Boy oh Boy a lonely 20 miler.  Need some motivation.   Just had to put one foot in front of the other.  Just feeling old in running years.  Wondering if running is what I want to do these days?  Maybe try something new physically after st george.  I think I would feel better about running if my right achilles wasn't flaring along with the same nagging butt pain.  Everything else GREAT!!! Because I am older and wiser I just don't go fast enough to bug either problem much at all which is making me slower overall.  Ran AF half in reverse after running to finish line and then TIMP half in reverse from AF half mile 9.5. Ran that to mile 7.5....so golf course almost to mouth of canyon.  Two gus.  Need to get rid of them.  Strawberry banana. Want to delve into something more natural.  Stopped only twice for three minutes each to survive the length of this solo run.  AP 8:06.

long and busy nursery shift.  just didn't want to run.  wanted to rest.  Troy had a cheeseburger waiting for me too.  Was good at first then I wanted to gag.  Wish I had run instead.  It was my second cheeseburger of the day.  He was so nice to think of me but darn it I had already treated myself at the American Fork Hospital snack bar. The best cheeseburgers.  : D.
