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 ran 6 miles this morning in 43:22. This was my first run after the marathon. I am surprised at how quickly I have been able to recover after this marathon in comparison to the last 2. I am still sore, but it is not too bad. I will probably do no more than 6 for the rest of this week just to be safe.
I thought it would be kind of fun to post this picture that the ksl camera guy took of my 5th place check from the marathon on Saturday. | |

| I ran 6 miles with Ted, Daniel, and Sasha this morning. We finished in 45:11, after which Sasha and Daniel ran a few more miles. I am still just a little sore post marathon, but I am feeling much better at this point than I did after my first two marathons. Mainly now, my quads feel tight when I crouch down. |

| 6 miles in 44:44. I felt tired this morning even though I got to bed fairly quickly after I got home. Maybe I am just adjusting to the earlier wake up time. I am also still recovering from the marathon, so I shouldn't be too surprised. |

| I ran 6 miles in 43:38, running the last mile in approximately 6:40. I felt good, but there is still some tightness in my quads. I don't know how some people can run races at close to 100% just a few days after finishing a marathon. I feel much better after this marathon than after past marathons, and I feel like I am in no condition to race competitively. I guess that I just need to increase my resistance to the pounding, which means that I need to up my mileage some more. |

| I ran 6 miles this morning in 44:22. It was a good run, and I am feeling strong. Still a little bit of tightness in the quads, but I almost don't even notice it now. I mainly only notice it when I kneel down. After the run I hopped on my bike and acted as an aid to Sasha while he was doing his long run. I carried a water bottle for him, and gave it to him every two miles during the second half of his workout, plus a couple of extra times near the end. Sasha ended up running the last 10.1 miles in 58:44. I will count my biking as 4 running miles for today.
