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. |

| Day of rest, so no running. I helped with fast offerings in the morning and then went to church in the afternoon. Testimony meeting was nice, as there was this old, old man who got up and bore the sweetest testimony about the love he has for his wife. It was a reminder to me of the love that I need to show my wife on a daily basis. | | Add Comment |

| I ran alone today. I left from my house and ran out and back five miles down State street and on the Provo river trail. My stomach was freaking out the entire time I was running and I had to take 2 vpb's in the middle of the run, and I almost had to take a third. Anyhow, I finished my run in 1:17:02 for 10 miles.

| I ran this morning with Mary Ann, Sasha, and Daniel on our route that has become somewhat standard lately, out to the 7 mile turn-around, and back to the uneventful half turn-around before finishing at Sasha's. We threw in a few sprints in the middle of the run. I did not push them too hard at all. We also ran into Tommy Gruenewald (not sure if it is spelled right or not) from the BYU track team and ran with him for a bit. We ended up finishing up 10 miles in 1:14:30. PM: I ran 4 miles on my own. The first two miles were a little faster than they should have been, in part because I was running downhill. I turned around at 14:55 for 2 miles, and then purposefully slowed down some the last 2 miles, which was made easier by the fact that I was running uphill on the way back. Total time 31:15 for 4 miles.

I ran with Sasha at 5:15AM this morning. It has been a while since I have gotten up that early to run. Anyhow, we ran pretty slowly and talked the entire time about computer stuff. Finished up 10.1 miles in 1:22:09. PM: I ran 4 miles this afternoon on my own, finishing in 31:11. I am still not used to running doubles, so I am pretty tired from running doubles the last 2 days. I also have been going out with Kimia and running a mile with her every afternoon. Her best so far is 12:14 for 1 mile. |

| Everything was pretty normal this morning. We met at the same time as normal with the same group and ran the same basic route. Total time was 1:18:39 for 10 miles. |

I ran with the same group as always, plus Matt. We ran out to the 3.5 mile mark and turned around coming back to the turn-around for the uneventful half and then heading back to Sasha's house to finish 10 miles in 1:17:02. We also threw in some sprints here and there just like we have been consistently doing for the past few weeks. PM: 4 more miles alone in 32:41. My left calf is feeling kind of tight so I made sure to keep the pace really easy, especially the second half. |

| My calf has been bugging me since yesterday, near where the muscle ends and the achillies tendon begins. So, I just took it easy today, and I only ran 18 miles instead of 20. I also helped set up the course for Mary Ann's race. I ran the first couple miles with Daniel, and the first 10.1 with Sasha. I then finished it off alone. Total time was 2:24:33 for 18.1 miles.
