tried to run some intervals in BF canyon, but there was this HUGE wind out of the west pushing up the canyon. It sucked the lifeblood right out of me running into it on the first interval, and all my desire to continue running. I am starting to wonder what the point is of this? very dejected, ready to quit.

mile 1 "downhill" into the wind: 6:02.
mile 2 uphill with the wind: 5:58
mile 3 downhill into the wind 6:37, no typo.
mile 4 uphill with the wind 6:01

I haven't run yet today , but I figured out how to change my blog nickname to my real name without crashing the blog server. I was quite proud of myself and plan to put this on my resume under "computer skills". Now I am going to try to learn mysql and php and work on my on line biochemistry textbook I have been working on part time.  It will be a free open access set of recorded lectures, text, handouts, problems, quizzes and recorded problem solving tutorials. I have already done this for a distance education general chemistry class I teach on line, but I am lacking the php/mysql skills to make my site dynamic so am still reliant on UENs blackboard for data management. Maybe someone skilled at this stuff can help me a little when I get stuck (Steve Piccolo?)

 

noon- 6 easy on the indoor track in the FF. just the right time of day for "noon time social hour" on the track, where the local USU lady walkers walk four-five abreast around the track talking, oblivious to people trying to run.the lanes are clearly marked from the inside "running" jogging", with the outside lane marked "walking".  But the noon time walkers are too busy talking to notice those markings I guess. And it is important to be next to each other for most efficient talking. And majority rules I guess.

sick of the weather here so I drove to Bear lake and ran on the north side where it is straight, flat and nobody is around. elevation is1400 feet higher making a good workout. 1 mile 7:45, then 7 miles averaging 6:28, then 1 mile cooldown.
