| | Happy Birthday! No where is the adage "it isn't where you go, but how you get there" more true than running. We ran from park A to park B to do strides, then back to park A to do circuits. Really? But being a swimmer, I think I know how to cope with not actually going anywhere (1, 2, 3, 4, 5,....16, 17 flip, 1, 2, 3,.........) Circuits aren't as bad as I thought they'd be... but that might be because I got a brief respite face down in the grass--Thanks Mr. Edwards!

| | Stay on the sunnyside, always on the sunnyside stay on the sunnyside of life. Also the glen... Lesson learned today: Natalie is fast. Emily said to either try to pass someone or stay ahead of someone. I think Natalie decided to go for the follow-right-behind-mike-to-make-him-think-I'm-trying-to-pass-him-so-he'll-run-faster approach to our 10 minute fast/slow part of the workout.

Liberté Park. We did a hillish workout *kneeslap* We warmed up, ran six up-down-up-down laps and then cooled off. In good news RJ's ancient shoes are heaven sent! In bad news Taylor, Amanda, Sarah and I did lots of core. The butt one in particular. I guess that could also be good news.

Ran for 27 minutes at (if gmap running is accurate) 8 minutes a mile almost exactly. I was just under 3.5. I ran from my house--right across from the East High Track--up to the Foot Hill Library via 9th south, then down 13th, and across 17th back to 9th, and home. As always I started pretty slowly... I realize more and more how inertia is a principle of psychology as much as it is of physics. Once I got going I felt pretty good, so when I started to flag at about 17 minutes I really tried to push it to the end. I didn't sprint, but I think the last 10 minutes were closer to my "Trying-to-keep-up-with-Taylor" pace, rather than my "Somehow-without-trying-all-of-the-other-first-year-runners-are-way-behind-me-(were the hills at liberty really that bad?)" pace. [moderately fast workout vs. a moderately fast cool down.] I liked having 2 easy days back to back, I'm hoping when I get back from Powell I'll be all better from all ails. PS Yeah...I slept A LOT

Bad Mike! I missed a day... Still blogging about it though. I left myself from 3-7 to do three things: run, mow the lawn, and find a date to double with Bryson. At 7 I had accomplished none of the above. FAIL. **after reading and commenting on Scott's blog, I decided I will not take failure as an answer. I did core. C-

| | I ran with Ben. Need I say more? ...probably We were going to run with Christian Bennett, but he "fell asleep." Interesting stroy actually... we come up to his house and Bonnie tells us that he had gone with his mom to Costco. So we left.. Ben and I ran up Michigan to 19th then down to Sugarhouse, stopping at the drinking fountain. As much as Amanda hates me for always wanting to drink water, I still do it. Maybe some day she'll forgive me and be as "friendly" as Lindsay. Anyway, after that brief rest we started off at a more Benjamin-y pace...ouch. We ran around the park and back along 19th. Because part of the loop around Sugarhouse was closed we turned down 13th for a block and went passed that one park on 18th... whatever it's called. Then we went up Harvard and back to Christian's. I felt like I did really wel1 up until we left got out of Sugarhouse park. then the last two miles at Ben's full pace of fury were pretty bad. But like I promised Amanda I would, I kept up with Ben. Then I went home and mowed the lawn, then after I was done, and super sweaty I did my core. 125 crunches and 30 incline pushups.
