I slept in until 8:00am because I stayed up so late last night. I missed Timo at 26.2 so I ran on my own. I did the loop on the Lone Peak and Alpine hwys. It was a lot warmer today and I overdressed. Legs were tight but I got going eventually. I averaged 7:19 per mile for the run with 6:33 being my fastest mile. It was good to get my first run of 2009 under my belt. May running goals for the year are: Break 2:30 in a marathon Break 1:11 in a half marathon Get over my small injuries and stay healthy Keep running with my high school athletes Get stronger by cross training on a consistent basis Run more miles than I did in 2007 Try some new fun races as a 30 year old HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I met Timo again for another Holiday morning run. Today we headed down the icy roads to Utah Lake to the boat harbor. We came back through the fields a different way. The run was very flat and I enjoyed it because I had never been that way before. 7:56 ave.

| I had my first day of indoor practice with my kids. We celebrated with a wet and sloppy run in a snow storm through the neighborhoods of Riverton. Good times! I hope the kids get used to the weather because I don't do much indoor running, even for indoor season. | |

| Easy loop with my kids into Bluffdale and back. I did a couple extra miles on my own. I was overdressed since it was way warmer today. | |

| Morning run today up to Lone Peak High and back. It was pretty cold out, and the roads were very icy, especially the back roads. And the frozen leftovers from the snow plows are not a joy to run on either, the shoulders were rough. I did something today that I have never done before, run with music. I can't say if I like it or not until I try it a few times. Normally when I run on my own I like to get lost in thought and relax, but today with music wasn't bad. I was definitly not as relaxed as usual, but that is expected with some Van Halen and Styx playing in my ears. 50:40 and 7:14 ave pace for the run.

Ran with Chris, Alex, and Tim today. The weather was nice so we took advantage and did a longer run. We ran up to the Day Break temple and back. The pace picked up on the way back and we were running down around 6:30 pace the last couple of miles. I ran two extra miles and ended up with 10 miles total. Good run today!
Lifted upper body

| We met at the Riverton pool and ran south on the Jordan River pkwy. We ran out into Bluffdale and back. My arms are so trashed from lifting this week! They hurt like crazy the first couple of miles. Chris, Alex, and Dillon picked it up the last half of the run, and I tried to catch up with them but never quite did. I gained on them several times but had to stop and tie my shoe twice. We were going under 6:30 and down around 6:00 pace the last couple of miles. Good run today! 51:42 for the run. | |

| Crappy crappy air out there. I had my kids do treadmill and bike today, and lift lower body because the air was terrible. I might have to do the same thing. | |

| Finally decent enough air to run this week. I went up to the highland gardens and back. 23:00 for the way out and 18:15 for the way back. I hope I didn't push too hard today since it was still semi bad air. I am still having a lot of adductor irritation and don't know quite what to do about it. 41:15 | |

I am having some adductor and groin problems on my right side. Friday's run did me in for a couple of days. I lifted my upper body at the Rec Center this evening instead of running.

| Ran with Derrek, Alex, and Ashlyn today. Chilly, but not as bad as the past two days. We averaged just over 7:30 pace for the run. I ran 8 miles in 1:00:25. I can tell that My groin and adductor will be sore tomorrow. | |
