| JAJAAF run around Millcreek and Sugar House. It's been quite awhile since I attended this run and even longer since we have seen ACorn. As Andrea and Jake have mentioned, there is a Jeremy Ranch run starting at 7:30 on Saturday. Come one, come all. |

Doesn't this look fun? T-minus 2 hours until game time. Oh boy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gd1wswcJeeA I got destroyed by the treadmill. The incline last year was 10% and the winner (Max King) went about 2.15 miles in the 15 minutes. This year the incline was raised to 15% but stupidly I went out at about the same pace as Max. I basically blew up in the first half mile and ended up only running 1.4 miles. It didn't help that I was in the first group to grow so I had no barometer for what pace to run. I suspect Seth will do much better but Max King will probably win again. At least I get to add my first VO2 Max miles for the year. Miserable to say the least.

| Ran with Scott, Justin, Jake, Andrea, Annie, Devra and Dan up at Jeremy Ranch. I ended up going longer than I expected and felt relatively good. There was tots of motivating "next race" and Olympics chatter. I am looking forward to watching the men's 10k which means I need to get the lawn done asap. |

| Out and back dirt road run in Montana at about 6,800 ft. This road is dangerous because it is 18 miles to the freeway but at some point on every run I have to decide when enough is enough and turn around. |

| 10 miles out sounded like a nice round number but probably one mile too far. averaged 7 mins ~1500 ft of rolling hills. |

| Run in the hills and then swam across the lake for the 14th year in a row. I didn't have my zoomer flippers so I resorted to the breaststroke. I am in terrible swimming shape. |

| hobbled my way to the gym, ran 4 miles on the treadmill, a few on the stairmaster then back home. The hamstring still has major issues but at least it isn't getting worse. Wore the Altra Instinct for the first time on the road. They don't feel much different than the Kinvaras. |

| Hip therapy/strengthening day. Road up Millcreek Canyon as fast as I could and completed the round trip from 13th east in about 1:40. Sufficiently wore out my hip. |

| Road up to Big Mountain. Stretched out the return trip to get to 50 miles and 3,800 ft. of elevation gain. I wore my HR monitor just for fun and it average 135 for the ride (155 for the climbing section) For the route "Emigration (Little and Big Mountain Summits)" on Strava I posted the 57th best time (1:05) out of 1,850 rides by 711 people. On a really good day without any headwind I think I could do it under an hour which would put me in the top 15 I think. This Strava thing is kind of cool. |

cross training again. Hamstring should be able to handle 10 miles of running by now. Interesting results from the Pikes Peak Marathon yesterday. Kilian finished first with a 3:40 and Max King was 3rd with a 3:50. Just more proof that Carpenter's CR of 3:16 is untouchable and apparently King is beatable by an ultra guy.

| I ventured out on the road today and it turned out to be a big mistake. After spending the last few days on the bike and cross training I thought the hamstring had improved but that wasn't the case. Started out really stiff, by mile 6 it started to loosen up but by mile 8 I almost had to resort to walking, which NEVER happens. |

Crosstraining again, Surprise, Lance was stripped of his Tour de France titles. As as result there has been a surge of donations to LIVESTRONG. Fantastic!

| Met a friend at Sunnyside Park and road up Little Cottonwood. My time for the LC Full Canyon Ride on Strava was much more competitive than last week's ride up Big Mountain. 4 mins to KOM which I think is doable. 61 miles in 3:47 with 5,900 ft. of climbing. |

| 106 minutes on the stairmaster. 613 floors in first hour then 400 in the next 45 minutes for total of about 1,000. The miles were very inflated so just based on effort I think 17 makes sense. Hamstring PT afterwards. |

| 5 miles on rowing machine then 5 on the stairmaster. I held up ok on the rowing which means my push up appointments at work must be paying off. |

8 miles on the treadmill. No joke. The hamstring was a bit creaky but held up ok. Today is sure to be a good day. PM: 1 mile on the treadmill then hamstring PT. Progress.

| Ventured onto to the road wearing running shoes for the first time in more than a week. After one mile I ran into Jake who I was running his most direct (only 7.5 miles) route to work. Ran with him to Sunnyside, looped back to SHP for a lap then back home. No serious damage done for the 2nd day in a row! I am not a big soccer fan but this shot by Messi is undeniably impressive. Go to 46 seconds into the video. The teams ended in a tie yet Real Madrid still won the Spanish Super Goal Cup championship because of an "away goals rule". Oh, that's why I don't like soccer. |
