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: |

I woke up today with a knot on the inside of my left leg. Not quite in the groin area, but pretty close to it. I rubbed some Wintercrest on it and I'm gonna rest for the day. Hopefully will be ok tomorrow.

AM Total run time 1:03:47 Windy and rainy today so I took my speed workout to the gym. My leg feels fine now, but I don't want to take a chance so kept the speed very manageable for the distance. 2 mile warm-up, then 12 x 400 with 100 recovery. Recovery time was the same as the interval time. Splits were 88, 88, 87, 87, 86, 87, 87, 86, 88, 87, 86, 87. Ran a 2 mile cool down. PM Did some planks, side planks, running, and chair pose.

AM 54:30 Felt pretty crappy today, inner left leg was sore starting out, and both legs felt heavy the entire run. At least it wasn't windy! Did some core and light leg exercises after run. Avg. 7:37 per mile

| AM 35:29 Went down to check out the Round Valley trails today and they're dry, HOORAY! These are my favorite trails to run because they have a more of a XC feel than aggressive steeps and decents like most of the other trails in town. Those are better for biking. : ) It's still really windy out and I felt a little fatigued, so just did a short one today. Did 40 push-ups with the door gym, core, and 2 sets of 15 good mornings and squats after run. Avg. 7:22 per mile.

| NOON I bought some XC shoes for sprints in the grass. They're super light and the flexion plate on the bottom is really tough, so I don't even feel the rocks on the dirt trail. They are super narrow at mid-foot which is kind of weird, but it puts me up on my toes more which I think will help my form and make me stronger. I ran my warm-up and cool-down in them too. Ran up to Willow Creek, then did 5 x sets of 5 seconds all out, then 10 seconds trying to keep my stride strong, but relaxed. Felt really good and it was beautiful outside!
