I ran the Payson Park loop this morning and it wasn't a good run at all, it was pretty much a death march and the last two miles were brutally tough! I was having stomach issues the last 2 miles or so and I barley made it home if you know what I mean, not a pretty sight! My legs were just so dead today and I don't know why, maybe it was the up tempo type run on Saturday but that wasn't even that big of deal because I was pretty much the same as during the week, my average pace that is, so I really don't know why it was such a pain this morning.  My average pace was way slow at 8:54 with a total time of 1:03:27, I finished up with some upper body weight training and then some push-ups, the strength training was even tough, I must be coming down with something or it was just a bad day! Maybe tomorrow will be better.

See ya tomorrow.

I meet Chad over to Peteetneet school in Payson and we ran up Payson Canyon to Beer can Flats and then back to the school, just over 6 miles round trip. The last two miles coming out of the canyon were 7:30 spot on so it was a pretty good workout, really good uphill and then some pretty good downhill. After I got home I cooled down a mile out to the Stake Center and back, average pace for the run was 8:28 with a total time of 1:03:03, after the run I did my lower body weight training. It was a great run and I felt so much better than yesterday, which is a good thing!

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out Past Mini GU and half way up power house and then back to the house all via canal road... I did not feel good today and the last mile or so was like a death march, my average pace was slow at 8:51 with a total time of 1:03:49. I think the shoes that I wore have had their day they have over 300 miles on them and it seems that when they get that many miles on them my legs really start to feel it, old age sucks! After the run I did a light lower body weight training to finish up.

See ya tomorrow.

So I didn't even get out this morning, I was going to go at like 5am but I slept through my alarm and then I didn't have enough time to run before my golf that I had planned so I ran nothing today... kind of a lousy week of training  but I did get some hill work in but I need to make sure on Saturday"s that I don't schedule anymore golf unless its in the afternoon, it screws everything up as far as my long run goes. Back at it Monday!

Later.
