I ran out to Payson and ran the payson park loop and extended down into the Park, I was really tender in my lower abdomin again but it was tolerable after I got loosened up. I'm beginning to wonder if Its ever going to heal or is there something else wrong, its been a frustrating injury. I was okay speed wise but I didn't feel real great during the run but then again I haven't ran for 3 days so I can't expect to much. My aveage pace was 8:36 with a total time of 1:01:48, after the run I did some upper body weight training and then finished up with some push-ups. I wish I could figure this darn thing out, It doesn't do any good to lay off the running because it doesn't seem to make it any better, so the plan is to be more consistant with the running and then see how it goes.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out past Mini Gu via canal road, I felt okay going out but then on the way back I really had a hard time, my legs were so dead the last few miles were a death march! I'm glad I got out though because I need to get more consistent, my average pace was slow at 9:02 with a total time of 54:58. Abdomen was okay, better than yesterday, but the old legs were not, they were really dead.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out GU Corner and then back to the house via canal road, in the middle I did a 2 mile pick-up and those were 7:50, 7:39. Felt pretty good on each on so that was a pleasant surprise and I felt a little better today which was a good sign, I'm still fighting trying to get my Mojo back. My average pace was 8:25 with a total time of 1:07:58, next week the goal is to start doing some morning runs again and try and be more consistent. Tomorrow is my daughter Abby's Mission farewell, she heads off on Wednesday so that will be a tough couple of days for me as a Dad, I'm really proud of her and she is going to make a great missionary!!! She's all grown up and its hard to believe, time has flown by so darn fast.

See ya Monday
