We got back from Phoenix late last night and I was not really tired this morning. I then had my graduate school class all evening. Plus, it was still raining when I finished. I decided to get some homework done and then enjoy time with the family. This gives me the opportunity to try something I've wanted to do. I am going to try and hit 90+ miles on only 5 days of running. We will see how it goes. Busy with lots of stuff this week.

10 miles this morning in the fog out along Snow Canyon Parkway. The trail was quite slippery so the pace was nothing fancy. Actually warmer than most other mornings.

13 miles this afternoon from the high school, out to George Washington Academy, looped around Stone Cliff, hit the DC trail, and then came back around Webb Hill. Descriptive! Nice afternoon considering the weather this morning. 6:45/mile.

10.20 miles with the guys this morning. Nice and easy. Happy to get it in.

4 easy miles this afternoon before my graduate school class. Dustin E. is in the class so it should be fun.

I planned to get out this morning but Norah was up all night with a cough and I was way tired this morning and didn't feel very good myself. 

I ran the same route from Tuesday afternoon. Nice 13 miler except for the fact I had a slight head cold and hacked up a bunch of stuff. No watch. I hope I am not sick. I will need to get creative if I am going to run 90 miles this week.

Nice long run this morning from Ridin' Dirty, UT along Snow Canyon Parkway all the way to the finish line of the marathon. We kept it nice and slow which helped me get through the run this morning. I am not feeling well so I knew I was in for a long haul. I actually felt okay during the run and had a pretty fast last mile but then started to get sick right after I finished. Head cold and sinus problems for the rest of the day. Not fun. Didn't get my 90 miles for the week but oh well. I need to get better. I cannot remember the last time I was sick.

Hopefully next week can be better.
