Personal:

I am married with 3 lovely children 28, 20, 14 and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue.  Love to run and be outside.  I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible.   Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

Met early at Melody's and ran north to pick up Becca and another girl, I didn't catch her name.  First miles was slow but after that stayed in the lower 8's.  Dropped everyone off at about 5 and finished up on my own with the pace being under 8's.  Felt really good

Took my dog up in the trails, everything is so green and pretty.  I was noticing how loosely my shoes where tied and thought maybe this is why I roll my ankle so much, so I tightened them around my ankles.  Hopefully that will help.

Started at Will's today and ran up the path.  Want to attempt to do 800, thought I would try 4 2 up and 2 down.  I did ok I guess.  Warm up 3.25 miles and took a 1-2 mins rest in between 800's.  Was hard to run fast, hopefully it will come back.

Met with Luz with my dog and ran on the path.  Nice morning, her dogs didn't come because one of them had a thorn in her paw.  Saw Matt on the trail, he turned and ran with for a mile or so.   Was tired at first and my right foot was sore, probably from rolling on the ball yesterday but felt good once I got going.

Met a friend at the pool, she is a really good swimmer and gave me some really good tips.  A lot of times lap swimming makes my SI joints hurt but her tips helped a lot.   She went to the OT in swimming in 2001, she is awesome.  Swam several laps and pool ran for 30 mins.

First race I have done since SG marathon last year.  It was awesome,  really I was sucking air but I am fine with that.  I think I did just fine for the shape I am in, I was hoping to do flat 7's but ran out of juice on the uphill section.  I will post more later.  

So I warmed up on my own a little and then saw Jamie and we warmed up some for a 2.5 mile warmup.   Then the race I felt really good the first 3 and then kind of lost it in my legs, but all in all I was happy.

1-6:35 Wow I can run that fast still!

2-6:57  Another sub-7 shocking.

3-7:16  Oh ya I am not in that great of shape and can feel the up hill.

4-7:31 Opps focus Josse

5-7:09  Ok a little better

Then I ran some with Jamie, then saw JulieC and Melanie and ran with them for a couple of miles.  And some running on my own  and the last 2.5 with Luz and blurry vision.  Through this whole run I keep thinking to my self, I think I have started and sure enough I did.  Glad I was wearing black.
