Worked out in the gym this morning. Ran 20 min of the stair master then 20 min of the elliptical. My knee was bothering me enough this morning that I didn't want to aggravate it again. Lunchtime Run: Ran 4 miles nice and easy. Knee felt a lot better than this morning. That is encouraging. |

| Got up this morning and ran in to work. It was a nice morning and it felt good. Ran with the intention of taking it easy. Got to the last couple miles and found myself picking it up a bit. Felt nice. So last 2 miles were MP miles. Legs feel good, knee felt OK. |

| Nice easy run this morning in Washington. Had my brother riding his bike along with me for some conversation. It was a beautiful morning. The trail was flat and would go on forever. I will be running that tomorrow morning for some serious MP miles. |

| This was a big test for me. I am not sure what is easier running on a flat ground with slight up his for the whole time and at sea level, or run on a course that has lots of downhill, but a couple of tough uphills at my normal training level. Either way I did the MP miles and then I had a tough recovery run. I had to walk and then run and then walk and then run for the last 4 miles. I don't think it helped that I didn't eat anything before the run and didn't take anything while the run except for water. Not a good idea. I am happy that I did this and that I was able to not feel my knee. |

| Ok, so this was an easy run with a few miles of hills to make a speed workout. It was pouring down rain and windy. I loved it. Did 3 increments of hills with a short break in between each one. The run felt great. |

| Ran at lunch today with a couple of guys that are getting back in to running. It was a nice loose run. Just wanted to get out and stretch the legs a bit. |

| Got up to run this morning and started out nice and easy. My knee was hurting a bit but I gave it a mile to hopefully loosen up. That didn't happen. So I turned around and went back home. Tonight I will try again, if it is still hurting I will hit the gym to keep up the exercise. |

| Did MTC miles last night. It has been a long time since I have done these. Took it real easy on the way there. Then did 3 loops. 5:09, 5:19, 5:29. On the way back and during the loops started experiencing some stomach problems. Was glad to make it back. All-in-all it was a good workout. |

| I love running trails. Ran with Nate Tullett this morning and had a great run. Great conversation and a great trail to run. Ran the 051 loop and got some good hill work. |

| So I did a UVM training run. The first half I took it fairly easy till I got to the highway and the hills. I wanted to run those as though I were running the marathon. I did pretty well and felt good. The wind was in my face and just as I was finishing the rain started to come down pretty hard. Next week I want to do the last part of the run and see how that feels. It was a good run and I felt good. |

| Got up this morning with a bit of a struggle. I was trying to think of any reason I could stay in bed. I'm glad I didn't listen to my lazy side. I was planning a nice casual run today but as I started out and made my way to the hill I was feeling pretty good. I got to the top and felt even better, so I decided to push it this morning, with the thought of it I get tired or feel anything bothering I would slow it down. Nothing happened and I kept going. I slowed a little towards the end but felt good. I then threw in some strides on the cold grass at the end. It was a great run. |

| Ran with Caleb Scoville tonight and we did the double bonneville. The first 2 miles were a good warmup and then the next 3 miles were at marathon effort. 6:21, and 6:41 then we started the climb and I tried to keep the pace. Wasn't able to keep the pace but I kept the effort. Managed to squeak a 9:11. Got to the top of the climb and caught my breath and continued on. Took it easy for the next mile then did 2 more at Marathon effort. Kept those under 7 min with the gradual uphill. Took things easy the rest of the way in. Very happy with the run and the outcome. Felt good at the end of the run. Trail running is speed training in disguise. I love it. |

| Decided to run the trails again today. Jumped on BST at the top of slate canyon and headed to Springville. Hadn't been on this trail and finally after about 2.5 miles I found some good single track. It was a good run. Nice and cool this morning making for a nice run. |

| Ran MTC miles today. 3.35 out at a nice easy pace. Then ran 3 MTC's in the rain. Wanted to take it easy but not be a slacker so pushed it a bit. 5:27, 5:17, 5:21. Felt good knowing I wasn't pushing extremely hard but still had good times. Then ran the same route back to the store. It was a good run. |
