| After 3 days of rest, I went for a 6 miler on the rail trail. This is the first run in the VFFs on the trail. It felt really good. The weather was beautiful -- 70F, light breeze. Most of the miles were between 7:40 and 8:00, but decided to try to go sub 7:00 on the last mile. Ended with a 6:36 (I've decided that I have no concept of speed anymore). Signing up for UVM. Will be bringing my family out west for a little summer vacation -- with one of our stops being the UVM in June. Can't wait to see a bunch of my Utahn running buddies, again.

| Started my run alone at lunchtime (didn't know where Darin was -- he had a meeting). Calves were still a little tight -- it's like I feel every step when running in the VFFs. I ran in the grass beside the road/sidewalks whenever possible. Felt good. Met Darin at about 3.75 miles, coming the other direction. We ran together for the last 2.25 miles. 55F, N 15 7:29, (169 bpm -- not a good connection) 7:51, 143 bpm 7:40, 152 bpm 7:33, 154 bpm 7:24, 157 bpm 6:42, 156 bpm

| Lunchtime run w/ Darin. 55F, Sunny...perfect! Ran in the VFFs again -- had no real plan for the run. Just took it out at a comfortable pace, and kept it about the same. Really liking the VFFs! I don't think they're slowing me down at all...just takes a little getting used to them. Feet feel great. Calves are still a little tight..but improving. Going to have to try a long run in them. Today was the longest run in them, so far (6.2 miles)
