Today was one of those days that you read about in books. The temps were perfect and it was overcast for the entire day. The temperature never got over 85 degrees for the entire day and it rained on and off. I ran with the team this morning off of the Bloomington Loop. We did a fun trail run and then had breakfast after wards. It was a lot of fun. Great way to start the day. 

I got a few things done around the house and then pushed Norah in the jogging stroller for 8 miles around Ivins and then over to my parent's house. I hopped in the pool after and it felt great. Nice start to the week.

Warmed up this morning with Clyde and Bill for 3 miles. Clyde and I were not feeling that frisky this morning so I will call it a progression run. I hit 6:19, 6:05, 5:42, 5:32, 5:29, and 5:25. Solid last couple splits. Cooled down back to Clyde's house. Really muggy this morning. 

I am just trying to get some decent workouts in so I can pace Steve to a 2:36 this year at St. George. I plan on doing another trail race this fall but I just don't know which one yet. If anyone wants to join us for the 2:36 marathon pace group, see you at the start.

3 miles in the morning with the team.

Big workout with the team this afternoon. We did close to 7 miles and did repeats on the track. The Varsity boys looked really strong. Got a massage from April this evening and boy are my calves tight!

10 mile run this morning with Clyde. We were both dragging but lived to tell about it.

2.10 mile run in Provo with the team. We went and did grass loops under the lights where they were playing Ultimate Frisbee. We were going to do more but the bus got us up there a little later than originally planned.

I was not feeling good when I woke up this morning. I was not 100% so I decided to take a day off. My body was very tired and I needed it.
