Personal:

I've been running since I was nine.  I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me.  We have two children:  Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.)  I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.

AM:  I woke up with very sore calves and very tired legs this morning.  The track beat me up a little bit.  I have 10 miles today, so I decided to divide it in to two shorter runs.  I ran 6 this morning, down 4800S, and on to the River Trail, I got off at Millrace Park, and ran up through the Taylorsville High driving range (during driver's ed!)  and back home.  Two weeks from today I leave for Seattle.  I am very excited to go! 

 PM:  Four mile death march before dinner.  Why is it that sometimes the short runs feel the longest?  I started feeling better in the last half mile.  I guess it takes me a few miles to get warmed up.  My hip felt pretty good, my right achilles, not so much.  Sigh!  It's always something.
