| Started out my long run with 10 miles keeping the HR under 140, then did 4 at mp (6:56, 6:55, 6:56, 6:49) which felt much better than last week. It then took me a mile to get my HR back under 140 where I kept it for the final 5 miles.

| I woke up excited that it was hill repeat day. I ran easy 1.5 miles to my hill, did hill repeats for 60 minutes and then ran back 1.5 miles easy for a total of 9 miles.
I have missed the feeling you get after a really intense workout that you can only get with speed work.

| 10 very easy miles on the trails this morning. My avg HR was only 129 but my pace was right about what it always is on the trails.

| It was nice having Blake back this morning to run with. He is building his mileage back up so he only ran the first 7+ miles with me then I was on my own. The first 10 miles were nice and easy with a really low HR averaging around 130. I then did 5 at what used to be my mp back when I was faster (6:52, 6:55, 6:52, 6:50, 6:51,). By the end my HR was way up at 176 which shows that this is really about a 10k race pace for me now. Then I finished with 5 getting my HR back under 140.

| I took the scouts skiing Saturday in Southern Utah. We had a great day as it snowed the whole night before so there was a lot of powder which led to some fun skiing and a nice quad workout.
Today I did 10 on the trails easy at a low HR.

| I took a rare midweek day off from running yesterday simply because I was tired. Today I did my weekly hill repeats. 1.5 miles to the hill, 60 minutes of repeats, then 1.5 back for a total of 9 miles.

| 10 at HR under 140 on the trails. It was a bit cooler this morning, but the sun is coming up a bit earlier which in nice for trail running.

| I just wasn't feeling it from the start this morning, but I went for it anyways. I did the first 10 miles with Blake at a low HR and it was easy, but I could tell I wasn't feeling quite right. Then I took off hoping to run 6 at mp. Instead I did 5 but couldn't even hold goal mp for 3: (6:47, 6:57, 7:06, 7:15, 7:43). That was pathetic, but I gave it a strong effort. Then I had to get home and even though I went reallly slow, those last 5 miles hurt. Today was one of those character building days that are probably good to have every now and then, but are no fun.

| It wa 60 degrees, a little breeze, and raining lightly this morning so I was excited to get out on the trails and enjoy the different weather. I put in 10 keeping HR under 140. Legs were still I bit tired fro yesterday but felt fine.

| I ran to work, 5 miles, the long way this morning keeping HR under 140. Then I ran home the same way after work. I love having a shower in my new office. My Garmin gave me a new VO2Max of 52 after the evening run. I don't know what 52 means, but it is a change in the right direction so that means my fitness in improving. Yea me! :)

| Did my weekly hill repeats...1.5 miles to the hill, 60 minutes of hill repeats, and 1.5 miles home for a total of 9 miles. It always feels good to have that workout done for the week.

| 10 miles on the trails this morning keeping HR under 140. I'm getting faster at this lower HR and was moving at a good clip and stepped wrong on a rock and rolled my ankle. It rolled pretty far a scared me good. At first I thought I had really hurt myself but was able to run it off and finish without much discomfort. It doesn't seem to be bad now a few hours latter. A little sore, but no discoloration or swelling. Looks like I may have dodged a bullet this time.

| A really nice, really easy 10 miles on the trails keeping HR under 130. It's amazing how beautiful the world looks when you're running at such a low HR.

| I planned on getting in some mp pace miles this morning, but after 1 mile warm up at 8:07 I started into a faster run and ended up doing 10 more miles more at tempo pace than mp: 6:48, 6:42, 6:47, 6:43, 6:43, 6:42, 6:45,6:48, 6:33, 6:22. I didn't think I could hold 10 miles at that pace but was excited when I finished and still felt pretty good. I guess all that low HR running is paying off.
