5 miles in the early morning with Jaren, before the storm and practice.  Windy and cool, but not bad.  Knee was tight at the end.  7:05 ave

Ran from Butterfield up Cove Hill with Jaren and back.  Legs were tired from yesterdays' legs day, and it was way cold, like 40 degrees.  Finished our run just before practice.  Jaren has lifeguard training all week, so we are going earlier.  7:21 ave

Ran before practice with Jaren.  We did 2 miles of tempo that I was going to have the kiddos do for practice.  Felt tough for me today.  Jaren beat me by about a minute.  I went 5:55, and 5:54.  7:08 ave.

Achilles on left side pretty tight starting out.  Knee was much better today.

Ran from camp at Cottonwood down to Nephi.  It was gorgeous at first, but at about 3 miles a warm south wind picked up and I had a headwind the rest of the way.  Doesn't happen too often that you get a headwind going down the caynon.  First mile was slower because the achilles on my left side is having issues and is the reason I took yesterday off.  It warmed up though and I ran decent down and was uder 7:00 every mile after with my last one at 6:23 and an average of 6:49 for the run.  needed this run, because I have Bryce in 3 weeks and I am not in shape, or 100% yet.  

Knee was better, but still got tight thoughout the run and I felt it in different places.
