Catch me if you can

I ran 5 easy miles starting from home.  I came home a did the P90X Stretch DVD for an hour.

5 easy miles on the sidewalks around work.  Some guy in a red car purposefully turned right in front of me two different times.  Then a few a minutes later I saw him drive by me again.  It felt like he was taunting me.  I have no problem stopping and letting cars turn in, but this guy was just a jerk.

After work I helped Taylor unload her car then I did upper body weights.  

My goal is to have ripped arms and run a 3:30 marathon in October.  I know I can do this.

I met the group at Bingham this morning.  Angela even came.  Cheryl was in charge.  We warmed up for a mile.  Then we did serveral 1/2 mile repeats with recovery through the neighborhoods including Rustic Roads.  We came back to the track and did a few 800's and a 400.  Then we cooled down.  I ran 7 miles with the group, then I got to work and ran another 3.  I've got a lot of work to do to get my speed back, but I know with consistancy it will come.  Average pace for the 10 miles 8:24.

I rode the bike and lifted weights at work.  I also walked 30 minutes at lunch.

I started at the trail head, but ran on the street.  I ran the first 3 miles as a warm up and then a 3 mile tempo.  I started the tempo on a steep hill, so the first mile was a little slower.  Once I got back to the trail, I did several one minute pick-ups.  I wanted to run 10 today, but stomach was feeling off from flax seed muffin in a mug I had for dinner the night before.  I won't be making that again.  I still have heartburn.  No fun.  My splits were 9:46, 8:37, 8:40, 8:22, 7:50, 7:36, 8:10, 8:31 and 7:42.  Average pace 8:22.

My legs felt like lead and my left knee was pretty sore when I woke up.  I kept the pace very slow, between a 9:30mm and 10:00mm.  It was perfect running weather.  

I met Angela at the trail on 12600 S.  We ran North for 8 miles then turned around and ran back.  It was pouring rain the whole time, but luckily it wasn't too cold.  The last couple of miles were tough.  Average pace 8:35.
