A Runner at Heart.....Riding a Bike

It was 58 degrees and really humid (99%) this morning after all the rain last night.  I started out easy and ran 3 miles with Bob.  After he dropped off I picked up the pace and finished the last 2+ miles in a 7:10 pace.  My legs are in GREAT shape after Saturday.  I ran a total of 8.21 miles.

It was 51 degrees and humid again (91%) with a slight breeze.  I ran a nice, steady 13.26 miles after not getting enough sleep last night.  My manager in Idaho Falls woke me up late to inform me that a car had swerved off 17th St. and plowed through one of the columns that holds up our drive-thru cover and slammed in to the truck sitting at the window getting their food.  The 2 vehicles were wedged between the 2nd column and the building.  Now I get to make sure the entire cover structure does not collapse and shut-down own drive-thru, which is over 70% of our business.

I was able to get a construction company to come in and shore-up the building this morning.  They had to jack-up the beam a couple inches and then put a temporary support until the final job can be completed later in the week.  Luckily they were done by 11:30am so we did not lose too much business.

It was 51 degrees this morning with high humidity (83%) again.  This is strange for our area.  I ran 8.56 miles nice and easy.

It was 53 degrees this morning.  I just did a fairly easy 10.41 miles.  I was tired after last nights activities.  One of the members of our church is moving and his wife needed some yard work help to prepare the house for selling.  He is already at the new job so we were asked to help.  Well when we got there we saw what the job really was.  We had to rip out a bunch of railroad ties used for terracing all over the yard and then install these HUGE retaining wall blocks that had been stacked on the patio.  We worked for almost 3 hours but we got a lot done.

It was 49 degrees...a beautiful morning.  I ran 10.25 miles fairly easy with a couple pick-up miles towards the end.  Planning a good tempo run tomorrow.

It was 55 degrees this morning.  I started my run with Barry Smith and Todd.  I wanted to run from the top of Buckskin but they did not want to so we ran out towards Chubbuck and looped back.  Todd turned around after 3 so it was just Barry and I.  We ran in to Angela around mile 7 and ran a bit with her before we headed back.  After we climbed back on the bench we did one last quick mile (6:40) before we cooled-down.  I went 13.66 miles with some good tempo mixed in.

1 week until the Pocatello marathon......you can tell because there are runners everywhere today!
