I couldn't sleep so I went running at midnight.  The temps were nice but it was nice to get out and have the body moving.  I am done with soccer so I will be able to be more consistent.  We will see how things go.  I ran 12 miles around Ivins and then over into Santa Clara.  Lots of fun running really late.  Not a ton of traffic to deal with.

I did the same run as yesterday.  It felt nice running in a new pair of shoes.  Need to stay consistent and get out of this little running funk I am in.  The temps were really nice today.

Too much going on with graduation and finishing up a bunch of paperwork for the last day of school.  I did spend more time with Norah and Katey which was a plus.

Slept in this morning for the first day of summer and decided to go and hit the Barrel Roll trail over by Jacob Hamblin.  Absolutely beautiful day and I couldn't ask for better running conditions.  It was nice.

I think I might be converted to trail running.  Club run tonight which hasn't happened in a long while.  Hopefully everyone welcomes me back.

6 miles during the club run.  It was hot!  Nice to be around everyone again.

Went and ran/trudged along the first part of the marathon course with Clyde and Dave.  I knew I needed to get this run in but it made me realize I am out of shape.  I warmed up with them and then basically watched them run away into the wild blue yonder.  I kept everything sub-6:30 until Veyo and then my legs started to tighten up.  I made it to mile 11 and decided to let the meat wagon pick me up.  I will pay for this later.

I am up north visiting family and my allergies were really bad last night and I didn't sleep very well.  I woke up and decided to try and loosen up the old nasal passages.  It didn't work.  I could barely breath and decided to cut it short and survive.  I made it to 60 miles for the week so it is a start.  Need to stay consistent.
