Sub 2:19:00 marathon Personal: I used to run competitively, and maybe I will do so again someday. Right now I am primarily running to try and get in better shape, and to maintain both physical and emotional health, but also for the simple joy that comes when I run.
I am also the proud daddy of five little ones. I love the opportunity that I have to be a daddy, and my challenge is to balance my family responsibilities with work and running. |

| I only ran 10 miles today, but I threw in 8x17sec. (time is average) with 4 min. rest between surges. The terrain varied from uphill to downhill and from a tailwind to a headwind, with everything else in between as well. I felt strong during the surges. Total time of about 1:15:00. |

| I ran 12 miles alone. Total time of 1:30:42. Before I went running I ran a mile with Kimia in 13:00 (time minus tying Kimia's shoe about 12:50). After we got back Kimia said that she wanted to run another mile, so after she rested for about 4-5 minutes we ran another mile in 14:03. |

I ran around the golf course again, except this time I ran through all of the parts that runners are not supposed to go through. Nobody was on the golf course so I figured that it was ok and I only hit the trails that run right next to the holes, not on the holes themselves. Anyhow, that golf course could make for a killer race, either paved or non-paved. I ran around the golf course for about 48 minutes with only minimal repeat running on the trails. I finished up running a total of 11 miles in 1:18:55.
I also ran about 2 miles with Kimia in 26:37 (I think it was a little short, but not by a lot). It was the first time that Kimia has ever ran that far without stopping |

| I ran 12 miles today. I ran most of it easy, however I used some marks on the road and timed .75 miles in 3:51 (5:08 pace). Total time for the run was about 1:30:00. |

| I ran 11 miles alone today, in my first run back in Provo. The run was rather odd for the first while, as I was running at or near 7:00 pace, and it felt like 7:30 or 7:40 pace. Even the sections with a little bit of snow weren't really slowing me down. At 5 miles I was at 35:17, and I decided to speed up and catch the 7:00 guy. I ran the next half mile in 3:04 to make it to the half-way mark in 38:21. After this I decided to slow down, however I had some trouble actually doing it for the first couple miles. After turning around I hit miles from 7:14-7:28 over the next 4 miles before finally slowing down a bit more heading up the hill to home to finish in 1:19:25.

| Todays run was the longest run I have ever completed based on time. It was even longer than both of the marathons that I ran, although the distance was shorter. We started off with a whole crew of people, as Daniel, James, Sasha, Mary Ann, and Angela Wagner (BYU runner) all showed up to run. After a warm-up of about 2.75 we started a 5k tempo pacing the women. Daniel and James headed for home. We ran the tempo with them, hitting the first 2.5 miles at about 6:00 pace on the snow and ice, and then running back and finishing with Mary Ann at a slightly slower pace. After this we ran back to Sasha's house and dropped off Mary Ann and Angela. On the way back I slipped in one of the tunnels and landed on my hip pretty hard. It is still a little sore. After returning to Sasha's house, we ran back out and did about 11.5 miles more to finish 20+ miles in 2:43:24.
