| | Today my run did not feel very good. The first three or so miles were very hard, my legs, calves were tight. It felt a bit better around mile 4 or five, but still was not a great feeling run. Don't know what it was, just very heavy tired legs. 8.7 miles 1:17:48

| | Well today did not feel so good. Why is it that the first 2-3 miles of a run always feel hard? Then on top of it I needed to have a potty break twice in the first 21/2 mile AGHHHH I feel like I was fighting my body the entire way. Well mile 4 or 5 didn't feel too bad:) I'm hoping that it's still just that my legs have not fully recovered from the race Saturday. I took it slower... but not really by choice LOL

| | Today was a complete running debacle! A while ago a running friend had told me about some new trails in N. Ogden, so I planned on running there. It's closer to my house and I really wanted to run some trails today. I parked at the trail head parking lot just up N. Ogden divide, the sign said Bonneville Shoreline trail, sweet this should be great! right! I start going and pretty soon I realize I'm way too over dressed, I NEVER expose my tummy but after 20 minutes I'm dieing, so I figure I have not seen any one else so it will be safe to take off my shirt and just run with my sports bra. Soon I realize I can not find the trail... I take a path that heads straight up the mountain... thinking it will go in the right direction. I huff up a huge hill, and when it finally levels off and I can run a bit it dead ends!!! AGHHH... I can see a trail below but can't get to it... so down the steep path back to where another path heads off.... I think I'm good now... then the trail heads into a barb wire fence what the heck!.... down the tail again and out to another trail head, and now there are bikers... and I have my shirt tied to my waist... I think... I don't know them so it will be OK and I can ask about how to get on the right trail. As I approach one of the bikers I realize much to my shame he works at my building... oh the shame of it... I tough it out and ask if he knows how to get to the trail that I point to. He tells me he has only gone the other direction. So now I'm determined to get to that trail and have a good run!!! I run down the road a bit until a get to another open area that goes up to the trails.... Ureaka!!! I'm thinking this is it... Climb up the first steep part then I will be happily running this trail. The trail levels off a bit and two to three turns onto the trail and it dead ends!! I'm talking complete dead end to a cliff.... So down I go again... back the way I had started I'm thinking this is crazy I have been out here for 40 minutes and still have not the trail that I think I can run on. So dishearted I slowly jog up the trail that all the biker are taking, that is not going the direction I had planned, I turn around at the 55 minute mark and head back to my car. :( I think I got about 51/2 miles of a run in, but it was a hard effort with all the climing. Today all my kids and grandkids are coming over for birthday party (Husband, oldest son and oldest grandaughter) I hope that everyone else had a better run. Have a great weekend. 5.5 - 1:08:40
