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 Marie early at her house and we head to the trails,  I brought Brune with us.  We did the stairway which is what I usually do but I usually drive up the paved hill leading up to the trailhead.  We ran it because we started from her house.  This made it for 2 miles of steep uphill.   Good run legs a little dead after the up but was able to cruise on the down.  Added on another mile when I got home to make it 7.

Got up and met Luz for a run with the dogs.  Perfect morning to run, felt decent.  Afterward we got in the FREEZING COLD river.  It hurt so bad but made my achey legs feel great.  Fun!!

8:40 avg. pace.

Later did 16 mins on the elliptical.

So I have this nagging want to run the Utah Valley marathon, I tell myself everyday no your body is not ready.  And then I tell myself you can just run it for fun, you know how I did it last year.  I have that sickness marathonitis.  Really it is real, so I thought I would try for a 20 miler and see how my body handles that and then decide.  I know I am crazy.  I go through this daily in my head.

So I am left with mixed feeling after today's run.  It was hard but all in all I did ok, but was super tired at the end.  Legs just felt tired form the begining.  I was wondering if I was going to make 15, but after about 7 they started feeling ok, but shoulders where all crampy and tired the whole run.  So I met McKenzie at Wills and we met Julie on the trail and ran up the canyon.  Julie decided we were to slow for her and took off,  I would have to if I were in shape.  So it was me and Mac, we saw Paul and I called him Tom opps, sorry.  Then when we started up South Fork Mac pulled away from me.  She also kick my behind on the way down.  I think I stayed with her until about Canyon Glen I just couldn't hold her sub-7 pace.  but  I did manage to stay under 8's from 12 on, with 3 being pretty good.  Miles 13-7:08, 14-7:11, 15-7:25 and then I pooped out but not bad.   I stopped and got a drink with 3 left and saw Julie again, was happy to have someone to run with again.  Then she turned at the mouth of the canyon for home so last 2 on my own again.   I don't think I want to put myself through a marathon yet.  But I think this every saturday and then during the week I think well maybe I would do just fine.....I don't know.

Ice bath 

ok the shoe counter is doing something weird, it is counting my mileage as double.  I put it in and it counted it once but did not show up at the bottom so I put it in again and it showed up but counted it again, so I erased it and it is count it but not showing it in the box on the bottom so-Asics 1140-18.5
