I used to run for BYU, but only after trying out three times and finally walking on, so I was never a star. However, it was wonderful to run with great people and under Coach Shane. When you run with fast people, you can't help to improve! I graduated BYU in 1998, and didn't run a race until 2002, after having my second child. My hiatus and other crazy life commitments have made my competitive running suffer, but the last couple of years I have tried to get back into it the best I can. I have been married since 1996, to Paul Lowry, who is a runner himself. I have three boys (my three rascals), ages 12, 10, and 8. After a great 2008 season, I was injured and eventually diagnosed and cross-diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis, a type of arthritis disease, which precludes running for all but the most stubborn. So I am on medications, trying to stay healthy, and seeing my PT often. And running! Now beating the streets in Hong Kong. |

Met MacK and Tyler. Warmed up 30 min, then did 20x25 sec on/1 min off again. 5:12 ave pace for 1st 10, then 4:45 ave pace for last 10. Ave overall for fast bits were 4:58. It seems like we were pushing them, I guess we were a bit too hard. The paces aren't so accurate for each 25 sec, but overall they mean something. Overshot my cool down a bit, so got an extra .5 mile or so. Got a nice gash in my arm about 5:20. Did core workout at 7pm. Met Marion, MacK and another friend for chinese then Eclipse. Still funny at parts, especially when sitting next to MacK, but was much better than the first two movies.

86F at start, 90F at the end of the run. 10.23 miles in 75 min, 7:20 ave pace. Hot! Got about 10-12 stitches in my arm after my run. Seems the butterfly bandages were not adequate for my laceration.

| Met MacK and Tyler. Mack was only able to run the warm up then headed back. Warmed up about 3.5 then started 40 min steady state tempo (6:21-6:34 pace). Mile 1 6:25 (gradual uphill, abt 1% grade), Mile 2 6:23 (downhill and flat), Mile 3 6:18 (slight downhill, Mile 4 6:19, Mile 5 6:21, rolling uphill, 6:24, downhill then uphill, .31 in 1:54 (6:08 pace). 6.31 miles in 40:04, or 6:21 ave pace. Nice to do more than a 10k in 40 minutes. The pace was mostly comfortable, I could get out 1/2 a sentence at a time, though we weren't too chatty, that is until mile 5 and we started going uphill and I just kept quiet. With .75 to go I got a peak at a beautiful sunrise and almost said how pretty it was, but decided to save my breath for the running. It was so nice to have Tyler there. He wore his red running shoes which must be magical, because he always seems to be a couple of steps ahead of me and breathing easy. As the tempos get longer, it is so nice to have company to push me. It goes by faster and is less painful. At home did my 6 way lunges, stretching, and 16 min ice bath (50F). |

| Met AmberG and Melody. So fun to run with them. Amber and I ran 6 miles, stretched, and them met up with Melody. It was cooler this morning than past mornings. A couple of miles in the 7teens, 7:41 ave pace. Felt good afterward, just some weakness in the legs. Reminds me of my 20 milers, just not quite to 20 yet. Hope coach has that in store for next month. We went up to the SF reservoir to ice after the run, but it was disappointingly a mild temperature: 65-66F. Stayed in it for 18 min, soaking up the fun conversation with the ladies. Then went home and did an 11 min ice bath at 54F. My weight for the next couple of weeks will be measured with my lameo oldfashioned scale since my digital scale was absconded to Finland. Yeah baby! My first 70 mile week in foreva! I am so excited. My body has seemed to handle the week well. |
