hiked up rattlesnake canyon to the top of wellsvilles. I can't believe Cody and Joe run that. I should have read this entry more carefully before going up there. At least I had long pants, my poor son's legs look like he got attacked by a cougar or something. I wouldn't try running this for anything.

A student in my biochemistry class told me about this race yesterday, put on at USU by ROTC so I decided to see where I am at in the 5K. Race is through campus on sidewalks, quite a few turns, but a flat pretty fast course. Pretty good turnout and for a good cause. Garmin mile splits were 5:56, 5:54, 6:07, and then about 6:15 for 0.1. I am pretty happy with this race effort since my foot hurts bad and I haven't raced since beginning of June. I won the "over 35" age group (did I mention I will turn 50 in 12 days) and got a 25 dollar gift certificate to Indian Oven, a one month family membership to Sports Academy and some other miscellaneous swag for my efforts. My student beat me by 30 seconds to take overall while a 32 year old guy from Idaho came in a few seconds ahead of me.   I'll have to try to get even in another race!

spent so much time repairing the integrator for my thermal conductivity gas chromatograph so we could do some oxygen consumption experiments that I didn't have time to run.  the good news is the integrator works again and we were able to successfully make our measurements. for the loyal readers of my blog this will be very exciting news.

8x400 USU track w/200 recoveries with Carol Rowe and a new running partner we have at USU named Kristin. Carol pushed the pace hard after I went out on a slower first lap. 84, 82, 81, 81, 80, 80, 80, 80 seconds. good to have some fast training partners. nothing else exciting except I turned 50 today.

11 miles @7:43 pace. my lower calves were hurting which is troublesome so i think I will take a couple days off to let them recover. the PF is really bad. Carol showed me how to tape my foot for PF so hopefully that will help in the future. I think it is time to start incorporating a day or two of water running into my regime too.

this is the workout Paul Wolf and Carol came up with for today: USU track 2 x 200, 1 x 400, 1 x800 , repeat 3 times with recovery times equal to the intervals. it was fun.

I was joined for my one mile interval workout on the east bench by one of my biochem students, it was great to have a faster person to push me. we ran 4 x 1mile with about 90 second recoveries on my one mile course by Lundstrom park. We played rabbit where I took a 20 second head start over my student and he still caught me, passed me, and beat me on each interval by 10 seconds. My splits were 6:01, 6:01, 6:08, and 5:59 while Thomas' were about 5:30 each.
