Early this morning (i.e., 5:30 am), I ran 5.4 miles at an easy pace over to Sugar House Park to meet up with my friends for a group run.  For our morning run we ran through the neighborhoods up Parley’s and over to 3300 South then we took the Bonneville Shoreline Trail to Foothill Mall before heading back to the park.  The total distance of this run was an even 10.0 miles at a 7:15 minutes-per-mile pace (two miles of this distance at marathon pace).  I then jogged 3.85 miles back home taking the most direct route from Sugar House Park.  Following some breakfast and a short nap, I slipped on my Vibram 5 Fingers and jogged 0.85 of a mile over to Smith’s to pick up some groceries and back.

While watching my Broncos get completely destroyed by my least favorite division rival (i.e., the Raiders), I completed my non-running workout of 300 sit-ups and 30 push-ups.  With the way the Broncos are playing, the Jazz regular season could not start soon enough (i.e., this Wednesday against the Nuggets).

Thanks Allie and I'm starting to get a little nervous for Sunday's race, so I must be ready to go!!! Yep, the first of 82 for our (i.e., assuming that everyone that lives in Utah is a fan) Jazz tonight!
