AM - 5 Buena Vista Loop.  Finally got out of bed.  Ran into the Bull.  (Free 68.2)

afternoon - 9 PV.  Ran around the area of 2450 Park trying to get a course mapped out for the fundraiser race on Dec. 19.  The kids decided they want to host a race and put all the proceeds to a family in need from the area - pretty cool... good kids.  Then did 8xbarefoot striders, weights, and Molly's Mile.  (Triumph 348.3)(Barefoot '09 185.9)(Five Fingers 96.85)

AM - 5.5 Parkway.  Went out to run Warm Springs, but found that the Parkway was finished being paved, so I jumped on it.  It is a nice road, but I just wish it was still dirt.  Let the conquering of the desert continue... (Landreth 960.4)

evening - 11 Club.  Molly's Mile.  Club run up River Trail from DC.  Good to get out with the group again.  (Five Fingers 98.85)(Stratus grey 363.1)

afternoon - 15 Grass/GS/PL/Midd.  Ran 4 on the grass and 8xbarefoot striders.  Then up into the desert with a good group.  Legs were pretty trashed and made me worried for tomorrow.  Then finished with Molly's Mile.  Tried to lift, but something was burning in the weight room, so we evacuated the school and went home.  (Barefoot '09 190.9)(Five Fingers 99.85)(Landreth orange 516.2)

Ran this relay with Bill, James, Logan and Hayden.  Had sworn that I wouldn't do another relay, but this was pretty fun.  First leg was 7.3 down from Snow Canyon to the Bluff/Parkway corner.  A good drop, but since it was on the trail, it also had some tough climbs.  The hardest part were the killer drops though - so steep that it hurt my legs a lot.  Ran it pretty quick (went through 10K in about 33:30).  Cooled down a little and went on with the race.  The second leg was from the end of the Industrial Park down the new road to the Southern Corridor Freeway and along it to Sun River.  Ended up being just over 6 miles.  I didn't think things were going to work out as I warmed up.  My hip had tightened up so bad that I could barely walk.  But it slowly warmed up and allowed me to run, but it was a struggle.  Things were pretty much around 6 minute pace the whole way (give or take a little).  We easily won as a team and it was a good time.  (Cumulus gold 463.5)(Ohana 204.85)

Saw some improvements in the hip and some set backs this week.  I'll just keep working on it and try to keep it getting better.

Goals for next week:  Get up a few days/sleep a few days.  Keep mileage moderate.  Train hard a little and see how it feels.
