R2R2R @ the Grand Canyon with a group of friends - 16 hours(2014) Short-Term Running Goals: Get back in decent running form. Maybe enter a road race in 2017? Long-Term Running Goals: Run a 5k under 18:00 Personal: Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon. I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out. Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe. Favorite Blogs: |

AM 47:04 Ran a nice loop thru town. I'm having some hip flexor pain from the higher mileage last week, so I took it pretty easy for the first few miles, but once the legs warmed up I was cruising like normal. I'm gonna do this loop a couple more times this week, with a long run of about 10 miles on Friday. Then some cross country skiing this weekend to mix it up. Avg. 7:22 per mile.

AM 46:16 Ran the same loop as yesterday. I felt a little stiff today, but my legs wanted to go! I had to tell my self to slow down a couple times in the first 2 miles because my breathing was labored. I may ran a few chill miles after work before a storm hits tonight thru tomorrow. Avg. 7:14 per mile. PM 21:54 Stayed pretty warm out, so I swung a few small loops thru the neighborhood. Strides felt really light and effortless which is always a great feeling! Avg. 7:26 per mile.

AM It was supposed to snow this morning and clear up this afternoon, so I'm waiting till after work to go for a run. Did 60 push-ups, some core including abs, obliques, and lower back, then some squats. Nothing too difficult, but a nice work out. 1PM 48:19 It cleared up a little after lunch time so I decided better get it while gettin's good. Ran 2.88 easy around my work and stopped for about 1 minute to shake out my legs. Did a 2 mile tempo at 6:25 per mile. The headwinds were nasty at first, but then I got on the other side of the interstate to that blocked the wind. Ran out of room by the end and ran the last .10 uphill into the wind...at least that was the end of hard effort. i felt a little winded and unstable, but not too bad. Ran another 1.78 back to the office.

AM 1:20..and some change I was going to run easy today, but a storm is forecasted for tonight thru tomorrow, and it seems like each day I wanted to do a long run last month it snowed just enough to make it unenjoyable. So I took advantage of the calm weather today and did my rest week long run today. I felt really good this morning, so this wasn't a bad choice at all. I ran for 2.36 miles up and down a frontage road by my house, then did 4 laps of 1.74 miles each thru the neighborhood across from my house. These are pretty sweet loops, and I'm thinking of doing some tempo work on them. The first 1/3 is slight downhill to flat, then the second 1/3 is flat and slight uphill right at the end, before turning onto the last 1/3 which is a gradual uphill back to the start. I then ran 1.36 miles back to my house. This was a great run because I felt a little fatigued starting out until about mile 4, then I got into a nice rythm, and by mile 10.4 felt like I could easily do another mile or so, but duty calls, and play time was over. Avg. 7:30 per mile.
