Hard workout on the stair master judging by the pool of sweat underneath the machine when I finished.

430 floors in 60 minutes. 

PM: 6 mile walk from downtown SLC to my house. I will give myself credit for 3 miles of running for that since I ran some.

Well, I've been hugely busy with work the past couple days and preoccupied with getting Kramer ready for Foot Locker this weekend. No other excuses really, just haven't been running.

Will run Wednesday.

Busy, busy, busy day. And another one tomorrow.

One mile around the FL course during the race plus a nice 6 miler around Coronado after.

Kramer finished 16th in the U.S.of A. today. Next year he will be the #4 returning runner in the country. I have to admit that I was thrilled to see him cross so soon with forty runners as talented as the ones in this field.

Kramer missed All American (top 15) by 1.1 second. I have to admit that I felt like he should have finished quite a bit higher if he had run a little more aggressively over the second mile. He was 33rd at the 2 mile mark. I'm pretty sure he felt the same way. But I am so proud of everything he has accomplished this year and as a coach I am going to make it his goal to come back next year and win this thing.

Conner Mantz from Sky View finished 12th and Ben Sorrel of Park City finished 4th. The West got edged out by the South for the team title.
