I ran out to GU via canal road, it was a death march from the get go! The plan was 10 plus but I knew after 3 miles that that was out of the question, on the way back I had stop every few miles to let my legs recover. I don't know what that was all about but it was pretty darn discouraging, I'm glad I was at least able to run the 8 miles. My average pace was way slow at 8:59 with a total time of 1:12:08. Another horrible week of trianing again, I really am struggling!
See ya Monday. |

I ran out to Mini GU and then back to the house all via canal road, everything felt good on the way out but on the way back it wasn't so good, the last mile was like a death march! Average pace was 8:42 with a total time of 52:55, I won't be able to run in the morning cuz I'm having my blood drawn for a life Insurance policy, and they said I couldn't run until after so it will have to be and after work run.
See ya tomorrow. |

Well I thought I had better get off my lazy butt and get atleast another run in this week, I have really lost my mojo for some reason and I don't know how to get it back! I ran out to Gu and then back to the house, I felt pretty good going out and then on the way back my legs got a little tired but not to bad, my average pace was 8:39 with a total time of 1:09:50... Anybody out there have any suggestions on how to get my mojo back, any body....
See ya Monday. |

| I ran the Payson park loop this morning but I didn't extend down into the park, I felt okay but not great but I was glad to get out of bed and finally do it right for a change. My average pace was 8:38 with a total time of 53:48, after the run I did my upper body weight training and then finished up with some push-ups. See ya tomorrow.

| I ran out to Mini GU via canal road this morning and my legs felt pretty darn good this morning, my pace seemed pretty easy and it was really enjoyable for a change. My average pace was 8:30 with a total time of 51:45, after the run I did my lower body weight training; squats, one legged squats, leg presses and calf raises. One set of each for right now and then as I get stronger I'll get it back to 2 sets for each. A good run this morning and a great way to start out the day. I guess my daughter Abby is thinking pretty hard about going on a mission for the church, I will support her no matter what she decides, she's just a great kid and I am so proud of her!!! See ya tomorrow.

| I just ran along Canal road this morning, my legs were pretty dead from the get go and I know it was from the leg strength training yesterday and the plan was for a liter day today anyway so I took it. My average pace was slow at 8:55 with a total time of 46:21, I finished up with some upper body weight training on the Bowflex and then some push-ups. I might try some hills tomorrow but I will have to see how my legs are recovering and then go from there. See ya tomorrow.

The plan today was to run Harrys Hill and of course the one day that I decide to run it there is a hurricane force head wind, but I went for it anyway because I am a crazy runner and thats what we do! So I headed out to the base of Harry's and then up to the Mailboxes over to Loafer canyon road and then back to canal road and then back to the house, by the time I was done the old legs were pretty hammered. My average pace was pretty bad for this route at 9:09 with a total time of 1:05:27, the combination of the wind and the hills just really did me in but I stayed with it and I am glad I got her done! No lower body strength training this morning for the simple fact that I think the hills and the wind were more than enough.
See ya tomorrow. |

I ran out past Gu and then down into the riverbottoms, the plan was to run 10 miles and then the next few weeks add a couple miles to my long runs each week. My average pace was pretty steady at 8:30 and my total time was 1:25:41, I felt okay through out but I didn't feel wonderful either but it was a good run and it was a pretty good week of training for a change, at least for me anyway. The only time I stopped was to fuel up and I think I drank to much at Gu when I was on my way back but pretty good for the most part.
See ya tomorrow. |

| I didn't want to fight the wind today so I opted for the Elliptical and the treadmill, started with 3.10 on the elliptical and then I finished up with 4.10 on the treadmill. I ran 3x.25 pick-ups at 7:30 pace and with a 200 meter jog between each interval. My average pace on the treadmill was 8:32with a total time of 35 minutes, I finished up with some upper body weight training and then some push-ups. All in all a pretty good workout and a good start to the week. see ya tomorrow.

I was able to find some time after work to get out and get a run in, I headed out about 4:30 or so and I ran out to Mini Gu and then back to the house it was starting to get cold by the end of the run, but not to bad. Average pace was 8:35 with a total time of 52:48, no time for strength training I'm just glad I got a run in!
See ya tomorrow. |

I have really fallen off the mat so to speak! My training has been rotten. I have offically lost my mojo and I don't know how to get it back! I am really disappointed in myself, I need some advice...

| I have really been dealing with a bad back the last week, that is the main reason for not running... I was able to do 3 miles on the elliptical and then 2.15 miles on the treadmill, it was still bothering me some but I'm hoping with a little activity it will calm down. It's been a long time since it hurt this bad, a good 10 years or so. I hope its just a bad stretch and it hasn't totally gone on me, I guess time will tell on that! My pace was real slow on the treadmill, 9:18 average, I just couldn't get me legs to turn over any quicker than that with my back the way it is but at least I was able to do something today so I don't feel like a complete slug! See ya Monday.

Between my back and the fact that I have been sick the last few days I wasn't real motivated about getting out this morning and then to top it all off it snowed again last night! I guess we need it though:) I ran the Payson park loop but I didn't extend down into the park, the roads were tolerable but slick in some places. My average pace was way slow at 9:01 and my total time was 56:15, my back was really bothering me today my turn over was slow and then I just had no energy from my cold that I have had the last few days. But I was glad that I got out and with the SG half in just 20 days I thought I had better start running again:)
See ya tomorrow. |
