Little Buddha

No run today, traveling home

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

Coming back from Salt Lake, then made it Sunny's appointment.  We are pretty excited found out we will be having a girl in March!

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.
