I ran out to Mini Gu and back this morning and I have finally had a good run which was a good positive thing. i felt Like I did about 7 weeks ago before I got that damn cold. I had 5 MP miles with one that was sub 8 pace at 7:58, my average pace was 8:11 with a total time of 50:19. Very nice pace and effort and my lungs seemed good breathing wise. I just have to stay at it these next few months.

See you tomorrow.

Payson park Loop. I felt really tired this morning, nothing like yesterday but I guess I have to take the good with the bad. My average pace was slower at 8:57 with a total time of 55:24, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups.

See you tomorrow.

I ran Payson Canyon this morning. I started at the Ranch and then I ended at Beer Can Flats, I think I will go all the way to the school next week which is 11 miles. All my Miles were MP miles and my average pace was 7:54 with a total time of 1:04:07. My Slpits were like so 8:09, 7:44, 7:46, 7:45, 7:53, 7:47, 7:46, 8:10, I just took it easy on the downhill and I tried not to push it to hard this first time down. Good run.

See you tomorrow.

Usually route this morning but I extended up the river trail a little farther than last week. I knew this morning was going to be a slow pace day with my quads still messed up from the canyon run on thursday, so I just did what I could and worked on my mental game a little. My average pace was 8:56 with a total time of 2:24:02, the last few miles I had to really talk myself through them as my legs were getting pretty darn tired.

See you Monday.
