"Engaging in a little suffering — however self-imposed, arbitrary and contrived — before breakfast each morning tends to demand some humility and injects some marked relief into the rest of the day, making things sharper, more inspired, more immediately aware of the powerful presence of being. And that seems really worthwhile." A. Krupicka
"I cruised down hills, churned up hills, and floated over the asphalt, existing in a world that seemed to lack the confinements of such ubiquitous rivets as time, obligation, or pain. I knew then that this was destined to be one of those serendipitous runs for which so many of
us strive yet so rarely achieve." J. Nevels

| | Easy 8 on the LPT. Mostly cloudy, post rain, low 60's. Still in a low ebb mode.

| | Early lunch run. Bluff trail. 68 degrees, sunny. Easy eight. In fact, that might as well be my nickname this week, "Easy Eight". |

Early lunch run. Sunny, 73 degrees. Another eighter. Today I ran from the shop (this is literally only the second time I've done this because of the traffic and concrete), took a two mile route to the high school track and ran a few there. I ran miles 4 and 6 faster than the others. Mile splits: 8:35, 8:38, 8:38, 7:13, 8:43, 7:27, 9:20, 8:49 1:07:22/8:25 My right achilles has been whispering at me the last couple of weeks. It comes and goes. I'm icing, stretching, and running on it. Just saying. Any advice?

| | EZ 8 for lunch on a cloudy day. Periods of light rain. Very nice. Achilles feels fine, but if I had to run that easy every time I would lose my mind, or at least get an ipod to listen to. |

| | Late lunch. Rain for most of the run, then sun the last 3 or 4 miles. 60 degrees. The easy eight's are really paying dividends. I felt energetic throughout the whole run today. It's been a couple of weeks. Achilles felt much better today. It's still a little tight. I've been icing it a lot and that seems to really help. Easy 8 tomorrow, rest Saturday, then hopefully long and pain free on Sunday.

| | Eeee zeee 8, one mile grassy loops at Ellison park in Layton. 6x30 sec. striders barefoot in the grass at the end. This was the first time I've run barefoot. About a half mile total. I found that running very fast was easier than running very slow while barefoot. When I ran slow, my heel would feel it more on the landing. When I ran faster I would land more mid-foot and that felt more natural and smooth.
