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.

Church was good.  I really liked the high counciler's talk during sacrament meeting.

Funny run today.  I ran 4 miles with Sasha, then he stopped because he is feeling sick.  Then, the rest of us ran 1.05 around the block while waiting for Craig to show up (Mary Ann invited him to come).  Then we all ran 3 miles with Craig, after which Mary Ann and Daniel were finished, so I finished up the last 2 miles alone.  Total time for 10.05 miles 1:23:13.

I ran with Daniel this morning.  Sasha is sick, and I guess Mary Ann is in Salt Lake City, so it was just the two of us.  We ran 8 miles, and then I went out for 2 more on my own to finish up 10 miles in 1:18:16.

I ran with Sasha, Daniel, Mary Ann, and Chauncey this morning.  Chauncey was only doing 6 miles so we stayed with him and then went farther down the trail instead of heading back to Sasha's house.  Daniel turned around a mile later, and the rest of us ran the full 10.  It was really slow, because Sasha is still getting over being sick.  Total time of 1:25:55 for 10 miles.

PM:  I went out for 4 more miles on my own.  Finished in 30:51.

I ran with Adam and Mary Ann this morning.  We ran 10.1 miles in 1:11:38.  It was a little faster than normal, but I felt good.

I ran with Sasha, Mary Ann, and Matt this morning.  We ran 10.1 miles in 1:15:07.

PM:  I ran 4 miles alone in 30:16.  I felt a little tired, but otherwise pretty good.  I need to make sure and get to bed on time tonight.
