Out past Mini Gu Corner and back to the house via canal road, Legs felt so tired and I felt like I was running in quicksand. Very Discouraging. My average apce was slow at 9:07 with a total time of 1:05:20, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups. Hopefully I will have a better day tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Very frustrating run again this morning, my poor legs just throbbed the whole way and my pace was so far off that it was pathedic. Maybe I'm still recovering from the Payson Canyon run last week, thats the only thing that I can think of at this point. Average pace was so slow at 9:21 with a total time of 44:03, not good.

See you tomorrow.

I just wanted to loosen up the legs and wake up the fast twitch muscle fibers... HAHA My average pace was 7:57 with a total time of 17:24, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups. Hopefully the old legs will cooperate.

See you tomorrow.

Nebo Half Marathon! I didn't really know what to epect with this race this morning so i took it maile by mile and just tried to saty in it as much as I can. I'll take a sub 1:40:00 Half Marathon and a 2nd Place age group medal any day.

1. 7:27 feeling pretty good.

2. 8:27 Damn Potty break! Cost me a good minute.

3. 7:08 To fast but still feeling pretty good.

4. 7:22 Better pace and feeling okay.

5. 7:30 trying not let things get out of control.

6. 7:13 Speed up here for some reason but still feeling good.

7. 7:22 staying on track and baling hay.

8. 7:28 Same as mile 7. Baling some hay.

9. 7:09 I was really pleased with this mile as it had some flat in it and I was getting a little tired.

10. 7:26 Starting the rollers, hard part of the course no doubt.

11. 7:32 Just hanging in there.

12. 7:20 Mostly flat here but I was trying to bale hay just to make sure I had my goal.

13.7:52 Slowed down because I new I had my goal. I shouldn't have because I would have had a sub 1:38:00. But thats okay. Baby steps.

.48 on my watch for some reason. 7:46.

I'm really happy with this. it was a good 2 minute course PR from last year and a Half Marathon PR form June at the American Fork Half. So pretty good. And I medaled up for and age group placement.

Steady Mobbin baby.

See you Monday.
