Married with three boys. Ran the Odgen Marathon in honor of my mother, a marathoner, who passed away from cancer and it just had continued from there. Grew up in a running family and have fallen in love with running, especially on trails.

Went out this morining before work all by my lonesome.  I tried to bundle up more so I wasn't freezing.  Went from the house out towards the ranches.  It felt pretty good, my legs are feeling good.  AP 8:25

Evening: great workout. First break into cold sweats to release unnecessary toxins, next have an excellent ab workout consisting of uncontrollable cold chills, next release more toxins through elevating your body temperature to above it's normal state.  Release more body toxins, then enjoy the rest of the afternoon, night laying in bed to recduce unnecessary stress.  UGGGH ....I guess I will be forced to take it easy the next few days, hopefully it is short lived.

After coming down sick Monday night, I haven't been able to run since then.  I was worried I would still be a down on the energy for today's run, but I guess a week of no running was a good taper and today I was feeling good.

Went to the JRP in Lehi, started at the iron brigde and Chet and I headed south.  Looking back at our logs from last year, we did the same run this week last year, so we wanted to do it again to see how we felt compaired to last year.  Last year AP 8:06, today's run 7:51.  Felt actually really good during the run, must have been the goo I took at mile 5.  Pace felt good, and my form felt good, probably could have maintained that pace for a quite a while longer.  Last year I was pushing it to the end.  I am excited for a great year of running and racing.

We waited until 8:30 to run today and the sun was out and it wasn't too cold, plus the roads are nice and ice free.  I wonder how long this is going to last.
