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 Total workout time 52:30 Really windy outside and snowing pellets, so I ran on a treadmill for the first time this winter and it sucked! My form felt totally off and I started to feel some shin splints on my right side, so I made it 2.25 miles and decided to go bike for a little bit. Did 30 minutes on the bike keeping my heart rate around 120, then bumped up to 150 for the last 12 minutes. Did 2 sets of carioca, butt-kicks, and bounding during my cool down. PM Did some core with leg and light shoulder exercises.

AM Approximate total run time 1:03:00 Still super snowy and unbelievably windy outside, so hit the track today for a ladder workout and it went something like this: 1.5 - warm up, 200 in 41, 400 in 88, 800 in 2:58, 1200 in 4:30, 1600 in 6:12, 1200 in 4:36, 800 in 3:02, then felt a little randy so ran 3 x 400 in 85, 84, 85, then 200 in 33, 1.5 - cool down. Rests for each set was half the time of the interval.
I'm really happy with how I felt. I was worried I would feel like total crap since I haven't done any fast running for the past week, and yesterday wasn't really the best. I could have pushed harder today, but I want to save it for a tempo on Thursday.....weather permitting.
PM 32:06 Ran thru my neighborhood a little while the weather was nice. Hit a few snowy patches, but overall a nice run. Avg. 7:25 per mile.

AM Did 40 push-ups with some planks and side planks. Gonna wait for the temps to warm up and run during lunch. NOON 43:19 Ran the frontage roads by my work. there's a few big hills, but mainly just gradual climbs and descents. I felt kind of beat up from yesterday, and my breathing was a little labored, but my legs wanted to go, so I went with it. stopped by subway at 5.72 miles, got a sandwich, then ran .34 back to my office. Prefect weather for running! Avg. 7:19 per mile.

| AM Did some core this morning. I feel like a total slouch after not running yesterday, and had a pretty big dinner. 1PM Total run time 1:11:22 Did a tempo during the day because I wanted to wear shorts. I was pretty warm, but HOLY WINDS! Good thing I was ready for a hard effort or this would have been just brutal. I did a 2.05 warm-up, which was mostly uphill, then shook my legs out for about 5 minutes. I then did a 6 mile tempo. The course was slight downhill and flat for the first 2.5, then turns into hills for about 1.5, then turns into flat to slight downhill for the last 2 miles. I had about 15 to 20 mph headwinds from mile 2.5 thru the rest of the run. I was able to avg. 6:51 per mile though, so I am super happy about that! Splits were 6:28, 6:41, 6:57, 6:55, 7:04, and 6:58. Ran a 1.84 back to the office for a cool down.

| AM 1:07:21 Dis an out and back on the frontage roads by my house. Still nasty headwinds after the turn around and the whole way back, which has a few rough climbs. This was a little harder than I wanted it to be. Avg. 7:24 per mile. PM 31:45 Ran thru the neighborhood across the street. Winds dies down a little, so this was a nice cruiser. Avg. 7:14 per mile.
