Easy 5 this morning out in the desert reserve.

Ran with the club from the Park to Web Hill then down a single track trail I hadn't been on before to the paved bike trial, across the Virgin River, Santa Clara river and back to the park. Total run was about 9.25 miles.

Cruised the first miles until we hit "THE HILL" and I thought I was going to blow chunks the last 200M of the 1 mile hill. My legs were feeling pretty heavy and my body temp was really heating up. Then took it easy down the the bike path and across the river. We all started picking it up a bit about 100M before we turned on 700S. from Main st. Then from there we basically just chased down Clyde for a little more than a mile.

I'm feeling pretty good. However, even though my weight is dropping I still feel heavy when I run. What if I get down to my goal weight and I still feel the same way? Would that mean I have some psycho-mental weight issue illness?

Hey Steve,

Good run tonight Steve. You were a lot stronger on the hill compared to the last time we did it, also you were cruising on the way back. I also feel like I'm a heavy runner, even though I have been losing the weight. One goal I have over the winter is to get stronger through my core area. Maybe if I start lifting I will begin to feel like I am carrying around a little muscle compared to the feelings of running with a little fat on my body still.

Good job on the run last night Steve. You handled the hill good. However, I was suprised to see you at then end. I pushed it pretty good that last mile or so and when I got to the park and looked back to see you guys I was suprised to see that you were the one closest to me. Good job. Hows everything feeling? If you keep running strong like that you'll be looking for a great 2007 race year.
