Easy 9 this morning. Knee was still beat up from yesterday's workout and my massage.  I think it's going to take a couple more days for the benifits of the massage to pay off. Pretty normal. Tomorrow I think I'm just going to do 9 and call it good for the week. The guys are doing a tempo down the marathon course - which I would love to do but, I don't think it would be smart. I'll be able to get a good speed workout in during run for kids next week.

Store loop. Picked up the pace for about 3 miles. Having some stomach issues - it seem to be going around our house. It's some kind of bug.

4 miles in the evening on my new Altra Instinct zero drop shoes.

Just took it pretty easy today. Did the store loop AM and run home from the store this evening. Pretty non-eventful. Except I was pretty warm coming home from the store. The weather is really nice. I'm loving it.

9 miles - Great run this morning - really feeling recovered and strong finally.  It's just taken some time to recover from doing that dang 26 a week and 1/2 ago. Nice smooth and fluid mid 6:30's.

Evening 5.5 - Isaac had a concert at Tuachan and I ran from Tuachan to the Church on Bluff. Good solid pace in the low sixes.

Ran the Run 4 Kids 10k this morning - sort of. Wasn't too happy with my time, and how I performed during the race. 36:45 was my time.

Ran home w/ Dave from Coral Conyon. Dave was nice enough to listen to my complaining the whole way home. Thanks Dave.

Great run this morning with James, Dustin, and Bill on the Sg Marathon Course. Started at Veyo and ran to the marathon finish line with that last 9 @ tempo. Dustin, James and I stayed together for the 1st 8 miles until I had to take a VPB - while the Bull took off like a crazy man.

Here's my splits on my tempo:

1 - 5:37

2 - 5:41

3 - 6:06 - Winchester (I hate this hill)

4 - 5:37

5 - 5:25

6 - 5:41

7 - 5:43

8 - 5:35

9 - 5:38

Very happy with this tempo - I think it's much faster than where I was last year at this time. No GU, No Carbs/Sugar for the whole 19.

Ran the RM 50k this morning as a training run for the UV Marathon in June. Went out pretty easy on the first 12 until I realized we had taken a wrong turn right after mile 9 aid station.  Apparently one of the "ranchers" on the course didn't want the race going down his road and moved all the markers and acutally put down arrows to go the wrong way. Luckly we only went 1 mile extra - however, 3 miles of the detour was up hill. After the race there were a ton of people that ended up running up to 36 miles, so we got off easy. 

Other than that the race was great. Once I got on the road I was able to drop the group of guys I was running with. I just kept it in the Mid 6's down to Schivwits (sp) where I met up with Kendra with a slap on the butt. After chatting with Her for a while and finding out I had no chance of getting the 1st place guy I just cruised it on in.

Good day overall - still pretty sore from the miles and a little sick.
