| I went to the track with Kent and Jeff Tulley. Tim and Martin were there waiting. They ran intervals. My legs hadn't recovered from the relay so I just ran easy laps around the track. There is no sense in risking injury this close to the marathon. |

| Tuesday 2000 N route with Kent, Wayne, and Lyle. The other three of us we're still a little beat up from the relay and Kent started pulling away up the hill. I didn't want him to think relay runners were wimpy so surged to catch him then worked to stay with him to the top. After going down the hill in Lindon, I spent the rest of the run chasing Wayne, with the others behind us a bit. It was a good training run. |

| Water tank hills with Kent and Jeff. I pushed the hills pretty hard but and was just a little slower than last week, 15:52. I'll blame it on the headwind and running with a headlamp in the dark. The last fast half mile was at 6:12/mi pace. My fitness is down from 3 years ago, but it's at a high point this year. I feel pretty strong and confident as I approach the St. George marathon in 2.5 weeks.

Mouth of Provo Canyon to Trefoil and back 20-miler with Kent and Larry (who went a little shorter). I felt pretty good through 16. The last 4 were hard. I skipped lunch on Friday because of a work meeting then worked late. I ended up not eating dinner (a few pieces of pizza and some bread sticks) until after 8:00pm. I took a couple of gels during the run, but I still think I ran out of gas at the end. At least I hope so. If not, I'm just not in marathon shape and the latter miles of the St. George marathon next week aren't going to be too pleasant. I prefer to think (hope) that if I properly taper, carbo load, hydrate and not go out too fast that I'll be able to do significantly better on race day. And I can always count on race day magic for at least a little...magic.
