I had planned on running with my niece and nephew after work but I got held up at work and then I had parent soccer meeting to attend and I never got out. I know I sound like a broken record, oh well there's always tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

I ran the Payson Park loop but I cut out the rollers and I didn't extend to the park, it was a beautiful morning and it reminded me how great the morning runs can be if you will only give them a chance. I felt okay, better on the inward half than going out and my average pace was 8:36 with a total time of 53:37. After the run I did my upper body weight training, just real lite, one set of each exercise. Ethan has his first High school soccer game today, I can't believe the season is here already it seems like we just finished last year but here we are again.

See ya tomorrow.

Another morning run and I ran the Mini GU Corner loop via canal road, I felt pretty good on the way out but then with a couple miles to go I had a fight with some stomach issues and I lost that fight... After the VPB I really felt horrible my legs were rubbery and I slowed way down to like a 9:15 pace, I could barley move. I felt like before I left that I was coming down with something so I don't know if this is just the start or what but I feel like I have been beat with a bat. My average pace was 8:48 with a total time of 53:48, I hope I'm not getting sick...

 

See ya tomorrow.

I felt a little better this morning so I ran out past Mini Gu corner and then back to the house, I felt pretty good considering the cold that I have been fighting the last few days... My pace was upbeat at 8:16 average with a total time of 50:18, after the run I did some one legged squats, 2 sets of 15. I have the Spectrum 10K next Saturday so that should be fun, I'm not expecting to much just get some tempo miles in and get it done, its my last race of the runners series to get me into SGM. My goal is get back to being more consistent next and the weeks following, I have been way lazy the last month.

See ya Monday.
