Slowly Getting Faster

I wanted to get out yesterday but I didn't wake up in the morning and had no motivation in the afternoon.  I wish I was still living up at snowbird, it was easier to talk myself into getting out up there. 

I got in 5 on the TM this morning before work.  I had an early meeting or I would have gone for more. I think I will take it easy for the rest of this week then start to really train hard for St. George.  

Next week my training will shift from trail runs to road runs.  At least during the week. Time to get ready for St. George.  So, today and tomorrow, and possibly sunday, are "enjoy some trails" days before I make the shift.  I plan to still run farmington canyon road during the week when I'm not doing speed training, and some of my long runs on the weekend will probably be trail runs, but I've got to switch back to road if I'm going to be ready to beat last years time. hopefully, my higher baseline will help me in getting faster before race day. 

Not exactly a stellar running day. The plan was to get up early and get in 10-15. I caught some guilt from the wife because the kids were having some cousins sleep over and she wanted help. On top of that, the kids all stayed up all night and so I did too.

I went out tonight, first with my step daughter then by myself. 1.2 with Sydney 4.4 alone, on the street.
