:34 decent mile considering the rolling

4-6:29 most pleased with this mile as it has some uphill leaving Toquerville and is usually slower

5-6:12 good mile, I used to run this quite a bit faster but just kept it under control today.

6-6:42 a little uphill in the middle and then the last .4 on dirt which was a little tricky today with all the rain.

38:42 (6:27 avg) the training plan just called for a 6:43 avg, so I was happy I was able to run a little faster.

For a cool down I ran 4 miles over to the river, which was flowing very fast and out of its bank in a few spots, very dangerous, but also cool to watch.  I made sure I didn't get too close, but still had this weird feeling of excitement.

Basketball could hardy move.

Didn't run tonight, driver's ed went long as I had to change a flat tire and then decided to mow the lawn.  Actually felt good to rest the knee.

Ran down to Pah Tempe and then up the river did 6 miles total knee pain wasn't as bad as Tuesday.

La Verkin Loop

6 miles over to Hurricane and back

Better run for me this week compared to last weeks run down the course.  Last week I did 16 and averaged 7:54 today I did 20 and averaged 7:28 ran 2:29:20 and felt pretty good.  Not really much knee or calf pain.  I did have a weird pain the last mile on the top of my right foot?  Anyway, took it pretty easy the first 4 miles and up Veyo, then a little faster through Dammeron and down the Volcano.  Glad to get this run in and how it turned out.
