I ran the Payson Park loop this morning and what a warm morning it was! Crazy warm! I guess summer is finally here! My legs felt okay for most of the run but then with about a mile to go they really hit the wall for some stupid reason but I was glad to get her done this morning as I didn't have a real good training week last week. My average pace was fair at 8:28 with a total time of 1:00:47, after the run I did my upper body weight training and then finished up with some push-ups. My goal for this week is 45 miles plus, so I really have to stay motivated and consistent, no more weeks like last week I have stay with it and get a run in everyday from here on until St. George.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran Payson Canyon this morning with Chad, we ran 3 up and then 3 down on the 3 miles downhill we did a little progression run, 7:46, 7:34, 7:04, I felt pretty good on the downhill section not to good on the uphill. After I returned home I ran out to the Stake Center to cool down for a mile, average pace for the day was 8:13 with a total time of 1:00:03, after the run I did my lower body weight training, just the usual.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran after work today and I was able to get out around 6pm or so and I ran the old Blue Mailbox route. I felt okay but it was kind of breezy at times but I was able to get her done. My average pace was 8:26 with a total time of 1:03:07, I was glad to over come my laziness and get it done today.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to Mini GU via canal road and I didn't feel good at all, my guts hurt from the get go and my legs were pretty dead from the late run last night so my pace was way slow... I hope I haven't pulled a muscle in my stomach cuz that would really tick me off, its been there the last little while but after about a half a mile it goes away but not today. I will have a lite day tomorrow so I'll see how it is then, my average pace was slow at 9:12 with a total time of 55:54. After the run I finished up with some lower body weight training, just the usual exercise's. 

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out past GU and then down into the river bottoms, my strained abdominal pain was okay, it seemed to get better as the run went on so I'm hoping its just a little strain and I will be able to continue to train with no problems,  I then returned home the same way all via canal road... My average pace was okay at 8:31 with a total time of 1:43:00 even, I felt better towards the end and not so good in the middle but it was a good run and I'm glad that I was able to get it done.

See ya Monday
