I wanted to rest my legs today because I will probably be running Timp again tomorrow, so I did 50 minutes of ab work. My kids were really entertained listening to me grunt and teased me for the last 20 minutes. My 10 year old daughter told me "Dad, working out isn't supposed to be hard". ha. She has a lot to learn.

Missed my Monday workout at the gym, so I went tonight ant lifted (chest, shoulders, lats, tri's, bi's).  for 45 minutes. I had a really good session and everything feels really good.

Also, due to some unforeseen circumstances, my wife will be going in for surgery next Monday and will need several weeks of recovery. Because of this I don't think I can run in the TOU marathon on the 18th. So, if anyone wants to go qualify me for Boston at the TOU let me know... haha. Kidding. Seriously, if you're interested in running it let me know.

We ended up cancelling our climb of the South Ridge of Mt. Superior this mroning because of the threat of lightning. That is one place you wouldn't want to be csaught in a storm. No place to hide and nowhere to bail. Totally exposed. I think we made the right decision.

I still wanted to get in some miles, so after the kids went to bed I went to the gym to run the TM. I wanted to do at least 5 and possibly do some speed work if I felt good. I started out at a 9:00 pace, but after two minutes I pushed it to 8:00 and I was feeling really good, so I went to 7:40. I finished the first mile a little over an 8:00 pace. Miles 2 and 3 were 7:40 and I was feeling so good that I cranked it up to 6:20. After mile 4 I couldn't believe how good I felt, so I pushed it to 6:10 and the TM wouldn't go any higher. I did mile 5 at 6:10 and finished 5 miles in 35:30. That is the fastest 5 mile time I have ever had, so I was pretty happy about that. I know I need a lot of work before St. George.

I had a really busy day, but after the kids went to bed I did manage to sneak away and get 3.5 on the TM. Not a super fast pace, but good enough to stretch my legs.

I went out for a run this morning before work on the pavement. The temps were a bit cool at first, but perfect for running. I had a really fun run and kept up a pretty decent pace the whole time. Total time: 1:08.

Today was a really busy day. I won't be able to lift on Monday like I usually do, so I made sure to hit the gym this morning before everything got too crazy. 40 minutes of upper body work, some sweat and then off to the first of three soccer games.
