| Location: Salt Lake City,UT,USA Member Since: May 06, 2006 Gender: Male Goal Type: Local Elite Running Accomplishments: Won Park City Marathon (tiny field, slow course, no purse) and Utah Grand Slam in 2006
Marathon: 2:37:04 (St. George 2009) Short-Term Running Goals: Train for as solid a race in Boston 2011 as my schedule will allow. Accept the fact that there isn't room in my life to train for a breakthrough performance and do the best I can under the circumstances.
Long-Term Running Goals: Lose the all-or-nothing mentality and
start using running as an outlet instead of an additional source of
stress. Personal: I'm married with 4 kids (2 boys, 2 girls) and live in Salt Lake City, where I work as a real estate attorney.
Let me have men about me that are fat,
Sleek-headed men and such as sleep a-nights.
Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look,
He thinks too much; such men are dangerous.

| In anticipation of beginning my Boston training next week, I thought it might make sense to actually drag myself out of bed and get a few miles in this morning. Based on the fact that the run felt awful from about mile 2 on, the respiratory infection seems to have sucked the life out of me. My legs felt like they weighed about 100 lbs each and the 4 miles felt like 20. At least I have plenty of room for improvement as I move into my training regimen. On a more positive note, I haven't felt any arch pain over the past two runs. I realize that they were very short and easy runs, though, and that I need to keep an eye on things as I start putting some miles in.

| After yesterday's death march, I had a hard time dragging myself out of bed this morning. Fortunately, it felt much, much better. I still found myself coughing for an hour or so following the run, but I didn't feel the heaviness in the legs or the overall fatigue that made yesterday's outing so unpleasant. I'll try upping the mileage a little tomorrow to see if I can handle it. At the tail end of the run, I bumped into Taylor Scalley and his friend Doug and we made tentative plans for a trail run on Saturday. Sounds fun!

| Another rough week in terms of mileage. Here's hoping the commencement of my Boston regimen on Monday will help me get out more next week. |

| Headed across U campus, up to 11th Ave, over to fire station, back up past Popperton to Shoreline, then through U housing (detoured from Shoreline due to oil spill cleanup at Red Butte) and home. Gorgeous day for a run. Maja did well today. |
