8 miles today. Started out with 15 in mind but 3.5 miles in I get a call from truck so I had to double back guess I am happy with half. 8 miles @ 7:40 m/m in the Sunday Sun yay my legs were feeling some fatigue but still fell right into a good pace and responded well.

8 am milles on the elliptical. Had some time after my first truck this morning so I hit the elliptical I have stashed in my office lol good way to keep things moving mid morning

6 pm miles on the track. Tiff and I scurried up to the track after I got home from work. She cross trained while I hit the track. Tiff told me she was only planning on 45 min so I was figuring I could get in 6 without her having to wait too long. I wasnt planning on anything too fast so it was a surprise things went the way it did. 

Easing into it with a 7:51 then not sure what happened the next two were 7:29 then 7:21 followed by 7:16 and 7:07 finishing with a 6:49 not sure where it came from but i will take it

10.5 am miles on the elliptical(90min) taking advantage of waiting time at the warehouse to get my workout on. Having the elliptical there is making a difference

5.5 miles on the track at the gym. Went with Tiff to get a little more in. Got some good solid miles. My fitness level is getting better,it is easier to hold 7:10 to 7:15 pace more consistently without feeling over stressed

19 miles today

6 this morning on the elliptical. Had planned on running this morning but had a truck call and need reloaded so I went in for that and jumped on the machine while waiting for him to come back.

13 late afternoon miles. Came home and did a couple chores,changed then hit the road. Headed out on my b!#ch route,incorporating some decent hills all through it. I tried to keep a steady easier pace,I have been doing faster stuff lately I wanted to just absorb the mileage and let my body do their thing. 13 miles @ 7:57 pace. Hills and all I think this is one of more diverse honest routes I have.

Ramping things up Marathon training getting into something bigger. Still setting my sights on sub 3. Big task so I know I need to focus and make the work count. If any body has ideas all input and advice is welcome thanks :)

Hoping my elliptical miles aren't skewing my mileage too much. I try to keep it realistic with feel and time for what I think it honestly works out to

6 am miles running circles at the gym this morning with Tiff, Kept it relaxed and easy.

6.5 pm miles on the streets. Set out just after dark expecting it to be a little colder than it was. By the time I got to mile 2 I knew I had way over dressed lol but I just kept going. I wasnt looking for any speed records just a solid evening run. 

This is a 3 parter race report in the middle

3 miles warm up before the Salt Lake City Track Club 10 k then 6.2 miles @ 6:49 which if I work it right the next few months will be my marathon pace for maybe des news. Finished off with a 2 mile cool down

Met up with Mike before the race and decided we would take it out decent speed then work together on the way back alternating every 1/2 mile or so. I wasn't sure what to expect. Was figuring on somewhere in the 42:30 range. I am sure the wind didn't help too much. I finished at 42:43 so not disappointed at all and Mike was right behind me so it was a good overall effort.
