I ran out to the old BYU farm just pass the red brick house and then turned around and headed back to my house. Legs were a little dead still so I decided to just take it easy and enjoy the scenery, it was a lot warmer this morning and it felt nice. Its suppose to be nice all the way through the week so that is very exciting, its always nice to have the warmer weather. My average pace was 9:06 with my heart rate at 140 total time was 1:04:09, I still have a bit of a cough so I'm thinking maybe the dead legs are a result of not quite getting over my cold and flu yet but It is nice to see that my wife is finally getting up and around she was really having a rough time there for the last little while...

Well that's about it kind of just a boring recovery run, nothing to exciting!

I look forward to these recovery days now. Even though they don't seem to do much they really do help me get ready for the next big day. I hope you get over the flu thing soon. I feel as though I may finally be getting the bug that has gone through my family. My luck may finally be running out. Keep on truckin!
