I ran Loafer Canyon road all the way up to the gate and then back to the house I ran some with the Spanish Fork Group, I didn't feel good at all and my back was still really tight but I stayed with it and was able to get her done. My average pace was slower than last week at 9:30 with a total time of 1:14:20, my 3 MP miles were, 7:39, 7:53, 7:58... I ran pretty easy on the way down because of my back, I finished up with my upper body weight training and then some push-ups.

See ya tomorrow.

Usual run with the SF group down Payson Canyon, I felt pretty darn good and I was able to get in a pretty good rhythm with Tom and then on the lower section Dan and Tom dragged me along. My average pace was the best yet on this course at 7:43 with a total time of 1:24:53, my MP miles were 7:53, 7:38, 7:22, 7:30, 7:22, 7:41, 7:54,  Rollers, 7:50, 7:35, 7:47. I felt a lot better on the Lower portion with the rollers than I have on the previous runs so that is a positive thing, I finished up with my upper body weight training and then some push-ups.

See you tomorrow.

Nice recovery run out to Mini Gu Corner and then back to the house via canal road, I felt really good considering yesterdays run. My average pace was 8:38 with a total time of 52:59, I just have to keep at it and not let the laziness keep me from my goals. It's so hard though.

See you tomorrow.

Long run out Past Gu Corner and then down into the river bottoms, I am really pleased with this run. I felt like I could have gone more and I love that feeling after a long run, and my pace was quicker towards the end which means that I'm getting stronger. My average pace was 8:38 with a total time of 2:28:34, its been a great week of training now I just have to build on this.

See ya Monday.
