Met the group at Bingham for the regular miles.  Duke and I only wanted to 3 miles.  My foot still hurts some and I didn't want to over do it and Duke can only go 3 or he starts to limp.  We both had fun.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my 6 mile course.  I did it in under 22 minutes but today it seemed a little harder because the wind was blowing hard going north.

Met the group at the church on Tithing Hill.  We ran up and down the hills around the subdivision and then went down to the trail to do speed work.  We found a straight stretch that was about 600 yards so we ran fast one direction and slow back.  We did this 4-5 times and then we headed south on the trail.  When we got back to the park they kept going and I headed back to the car.  I was very tired going up the hill so I had to walk for a minute.  Even though I only stayed for 3 miles I was very, very tired.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I ran the Linda Buttars Memorial 10K at Jordan Landing.  It was a little bit cool and I was glad because after the 1st mile I started to get hot.  I have only run 3 miles twice since the Riverton Half so I wasn't trying to break any speed records.  I just kept it slow and steady.  My son-in-law and granddaughter were running the 5K and I saw them at the start but they finished ahead of me.  I had a good time visiting with people along the way.  I ran it in 1 hour and 12 minutes which is my slowest 10K ever, but I was just glad to make it to the end.  My left foot feels pretty good, but my right foot is quite sore.  I have tendonitis on the top, side part of my foot.  I decided not to bike today because I am already tired and I need to help Leslie paint this afternoon.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike my usual 6 mile course.  The wind was blowing very hard and it felt like the whole ride was up hill.  It took me 26 minutes instead of 22.  I got a very good workout.  I sure hope the wind isn't blowing on Saturday when I do my Goldilocks ride.

Went early to the BBK run so Duke and I could run a mile before the others got there.  I had to be to work a 6am but wanted to run 3.  My foot didn't hurt much and it didn't hurt the rest of the day.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my 6 mile course.  The wind wasn't blowing and it was much easier.  I did it in just under 22 minutes.  Then I did my arm weight exercises, got groceries, had dinner and then went with my husband to Leslie's house to help install some cabinets.  Now I am taking a rest for the rest of the night.

I didn't have time to meet the group because they were meeting too far away so Duke and I ran down to Redwood and up to 106th and back at 5am.

Shannon, Loretta and I did the Goldilocks bike ride.  We were signed up for the 60 mile, but Shannon didn't want to go the whole way so we rode with Loretta as far as Camp Williams and then turned around.  It was perfect weather for a bike ride and we had a nice time.  Shannon and I did 43 miles and then we sat on the grass and ate our lunch while we waited for Loretta.  Shannon decided that I should just take her car home and she would wait for Loretta.  I came home, showered and had a nap before Shannon got here.  I saw two people I knew on the ride.  I saw Lisa Dudley in the parking lot when I was leaving to go home and Vanessa Housel at the rest stop on 27th.  I really enjoyed the ride and didn't get too tired.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my 6 miles course.  It was not windy today so I did it in under 21 minutes and got a good workout.  Then I went outside and weeded and after I take a short brake I will plant my flowers and then after dinner it is back over to help Leslie on her house.  She wants to move in this weekend so me have a lot to get done.

Duke and I met the group at SJ Library and had a good 3 mile run.  After work I helped Leslie on her house.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike 6 miles.  Then after dinner I went to help Leslie again.

I met the BBK's at the church on 98th and 40th west.  Duke and I were a few minutes early so we jogged around the church while we waited.  Not many people came, probably because they are tapering for Ogden.  Cheryl, Debbie and I and 3 guys came.  We ran up past the golf course to the big hill and ran up and down it a few times.  Then we did the mile loop and then I headed back so I could get to work.  It was a good run.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.  I'm not helping tonight because we have to conduct an ARP meeting.

I ran 3 miles with Duke and then I rode my bike on my 6 mile course.  Then I cleaned for a while.  Then Kent, Ben and I went to get the things out of the Storage Auction that I won the bid on.  When we got back we unloaded the stuff and loaded up Leslie things from the garage and went to help her move.  She had all the stuff unloaded from the U-Haul when we got there.  We unloaded the trailer, came home and took a short nap and went back and helped some more.  I'm sure glad her house is finished and she has moved in, it was a lot of work.

I rode my bike on my 6 mile course and did it in 22 minutes.

Met the group for the early miles at the River Front Park.  Mimi and Kris were there.  We ran a loop around the subdivision and then went on the trail.

I took the day off because my daughter broke her leg and needs surgery.  While I waited for her to call I rode my bike on my 6 mile course and then did my arm weight exercises.  She called and we headed up to the hospital in Park City.  They decided to wait until Tuesday to operate.  Her husband will take the day off on Tuesday and I will take Wednesday off to stay with her.  It is just out patient surgery but she will be on crutches for 6 weeks.

I ran 3 miles with Duke before work.  After work I drove back up to Park City to pick up my daughter.  She broke her leg and her husband is working long hours so she needed to come here so we could help her.  She needs surgery on her leg but they will not do it until Tuesday, so we will take her home on Monday.  Her husband has Monday and Tuesday off so I will go back and pick her up on Wednesday and bring her home until his next day off.

I ran 3 miles with Duke, came home and cleaned and then rode 10 miles with Shannon.  Then I spent the day taking car of my daughter that broke her leg and tending grandkids while my daughter moved.  I was very tired by nighttime.

I met Shannon and we did our 10 mile course.  Then I went with my husband, kids and grandkids over Butterfield Canyon where we met my oldest daughter and her husband and family for a picnic.  They live in Tooele so they came from that side and found a spot for us.  We cooked hot dogs and hamburgers and had salad and dessert.  It was good and we had fun.  Then Kent and I drove Becca back to Peoa.  Her surgery is tomorrow and then her husband will bring her back to our house for the week.  He works very long hours and doesn't want her home alone.

Met the group at Riverton Park.  We ran part of the 10K course.  I had to be to work at 7am so I was able to run 3.5.  My foot is starting to feel better so I will slowly increase the miles.

I took the day off to help my daughter that just had surgery.  I woke up early as usual and after breakfast did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.  Then I got her breakfast and then rode my bike on my 6 mile course.  I did in in 21.37 minutes and got a good workout.  Then I weeded for an hour.  I could almost get spoiled and probably will when school is out.

Met the group for the early miles at the SJ Soccer fields.  Only Kris and Aaron were there.  Duke and I started off early and about half way through they caught me.  We kept plugging along and made it back before the group started.  Greg was in charge today and we ran down to Redwood and then back to the soccer field and then I left.  I got a good workout and at work a got a very good workout because we cleaned.  My arms and shoulders are sore now so I am not going to do my arm weight exercises today.
