4 miles of walk/jogging working around parental and spiritual duties. I think I'll give myself credit for 1.5 miles of running.

Happy President's Day! Started it off with Abby making me breakfast. Pancakes with real maple syrup, fruit, and turkey sausage. Heading out for a longish run now...

14 miles in 1:40 at Sugar House Park. Smme of it with Kramer, Braydon, Blake, and Cubby. Dunkin Donuts after - becomming a tradition.

Not a big deal run, just getting some miles in today, but I really felt good today. Seven miles plus some fast striders.

Plus Ann made one of my favorite dinners tonight. So life is OK.

PM: Half-hour tickle fight with Andy. Good workout!

Today I did 5 X 1 mile on the treadmill. Started at 6:30 and worked down to 6:00. Just working in some quality miles without getting all wacko with it.

Good race today. The SLTC 15K is a flat, out and back course. I managed to keep the pace around 5:56 to 6:00 until about 6 miles when I slowed a little bit to about 6:05 for miles 7 and 8. I think I ducked back under 6 minute pace for the last mile with Kassi barreling down on me. Ran with a pretty good pack going out , including James, Steve Ashbaker, Kassi, and a bunch of high school kids. I'm not used to running in a pack and had to work to avoid clipping people's feet . I was mostly by myself on the way back as James pulled ahead and Steve dropped back a little.

I was thrilled to finish "in the money" in the Masters division for the first time in a while (behind Dennis and Sasha) and I appreciate Steve Anderson for running 46 miles in the Grand Canyon yesterday for making that possible.

One more thing. According to Runner's World, my time is an age-graded 49:32. That sounds a lot better. I might start entering all my race times in the "age graded format".
