"I don't really need a duck"

Lazy.

5:30 am - Met Rachel and George for our Teusday morning 10 miler.  The temperature outside was brilliant.  Rachel and George did a great job of keeping a nice even pace today.  I never try to push pace on this run but I will gladly cover whatever they are willing to lay out.  Through the tough uphill section (about half way through) we maxed out at 8:20 pace.  At about mile 7 Rachel told me I better start telling some stories since I was the only one that could breathe, so I started off with some "lovely" mother-in-law discussion that transitioned into talking about my dad who had passed away in 2001.  It was a fantastic run and Rachel did a fantastic job of finishing strong.  We clocked the last mile at 7:24. 

6:00am - 8 miles on my lonesome.

5:00 am - 8 fantastic miles on the Urban Trail with great company. What started with 2 a few months ago is now up to 5-7. I did run this on about 3 hours of sleep after installing 2 doors in my basement until about 1 am.

Another zero day - sleep and busyness got me.

5:30 am - 18 very exhausting miles out to Copperton and back. The initial plan was to run out to Copperton and then turn around and finish off with the first 10 miles of the South Jordan Marathon that would net a total of 20 miles. Well my ambition exceeded my abilities and after about 12 miles I decided to cut it short and head straight home. I would imagine that I am still feeling Ogden a bit and the low sleep Thursday didn't help. On a positive note I did get to run a mile with Kelli and Scott and as I headed west along 118th the was a beautiful rainbow at about 6:00 am.
