Relentless

AM - 13.75 Twix/Pioneer. Good running today. Enjoyed the run and the weather. I like this route and it just get better each time. Abs and rolled. (Peg black 424.75)

AM - 5 Twix. Around with the dog this morning. Then some weights, abs, and rolled. (Pace blue 175.25)

afternoon - 8 GS. A bit tired, but enjoyed the run. A new development that took land from the desert reserve is called The Reeves at Green Springs. It is a bit of sacrilege to me to call it after the Reserve when you just destroyed it to make your houses and money. (Peg green 154.5)

AM - 7.25 Twix/AC.  A little chilly out this morning.  A nice run.  Abs and core.  (Boston 170.5)

afternoon - 5.5 DI.  Warmed with the team and then ran a bit during the workout - mostly with the girls on short occasions to help encourage and motivate in a way that only a coach can.  Then cooled with them.  (Cumulus 355)

AM - Walk with the dog and abs.  Had to skip out on weights to get things done for the banquet tonight, but did get my rolling in.

afternoon - 7.5 Foremaster.  Not a lively effort from me today, but I just kinda cruised in the back and made it through.  Just a bit worn down.  There was an enormous dead squirrel on the way up Foremaster.  Very impressive.  (Peg green 162)

AM - 5.5 Twix/AC.  Abs then run.  Nice shorter run with Twix and then a good solid morning pace with the boys.  Great sesh of yoga after.  The pain I was having in my left hip on the weird cross over your leg thing while you lay down was much less today... good.  (Peg blue 550.5)

On a separate note... DIII commentator, I would really like to talk to you.  Please send me a message.

afternoon - 10 Turkey Farm. On what is become a traditional team run/workout, we killed another turkey workout. Hit about 5 min negative split. I was barely holding on at the end and the guys just kept pouring it on - had to tell them to chill out. (Peg green 172)

morning - 6 Panorama. Ran with Twix around the hs/ms area while Ry was celloing it up. Still had some fast pace in the legs from yesterday. (Cumulus 361)  Hit up 5k of rowing and 20 mins of bikin while waiting for Laney’s volleyball game  

afternoon - 15 Hop Valley. Went out to Zion to run this trail I’ve always wanted to do. It was brutally beautiful. Didn’t help that I got off the trail and ended up ledging myself high above the trail. Luckily made it down after some serious bushwhacking - manzanita and scrub oak are not kind to human flesh. Finally made it off the cliff and got to enjoy possibly the most beautiful place I have ever been. The lighting was absolutely perfect off the red sandstone. On the way back, I was spent. 15 miles in the sand and 3+ hours of slow running will do that to you, but I am very glad I did it. (Sense 334.75)

A lot of miles for the old guy this week. But life is good. 

Goals for this week: the greatest thing would be a Nike birth, but any great run from the kids will be satisfying.
