Trying to keep up with you

Flat run on the Jordan River trail.  Started around 8 am and by 9 am it was too HOT!  Lousy run!  Pace 8:11

Its still is too hot to enjoy my runs.  Need to start running before work!

More miles than I should do at marathon pace but I had some pent up energy to burn since I didn't get a run in yesterday.  As most the runners on the blog, I am constantly trying to juggle family, work, and running.  I've recently took a different position at work and its really eating into my running time.  Running is not as important as work but it is close.  I've passed up regional managerial positions to avoid the travel required, which would disrupt my running. So taking any new position at work that requires more hours (10+) just isn't worth the increase in pay.  I really need to think about quality of life issues that new position is taking from.

One mile warm up and then a relatively quick increase to a 7:06 pace for 4 miles. Not quite Threshold but certianly quicker than marathon pace.  Somewhere around a 10k pace.

Run up the canyon and over to Shriners.  Leisurely run.

Very flat energy wise.  Plugged through it and got it done. 

I'm trying to eliminate those things they may negatively effect my running.  I've had trouble falling asleep at night, which may be because of too much caffiene.  So I've cut out all the cafienated drinks (diet coke, coffee).  We'll see if it has an affect.
