| | Had a work party today that ended with a 2.5 hour flag football game. I decided to play, even though my knee has been a little sore. It felt pretty good when we started, and I figured I could quit at any time. I also planned on taking it slow, but after I caught my first pass the adrenaline kicked in and I pushed it hard. It was a lot of fun, and I probably did push too hard. My knee was really sore at the end, but I had been running at almost full speed, so I felt pretty good about it. It was also very fun to see some of the guys in the office nearly come to blows because everyone was so competitive. Oh yeah, it was supposed to be flag football, but it quickly evolved into full on tackle, and I now have several bruises, but that's alright. I had to burn off all of the BBQ I ate at the party. |

| | My knee actually felt really good today, which shocked me because of the football game yesterday. I had absolutely no pain in my knee this evening, so I decided to go for a short easy run. I did feel a small amount of pain on the last mile, so I decided to quit. I am happy though that my knee is coming around. This is the furthest I have run since the marathon 3 weeks ago. |

| | Did an easy 3 tonight after the kids went to bed. My knee is feeling good and I have no pain. I think I will take it easy for 3-4 more days and then test it out later next week. |

| | 30 minutes of lifting (arms and chest) while listening to LDS conf. Motab just doesn't seem to get the juices flowing like some on my iPod, but maybe I was edified, so the trade off was worth it. |

| | Went to the gym and lifted for 30 minutes (core, lats, shoulders) and then I ran 4 miles on the treadmill. |

| | Golfed 18 holes at Thanksgiving Point. We had a great time, although I did tweak my knee a bit looking for balls, but nothing serious. I took the dog out and got in a mile before it got dark, and it was COLD. |

| | Decided to run a little harder tonight to test my knee, and I really felt it at the end. It was sore, but didn't hurt too much. I am definitely not 100%, but it feels good enough to keep working out, so I will keep taking it slow. I am going to get into the mountains this weekend to climb something. It was been waaay too long. I am also interested to see how my knee feels with some elevation gain. |

| | Went to the gym and lifted for 35 minutes (arms, chest). I wasn't feeling all that great today, and didn't have a lot or energy. I think I am going to get out for an early morning hike tomorrow to test out my knee. I haven't climbed anything since Kings Peak on 9/4/09. |

| | My first 'real' test on my knee since the marathon. I climbed Big Baldy peak near Timpanogos. It is just under 9,000 feet, but looks like a small foothill next to Timp. Did over 3k elevation gain in 3.5 miles, so it was a great test. I wore my brace and used trekking poles, and on the ascent my knee felt fine, although it was a little tight and just a touch sore. The summit was COLD, but the views were fantastic. The downhill was definitely harder on my knee and I could feel a slight pain, although nothing serious. It was also a tad tight and stiff. I think the poles helped a lot. It felt really good to get out finally, and I think my knee is imporving every day. It is still not 100%, but I will just take it easy for at least another month. |

3 easy miles on the TM. My calves are SORE! I'm going to get back into the mountains later in the week for sure. I am getting soft. At least my knee is feeling a lot better. It is not sore at all.

| | Golfed 18 at Thanksgiving Pt for work and had a great time. The weather was perfect. I did also manage to do 4 on the TM, and all body parts are feeling great. No complaints. This has been a really good week and I think I am getting closer to 100%. |

| | Did 4 easy miles on the TM while watching college football. Nothing hurts. I'm still going to wait at least a week to do anything serious, although I will be climbing Mount Olympus this week. |

| | Did an hour of weights at the gym with some friends in my neighborhood. It was a great night, and I had a really good workout. Did arms, chest, lats, and shoulders. Also did 15 min of core. |

| | 4 easy miles on the TM. It's easy, but it makes me sweat, gets my heart beating, and doesn't make anything hurt. |

| | Did a short two mile hike with the fam, and then did another 3 on the TM later in the day. I really wanted to climb something, but it just didn't work out today. |

| | No miles today, however I did make it to the gym tonight to lift for 40 minutes, and I had a fantastic workout. Did upper body and core. I had to burn off the pizza and cake that I ate at the Halloween party tonight. |

| | I decided that I wanted to test out my knee tonight, so I went for 80 minutes on the TM, which is the most I have done since the marathon. My knee felt great and no soreness after, so I think I am good to go and test it on something more difficult. I'm sick of the TM. |

| | Five Guys burger for lunch, and a Banbury Cross donut for dessert... FAT! Did 4 miles on the TM again. I will get out this weekend. This was one of the busiest weeks I have ever had. Not much time to get out and do anything. Bla. |
