Tried new shoes on todays medium/lomg run to see if that helps with the achilles pain. New shoes worked great! No achilles pain! Nathan and I did 11.5 miles of the SLC Half Marathon course. Fun run, but it was so cold! I am so ready for warmer running weather. Now I am home trying to warm up while eating some home made soup. We stretched when we got home.

7 with Wilson and Nathan. We did the first 7 miles of the course. I took ibuprofen and wore my compression socks for my achilles and I think that is the secret formula... NO PAIN! Today was the first run in a long time without pain. Averaged 7:30. Wilson was wiped! Wahoo! Gotta love tiring out a 1 year old Great Dane puppy!

Started at my house, ran a half mile, then Nathan texted me saying he got off of work, so I ran home to meet him. Then started from my house and ran on south Temple until Virginia Street. At this point it was blizzardinf and I was so tired. I don't think I ate enough because running up VS I had to stop to catch my breath and walk. I was sooooo wiped. Then took 11th Ave to city creek, through city creek to state street, down to south temple, then finished until 9. After VS, I was able to get in a groove and we were doing 7:40's, but south Temple and Virginia street we were doing 10 minute pace. I really need to work on my fuel before running. I'm glad I got out there and we had a good effort this evening. Stretched when we got home.

Really did not want to go running today. I was not in the mindset, was super tired from a late evening last night, and just had so much to do for my work trip tomorrow, but Nathan convinced me to go for a medium long run. Started at my house, ran to the trax station, took that up to the U, then ran to the museum so I could pick up my work car and stuff I need for my work trip, then drove the van back to my place, continued the run after. That little detour took much longer than I thought it would... but after we started again at my house and ran to SHP, did a lap around, ran down to 1100 east, took that a while, then ran down to 900 east, ran that a while, then down to 800 east and ran that home. These long runs are getting easier. I'm so glad Nathan got me out the door. I wish we could've gone further, but it was already 7:30 at this point and I still have stuff I need to do before I leave tomorrow morning at 5am.
