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: |

My hips are kinda sore now, but will just take it easy over the next few days. 1.04 to Memorial Hill, 1 set of XC skier, ski hop, speed skater, butt-kicks, power skips, and carioca w/ a stride between each, 6 x :30 hill sprints @ 5:35 to 5:50 pace w/ 2:30 walk break, 4.65 cool-down 1 PM Ran the millenium trail by Swaner preserve and the frontage roads by my work, then quick stop at Subway before heading back to the office. Beautiful day out. :) 4.50 in 33:07, avg. 7:22 per mile.

I felt kinda sluggish and hungry, but I'll just eat a bunch today. 7.76, no watch 6PM Was gonna bike and do some strength, but legs were feeling good, so decided to keep it slow on the dinner time loop.

AM Hit the trails today. Ran from my office to the Glenwild trailhead and did the Stealth loop around the backside. Super nice run and had some good quad burn on the climbs. I rocketed down the last switchback section and my Garmin said my max pace was 1:34 per mile. Breaking speed records is a daily occurrence for me.: ) 11.03 miles in 1:30:34, avg. 8:13 per mile. 1,466 vertical gain

AM Dinner time lop with some strides. Keepin it short this morning because of a kooky half-marathon Lacy and I are doin tonight in Mapleton. The goal of the race is to finish at midnight without wearing a watch for assistance. I'm just gonna keep a decent effort that will hopefully translate to 6:15-ish pace., so my start time is gonna be 10:40. It's a full moon tonight and there's supposedly gonna be a meteor shower. Should be a pretty cool experience. My legs are still feel a little heavy from Wednesday, but this is more for fun than anything. 4.20 w/ 4 strides, no watch 10 PM The Moonlight half is a fun time. Pretty weird running hard without a watch, but seeing everyone's glowing costumes and having the moon light up Hoble Creek Canyon was pretty rad. The course goes up the canyon for 2 miles, then turns around and comes back down(so you pass the starting line at mile 4) the canyon for the next 6 miles or so, which actually has quite a few rolling hills, then goes along the outskirts of town and ends in the town park.
I ran the first 1.5 miles of the course with Lacy and few friends before heading back to the start. I was gonna start @ 10:40 and shoot for a solid time, but I wanted to run with Lacy for a few miles before the end, so the plan was to start when I saw her coming back(her mile 4) before starting and then catch up to her before the end. My legs were feelin beat from the mileage this week so far but I was able to push rather hard. Saw Lacy about 9.25 miles in and decided to run the rest of the way with her. It was fun and she was stoked to have me there since she was hurtin over the last few miles. I have no idea what my pace was during the first 9.25 miles, but I was feeling it, so I'm gonna chalk it up as threshold miles. We ate cake after and had a beer before heading back home at 1:30 AM. Stopped @ Beto's along the way for some late night burrito action. :) 3 warm, 9.25 miles @ T-pace, 3.85 cool, Total of 16.10 miles, no watch.

AM Feel pretty much fine today. A little tired from only 6 hours of sleep, but I'll just take a nap this afternoon. Gotta love days off! Ran 100S to the farm roads, back to Provo River trail and then a loop thru the hood to make it 10.
10.22 in 1:15:41, avg. 7:24 per mile. PM 2 hours of diggin in the yard again. I hope it looks sweet when we're finished.
