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.

My quads seem to be getting worse.  They're to the point of, "I'm afraid to walk down stairs because I might fall" status.  

PM 

30:00 bike ride around town.

Hoping I could run today, but still too sore.  Not like yesterday, but I think another day off will do me good.

Up 100S and over to Wasatch State Park via less hilly route, then down to the entrance of Dutch Hollow and home.  Nice & easy.

Going to run for 1.5 hours today split into 2 runs.  Want to get the time on my feet, but don't want to push too hard.

5.75 in 45:00

2PM

Did an out & back with a loop and a little extra to make it 45:00 on the farm roads.  Turned into a progressive run of sorts going from an 8:23 pace to 6:50.  Now off to the lake with Lacy & Griffin for beer & sunshine.  What a life :)
