Morning run, breezy, temp. 50'

My legs were very sore yesterday and this morning.  Saturdays 13 mile run, flag football, rooftop Christmas light hanging and tilling the garden all added up to sore legs.  I took it easy this morning and it hurt the whole way.  I'm not sure if I'll be up for my Tuesday tempo run.  May have to delay it a day.

Noon run, breezy, mostly cloudy, temp. 42'

The run felt good when I was running with the wind and the sun was out but it was pretty cold when I was running against the wind and the clouds were in control.  My legs were still a little stiff, nothing like yesterday.  I ran the 1st few miles around 7:30 miles but I could tell it was a little fast for a recovery type run so I slowed down a little.

Noon run, Temp 35'

I forgot I promised to take the kids for a couple of hours around lunch time so that Taunia could got to lunch with some old highschool friends or I would have run in the morning.  The plan was to push one in the jogging stroller and let the 5 year old bike to the park.  Then run around the 1/2 mile park course a few times while they played.  But the slides had snow on them and it didn't seem right to leave them even though I wouldn't be to far away.   Oh well, hopefully I can keep Kim from Chicking me on mileage this week even without much of a run today.  Also, I still have not recovered fully from Saturdays abuse so I didn't feel to bad about not running much today.

Thanksgiving morning run, mostly sunny, temp 30'

Yesterday afternoon a new running friend showed up at my front door step.  I call him/her? Garmin 205.  What a friend.  Garmin tells me how fast I'm running how far etc...  Cool!  Anyway I jogged down to the Bingham High track and meet my family that drove their.  We jogged a few laps and then split up in teams an had a soccer game.  After that they drove home and I took the long way home with Garmin even though my legs weren't feeling all that great.

Noon run in St. George,  Temp 48'

After Dallas's 9:00am soccer game we went and visited Grandma and then went to the outlet stores.  I changed into my jogging outfit and me and Garmin went for a run.  I headed south to the river and found a jogging trail and headed to the west end of town where our hotel is.  The turkey dinner the day before must have been the thing to get my legs feeling better.  I had a good run.

Morning run, St. George, Temp 37'

My good freind the moon was out for the morning run.  Maybe being at a lower elevation helps my running because I felt good again today.  Went and jogged the river path on an out and back run. 

Dallas's team won their second game on Friday and needed to win their Saturday morning game to go to the finals but they lost 1-0.  Oh well it gave us just enough time to drive to Ephraim and head up the canyon and cut down a christmas tree and get home at 9:30pm.
