Personal:

I decided to join to hold myself accountable for my training and because I love learning from others running experiences.  I just started running a little over a year ago and have a lot to learn.  I work fulltime as a Manager of Telecommunications for Intermountain Healthcare and go to school online through Weber State University.  If you want to know more check out my blog: www.runningfortrevor.blogspot.com

Half marathon recovery day number 7. 7.5 mi in the orchards of Santaquin 7:28 pace. Windy out but not as bad as yesterday and it was kind of sunny! :-) First day since the half that I've ran a mile under a 7:30 pace. Not forcing anything and just letting my body naturally control the pace. Feeling good!

Upper body weights

3 min elliptical - every single treadmill was taken....so many walkers.....so annoyed...

8 miserable miles on the treadmill with 4 x 30 second strides at 6:00 pace.  Crappiest run I've had in awhile but I'm pretty sure it's just because I haven't ran on the treadmill in awhile.  I could have sworn my device was at a 4% incline even though it read 1.5...

PM:  3.5 easy

9 mile orchard loop with Jen, 7:13 pace.  I have no idea why we were moving faster than normal but we just naturally picked it up once we started talking about racing plans for the rest of the year.  Last four miles were sub-7 and felt good.  Half Marathon recovery day #9 and feeling strong.  I am planning to take the rest of the week easy with a brisker long run in Phoenix on Saturday. :)

20 minutes weights + planks/pushups

25 min lower body strength training

20 min elliptical - my legs were wobbly after the ST and I didn't want to make a fall off the treadmill type of scene so this seemed like the safest bet....

6 treadmill mi, 7:30ish pace, 2-3.5% incline.  Felt oddly incredible running on the mill this morning...weird?!?

I've gained a good 3lbs since the half which is no big deal, I think I earned my "fat & happy" days but seriously if you haven't tried cookie butter yet just say no!!!

PM:  4 easy, 8 min pace.

Easy in Salem, 7:52 pace.  Testing out a new route for Jen's track team this morning which was a nice break from the normal hilly route.  Jen does not own a garmin and just guesses on route distances when she drives around town.  This is the 2nd time we've done this and shes been off by about a mile both times.  Poor track kids have no idea. haha I love it!

Orchard loop with Jen easy, 7:24 pace.  32 degrees with no wind is absolutely perfect running weather!

Off to Phoenix this afternoon to pace my friend Emily the last 16-18 miles of the marathon tomorrow.  Best of luck to everyone racing this weekend!

Had the opportunity to pace my friend Emily for the last 18 miles of the Phoenix marathon.  It was such an awesome day and I am so glad I got to be there.  She ended up finishing in 3:17 which was a PR for her.  I am really happy with the way I held up for the 18 miles.  I felt really great the entire time and was able to focus 100% on Emily.

Definitely feeling the marathon itch after talking to everyone after the race!  The course was awesome and I would love to run it next year.
