Bloomington Drive loop. Very slow...legs are so tight even after stretching. Can't wait for a massage on Thursday...try to get these legs feeling loose. I have a long way to go to get ready for bryce Canyon next month, and th 50 mile Maui run.

Beautiful cool morning in June. I can't believe the great cool weather we are getting this year......anything to prolong the heat!

I ran on the path to the bridge at I-15 over past Flying J and then home....very slow...legs are so tight. I havd to keep stretching along the way.

Tonaquint-DC loop. Still very slow going. IT Band is hurting and that is slowing me way down....going to April for a massage this afternoon...hopfully that will get things going in the right direction.

Met the famous April for a massage this afternoon. WOW, that was fun!...NOT  I am so glad I finally went in. The pain was not very fun but the result is awesome! My hams and calfs feel like they are supposed to feel...not big hard knots. I can't wait to get out and do some running. Of course stretching will be a major concern from here on out.

Well I needed a good long run to boost me up. I started at the mid point of the SG Marathon. I held back most of the time with a few miles under 7:00 pace. I didn't want to undo the massage I had 2 days ago. I ended up running that half marathon in 1:40. Not too bad for taking it easy. I then headed off for home and decided to extend out to Sun River to meet up with my wife and her dad and siblings. They were walking from Sun River to our home. Then it was a nice leasure walk on the new trail with them and finished out the last 1/2 mile with a 7:00 pace to end it up. Overall I felt pretty good about  things the legs feel a lot better and I know they will improve with good stretching. I did get blisters on both big toes...running with new shoes...need to figure that one out. A beautiful cool morning in June, the misters even turned on every once and a while...great day in Zion.
