| 14.5 miles easy. Started by doing 10.5 miles easy from my home with Spencer and Mike. Then, ran a 5k with my son in AF. I paced him -- he PR'd at 21:10. Very fun. My other children ran, as did Mike's, Brandon's, and Dan's. Even Spencer showed up. Was great to see them all there! | |

| 10 miles from Scott's home with Mike, Spencer, Reed, and Scott. 4 mile warm-up, 2 mile warm-down. Did 4 mile tempo in 21:12 (5:18 average; splits were 5:18, 5:13, 5:20, 5:19). Felt great. Decided to stop the tempo at 4 miles so I didn't over-do it. Scott was an animal (he did a 5 mile tempo at 5:12 average). Mike looked great also (he did the first 3 miles with me). Spencer and Reed are both making great progress.

| AM: 10 easy miles along the Jordan River Trail with Scott, Mike, and Spencer. There's an incredible amount of wildlife around the Jordan River this time of year. Definitely a lot of fun. PM: 5.5 easy miles up and down Provo canyon. Upper body and hamstring weights.

| 10 easy miles up and down Provo canyon with Scott, Reed, and Brandon. Legs were totally wasted this morning. Probably because of my double yesterday, and my lack of sleep. I need to get more sleep. Scott ran a great 5k tempo during the run today (see his blog for details). |

| 16 miles up and down Provo canyon, starting at the Orem soccer fields. Quite a crew: Brandon, Scott, Mike, Steve, Chris, Reed, and even Jody Benson! Warmed up 8 miles, and warmed down 3 miles. After the warm-up, did 5 mile tempo in 26:02 (5:12 average; splits were 5:22, 5:19, 5:08, 5:09, 5:01). Weird run. For the past few days, my legs have been excessively tired and fatigued. Tough to say why, but I'm guessing it's mainly lack of sleep, but also because I doubled on Wednesday. Even during the first 8 miles today, my legs were more tired than usual. This fatigue continued for the first 2-3 miles of the tempo (I did not feel good). But then something weird happened. A switch went off, almost suddenly. I felt really good all of the sudden, and I felt better the faster I went. A good sign. Kind of fun, especially since it's been a rough few days for my legs. Scott and Mike looked awesome, as usual. Mike even put quite a gap on us for awhile. Reed and Brandon ran well also. Jody did really well for just starting to get in shape again.
