An absolutely beautiful day! I was not going to run but at 3:30 I finally broke down and went for a short run. It was 59.....wow! I can tell already that I am going to have to get conditioned to running in then heat again.

My legs are pretty tired and didn't want to do anything. I went out @ 9:00 pace for a bit over 1/2 mile then pushed it going down a slight incline...oh that felt good but it didn't last long just tried to hold 6:00 for a bit. That only lasted about 1/4 mile but it felt good but I was too tired to try and push any farther at that pace.....I only held a 7:54 pace for the 2 1/4. I plan on taking it pretty easy the next couple of weeks then it is time to start focusing on the Ogden Marathon.

A great run today. I had an appointment at Dammeron Vallet this morning so I decided to take a run from up that direction. I started at 1 mile above Diamond Valley. The top of the last hill coming across Dammeron Valley. I ran to the market @ Green Valley. Just 1/2 mile short of a half marathon. My pace felt great working on the down hills. I held a 7:18 average pace for the run. I walked portions of the run for 30-60 seconds to recoup from the faster pace that I was running and still maintained the 7:18 pace. I ran on the bike trail roller coaster. If I had run the highway I know that I cuold have cut at least a minute or two off the run. Projected out the additional 1/2 mile this would have been a 1:35 half marathon, 5 minuts faster than my race on Saturday...it felt great.

splits: 7:36/ 6:18/ 6:31/ 7:02/ 7:50/ 7:36/ 6:42/ 7:44/ 8:01/ 7:33/ 7:20/ 7:08/ 7:18

No running yesterday due to traveling to Ogden. Today I didn't run but I snow shoed at 8000 elev for 3 hours..stop and go. I was above Midway, Utah scoping out a piece of property for a client. Light rain and in the clouds.

Mild temps and light rain/fog. Today felt really nice with the cloud cover and slight rain. I ran up to St. George Running Center and back. I really didn't plan on going so far and paid the price for the last 4 miles. My legs were very beat up by then but I made it home...LOL

8:45 pace
