Run one of those rediculously aided Utah half-marathons helter skelter down a canyon and get a PR.

Personal:

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 with Blake and Terry for a run around Liberty Park for lunch. As soon as we started I felt my left foot hurting again. No bueno. I took it easy and stayed in the wood chips. About a mile into the run the pain leg up some. I am guessing my plantar fasciatis is back. First 1.5 13:10 Second 1.5 11:57. I threw in 3 30 second pick ups during the last lap to see how it felt. Didn't hurt any worse. Hopefully I can rehab it back into health.

Went to the gym and ran on the treadmill. I wanted to run a 5 mile tempo run. I started with a warm up mile @ 8:42 then started the temp run, 1st mile 7:03, 2nd 6:58, 3rd 7:03, fourth 6:58. I was feeling out of synch and did not want to aggavate anything, so I decided to end the tempo run at four. On a positive note my foot felt good the whole time, I wanted to do a cool down mile, but after a lap bumped it back up to 6:20 for a lap ,then another lap at cool down pace, then one more lap a 6:00 pace, then finished with a half mile at cool down pace 8:42.

Overall a pretty good run, then joined up with the family and spend some time swimming in the pool.

Ran from the house towards Eagle Mountain with Chet. It was 12 degrees when we started. It was the coldest I have been in a while. I am still defrosting. We left early so we could spend the rest of the day with our families. Nice run, 8:23 AP. Just kept it relaxed, now hopefully I can eat without guilt tonight/ tomorrow. I have been working hard to get my weight back down, almost back into the 150s.

Merry Christmas to all....
