SO-LONG PRESIDENT HINKLEY, JOB WELL DONE!!!
This was one tough run, the wind was blowing so hard on my way out I felt like I was standing still. I ran out towards Payson via Salem Canal Road and the wind was right in my face I had it behind me on the way back which was a good thing because my legs were getting tired. My average pace was 8:43 with my heart rate average at 150 total time was 1:02:46. I had 3 miles at tempo pace which is about a minute off my marathon pace those were mile 4 8:34(149), 5 8:17(151), 7 8:33(149). These Neutral shoes I am not sure about, it seems my legs really get beat down when I wear them, maybe they are working different muscles than the stability shoes that I have been wearing for ever... I don't know. I was glad to get this run in, now lets hope the storm isn't to bad tonight so I can get my run in tomorrow, we shall see!!!
See ya tomorrow.

I ran the mini GU corner out and back route, no wind today but the roads were slick and snow packed which made it slow going for the whole run. Total time was 1:06:33 which is 4 minutes slower than yesterday, good thing it was a recovery run. The only problem with today was I had to work harder than I usually to on a recovery run because the roads were so bad, it felt like I was running in place, I guess I can call these junk miles because that is what it felt like. My average heart rate was 144 and my average pace was 9:23 usually at that pace my heart rate is well under 135 closer to 130... I also did the standard Tuesday core training, crunches and push-ups, no leg strength training as I feel that the extra hard running yesterday in the wind and then this difficult running this morning was more than adequate...
Well that is about it I will see you in the morning...

Another difficult running day out there on the slick snowy roads. It was hard getting my footing again so I just took it easy and when I would get to a good stretch of road I would speed up... My legs were pretty dead by the time I finished and I think I need to retire the Kayano 12 Blue shoes that I have been running in, it seems like that every time I run in them my legs just feel hammered, so they are history! My average pace was 9:28 total time was 57:06, I didn't run my usual 7 miles this morning simply for the reason that I got tired of fighting the brown sludge on the roads and so I cut it short.
I consider these junk miles because they did-not feel good at all, but I am glad I completed the run I always consider that an accomplishment this time of year...

The last day of January, woohoo!!! Lets all hope for warmer temperatures in February... I ran out past mini GU corner to the red brick house next to the BYU farm and then turned and headed back to the house. I did some 800 meter tempos, 4 to be exact, and they were all in the 7:05 to 7:15 range pace wise so I counted those 4 miles as marathon pace miles. I felt really good this morning my toe was a little sore when I started out but felt better as I got warmed up. I had a new PR on this course time wise, I am usually around 62 to 63 minutes for this route but today my total time was 58:07 and my average pace was 8:18, with my heart rate average at 148. I was real happy with the run today, I even felt like I could have ran a couple a more miles and that is usually a good sign for me. I hope I am getting close to breaking through another wall and as the temperatures warm I hope for less aches and pains!!! I also did the standard 80 push-ups in sets between the crunches on the rubber ball for core strength, still no leg strength training maybe on Saturday after my long run...
See ya tomorrow

I ran a light recovery run this morning, I felt like I needed a light easy run this morning. I ran the Salem Canal Road to Payson loop, I kept it nice and easy. My average pace was 9:08 with my heart rate at 142, total time was 36:43. That is about it, I didn't feel to well towards the end of the run I started to have bowel issues and I barely mad it back to the house, If you no what I mean!!! I hope to have a little more strength doe tomorrows long run, we shall see.
See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to GU corner and then down to the riverbottoms, hit my 5 mile mark and then headed back towards my home via Salem Canal Road. Passed a few of the Spanish Fork running crew, it was nice to see everyone out this morning a little snowy at first but then it stopped and it was nice... My main goal was to keep my pace at around 8:30 and then throw in some faster ones along the way. I was able to do that, my average pace was 8:28 and my heart rate average was 150 with a total time of 1:25:06, I had marathon pace miles of 7:39(153), 8:10(153), 8:28(149), 8:25(151), 8:11(157), 8:06(156), 8:21(158). The first mile was really my only true marathon pace mile or close to it, the rest were about a minute or so off but it was a good tempo type workout for me and I was really pleased with the effort. I wore my Nimbus 9's today for the third time this week and they felt pretty good, next week I hope to go a little further for my long run and see how I do!!!
I had some great tunes to listen to this morning, Blood Sweat and Tears, Rascal Flats, Peter Frampton, Boston, The Spinners, Hamilton Joe Frank and Reynolds, U2, Kieth Urban, Steppenwolf, Billy Joel, and Led Zepplin!!! They really got me through this morning I am so glad the IPod was invented it helps me get my mind off my troubles...
See you Monday.
