6 miles in the morning around Santa Clara.  The legs were a little sore from Saturdays run but it felt good to get out.  It was cooler temps and I ended up wearing a long sleeve shirt.  The legs loosened up a little bit.

Another 6 miles this afternoon around Ivins.  It was blue skies and about 70 degrees.  You cant ask for better weather.  I just relaxed on both of these runs today.  Nice start to the week.

Met up and ran with Clyde this morning.  We started at his house and did our usual loop over by the Dixie Center.  It was cooler this morning which made for a decent run.  Didnt worry about pace but just enjoyed the conversation and each other.  Another memorable day.

I ran this afternoon in the hot, windy weather.  I had to push the pace because I had to get over to Desert Hills graduation ceremony.  I accidentally fell asleep this afternoon and woke up in just enough time to run 12 miles along the Snow Canyon Parkway.  I felt really relaxed and didnt overdo it.  Got through this one.

I barely made it through graduation.  I was sitting on the stage where the camera had me just over the right shoulder of the speaker.  I wasnt able to take a nap because everyone in the entire arena would have seen me sleeping.  I survived and now I get to go to my sisters graduation tomorrow.  Two in two days.

Ran again with Clyde this morning on our usual loop.  We were beating the 7 minute guy and Clyde kept pushing the pace.  What a nice guy!  It was warm so I was sweating quite a bit.  I guess I sweat whether it is hot or cold.  Oh well!  I am sure Clyde wasnt very happy with all of the perspiration.  Only run today due to all of the family in town and going to my sisters graduation.

I ran 10 miles this morning up into Kayenta.  I slept in since it is the first day of the summer for me.  Katey told me it was going to rain so I was preparing for that when I started on my run and it was beautiful, blue skies.  Very relaxing this morning due to the extra sleep and then just enjoying the scenery.

Ran another 4 miles this afternoon over to my parents house.  It was really hot so I immediately hopped in the pool once I arrived.  It was very relaxing.  Ready for the big run tomorrow.

Nice 20 mile run out by Little Black Mtn. this morning with Dave, Clyde, James, and Steve.  We kept it nice and easy for the first lap (1:20) and then just naturally picked it up a little during the second.  Steve took off with around 5 miles to go and I slowed down to run with Dave and Clyde.  They said, "Go little Indian!" so I decided to take off and catch Steve.  I felt great finishing the run and was happy to get a good push to finish out the week.  The legs are finally starting to get some life back in them.  The temps were great but of course I was sweating a ton so the guys were worried about that.

Nice, solid week for me.  I feel like I am ready for some good speed workouts now and get officially back on track.  It was fun running with the guys again this morning.
