Personal:

Pine View High School class of 2008! (just graduated May 23). I became a runner my sophmore year when I started Cross Country and I have been running ever since. Ran XC and Track 3 straight years. I love road races and all that cool stuff. 

I'm going to serve an LDS mission in Tallahassee Florida, August 13, speaking spanish.

 

August 2010- Just got back! Mission was great. I ran a little, maybe a total of 25 miles the whole 2 years. haha.

We'll see when I hit the streets again.

Today I thought we were going to get a Christmas tree after school but plans changed so I ran from my house. I went down the street to the trails by the river and turned around after 2 miles. I wasn't feeling very good before the run, stressed out and stuff so I knew I really need to run. It really helped to get out and run. I know that I need to start training better for the 1/2 marathon in January. My orthotics didn't squeek today so that is good. My knees hurt at first but went away. I think they hurt after I don't run for a couple days. My shins hurt the whole time, I really need new shoes. It was good to get out and run, and the new trails are nice.

Yeah, the new trails were nice - it's definitely easier to run there when you don't have to dodge large mounds of dirt and construction equipment. How are your othotics - are they helping? How's your hip?

From Jeff on Wed, Dec 05, 2007 at 09:11:04

The orthotics are good, they fit and they will help. I don't know about my hip. Usually when I go farther it will start to hurt more. I probably need to do more weights to strenghten it. THanks for the concern.

Thanks for the welcome. Now that ive seen your picture i do remember seeing you at some of the races. Your one of those jerks that runs faster that I do. J/K. Keep up the pace.

Hey Jeff...if your orthotics are squeeking just put baby powder in the bottom of them and it stops the sqeek!! It worked for my mom it might work for you. And when they sqeek again just put more in. Let me know if it works. Good job on the run!!

James - I think you beat me at Butch Cassidy this year!

Sierra - Thanks for the advice. Yesterday was the only time that I have had squeeky orthodics, normaly they are fine. thanks
