| Greg came over to my house this morning and we ventured out on a 20 miler up Butterfield Canyon and back. I planted drinks for us at the Cove pond and at the mouth of Butterfield Canyon. The morning was nice and we had a goo run. I wasn't sure how I would do after fasting yesterday and not running more than 9 miles in a run since mid July, I was fine though. We ran up in 7:40 pace and came down fairly good. Greg did well until the last 3 miles and then he started to peter out a bit. I ended up leaving him and running sub 6:20 pace for the last 3 miles. Felt pretty good and felt really good to be done. Good way to start off September. 2:22:06 for the run.

After my invite we went up to Willard to stay the night at the in-law's place. We wanted to go to the Brigham City Temple and Greg was running TOU, so I figured I would do a long run in Logan and run with him for a while. I got up and made it over to Logan by 7:00am. I parked in fronto of our old house and ran through River Heights, Providence, and Millville, then up Hollow Road. I thought I would run into runners at the mouth of the canyon, but they must have started late. I ended up running into the headwind for a couple of miles and made it clear to past half way before I found Greg. On the way I saw Jake flying down the canyon with that tailwind, , Sasha, a kid I coached at Riverton (who ended up 9th overall), Adam,Rachelle running awesome, Drew, and others. Stopped and talked to Cody for a couple of minutes, it was good to see him, it has been forever! I jumped in with Greg, who was with the 3:15 group. I ran with him until a mile to go and ended up with 24 miles when I wanted 20. I felt fine, and enjoyed running 12 miles of the marathon bandit. Greg did really well accept for around mile 20 and mile 23 and 24 where I really had to drag him along. The 3:15 pacers and group caught and passed us at 23 miles and I told Greg he had to get them by the end when I left him by the Tabernacle, he got them. I ran over to the park after leaving Greg and had exactly 24 miles on the Garmin when I got there. 7:22 ave. Greg ended up 3:13:54 for his first marathon with limited training, not bad. I talked to several people afterward that ran well, like Rachelle and Adam. Beautiful day to race, you couldn't ask for better conditions. I had a good time running and had more problem doing the 24 miles. Good to get a long one in after a busy busy week. It gives me more confidence going into St. George in 3 weeks, being way under trained and under raced. I should still do OK.

I took the day off and got up early to do my last long run. Legs have been tired since the 24 miler on Saturday. It took me a while to get going as my first mile was almost 9 minutes. I settled into a pace for the rest of the run. I did the same run up Butterfield Canyon as I did Memorial Day and Labor Day with Greg. I 7:55 pace almost at the turn around. Took my fluid belt with me this time instead of planting drinks. The way back I just cruised, not much push in the legs, and that is fine. I had two miles over 7 Minutes in the last 10 miles with 6:14 being my last and fastest mile. Harder running tired and by myself, but glad to be done with it. I am feeling stronger, but not fast, so we'll see how this St. George pans out. I think I will do OK. 2:25:21 for the run, 7:16 pace. I am off to Bear River where we are running our JV in the Relay. Then off to Boise to Bob Firman with my top 6 boys and top 2 girls.

| Ran this morning from the hotel through some sub divisions in Meridian Idaho with Haag. Got in last night at 11:30pm. Legs are tired, but still felt good at a 7:22 pace. Bob Firman- My girls ran good with Lucy my sophomore running with Katie Knight the #2 girl in the nation for the first half. She died a little and got passed by two seniors, but still ran 18:17 and took 4th. The boys took 3rd with a solid performance beating Davis (#10 in the nation), Ogden, Mountain View, and other top ranked teams. They lost to Arcadia ( #4 in nation) and North Central (#5 in nation). Good showing.

| Ran up the trail to 6400 W and back to Monarch. When I hit 6400 W I did two miles of tempo in 5:32 and 5:23. Then did a 1.5 mile cool down at 7:05 pace. Felt good on the run, nice cool day too. 6:49 ave. My achilles has been bugging me for months, and my legs are tired, but my back is way tight since last week. I have a massage and adjustment scheduled for tomorrow and I hope to get loosened up for next week. |

| Ran up Suncrest with the Varsity boys. Ran up into a headwind in 39:00. Chuk, Connor, and Rory took off on the way down and I tried to chase them. My last 3 miles were 5:02, 5:04, 5:03, and .3 in 1:28 or 4:45 pace. Hopefully I don't get too sore!:) 1:00:30 for the run. Fun run now that I am done.
