| On the TM at the aquatic center while watching ESPN. This was a weird run. First, I ate too much before the run started. Normally when I run in the afternoon or evening I eat nothing for about 4 hours and then have a clif bar and some water 30 minutes before I start. Tonight the Clif bar tasted so good I decided to have another. Not good. My gut felt so bloated and heavy during the early part of the run that I even had thoughts of quitting. After running for a long long time I looked down at the time and had only been going for 20 minutes. Right then I decided that I needed to do something new and interesting to keep my mind busy. I decided to make it a hilly run. I started at 0% incline and increased the incline by 1% for 2 minutes with a 3 minute flat recovery. So the incline went from 1% to 10% in incerments of five minutes (2 minutes on the incline and 3 recovery). It was just what I needed to shake things up and give my mind a chance to do something other than complain about how bloated I felt. I got my entire 8 miles in and felt pretty good at the end. I know what I need. I need less TM time and to get out on the roads more so I can have some variety.

Intervals on the TM at the Aqt center. Preset program: Fast at 6.2 and 1% with Recovery at 5.2 and flat. Didn't feel overly strenuous during the run but my left foot is a little sore today (Thursday).
Also lifted weights: Bench, incline bench, curls, tricep push down and crunches.
I decided today that I don't want to be "a runner." I think it would be better for me to be a highly fit person who enjoys running for the cardio component of my fitness. It is finally starting to dawn on me that true fitness has 3 parts: Strength, cardio and nutrition. I have always felt best when all three are in place. Any one or two of them is just not enough for me. I'm finally (over the past few weeks) starting to get all three back in place and I feel REALLY good! |

| Did my long run in the morning. It was hard on me! It was a very hilly run and the wind was nasty. I swear it was in my face the entire time both out and back. Not sure how that works but it sure seemed that way. Don't know how many mph it was but it was strong enough that the little political signs on peoples yards were bent nearly completely over. I decide to cope with it in three ways: 1. Not complain because I think the people in Arizona run in this kind of stuff all the time. 2. See it as a toughening experience that will pay off on race day. If race day is windy, I'll be used to it. If it's not, it will feel easy. 3. I spent the last couple miles chanting over and over something to the effect of "why don't I stop? For no other reason than I am too tough to stop."

| 45 Min Cross Train. 15 min on Rower and 30 Min on Bike. Weights: Bench, curls, tricep pd, lat pull downs and crunches. I just love the way I feel after this type of full body workout As I walked into the locker room the thought that popped into my head was "I have found the fountain of youth." I really do think I feel better today in my 40's than I did in my 20's and it is because of exercise.

| Morning run at JD Park. Beautiful sunny weather and a light cool breeze. I had the whole park pretty much to myself except for a couple of city workers out working on the baseball fields. Spent most of the time pondering some of the real cool stuff I have been reading in a biography of Abraham Lincoln that I got for my birthday.
I'm embarrassed to admit it, but my legs were still a little tender from Saturdays run. It's a bit frustrating to be that slow in recovering. Maybe I need to get better with my nutrition and more consistent sleep. I think part of the problem was Saturdays run was the first time in a long time that I was on pavement (instead of the treadmill) and also fierce winds were my enemy and hedged up my way. Couldn't be that I'm getting old...
