AM - Got up and went out for a 10 miler. Great morning. Waited for the sun to come up before I left.  Temps were nice, normal pace.

 

PM - Went out late afternoon for 6 miles in the dirt. Pushed the pace on and off. It always feels good to get moving on the trails at a steady pace. Felt pretty good - spent a bit of time in the evening stretching.

AM - Met-up with the club at the Conflu at 5:30. Ended up pacing Amber G. for the first two- she wasn't feel to well so she droped and I did the rest of the tempo solo. Nothing too exciting - more like a tin-man tempo pace. 8 miles.  

Planning on getting in some more miles this afternoon.

AM - Decided not to get up with the guys to run this morning. We have some sick kids and last night my immune system was feeling run down so I decided to sleep a little longer and see if that would help.  I ended up waking up with my tongue and throat swollen - my body is fighting something.  I got up help the kids to school, loaded up on Natures Immunity and started feeling better by late morning. 

Went out and ran Navajo to the top of the hill and back.  7.5 miles from the house (15 total). Solid pace, however I could tell I'm not feeling 100%.  Glad I got out and got it done.  After I'm done at the store tonight I'm going right to bed.

I've also decided not to race the half this weekend. I've only had two solid weeks of training, my immune system is low, and my SI Joint has started acting up again.  The perfect storm for a frustrating race.  That is...unless I wake up feeling amazing Sat morning.

AM - No Run. 

PM - Went out with Aaron this evening. Met-up at the Dixie Track and went out for a 8.25 loop over on the River Trail. Steady Pace.  Came back to the track and did 10x200m.  It was slow moving at first but I finally got the legs going after the first few.  10.5 Miles Total

AM - Got out a bit earlier - 6 miles easy.  I can't believe how cold it is in the morning still with it being 60F during the day.

PM - No Run.  Got stuck at the SG Half Expo, really busy all day, ended up not getting to bed until 1:30-2:00am. Super Tired and my back is all tight from standing all day on the concrete floor.

AM - Got up feeling exhausted from yesterday. Got the kids all ready to go watch Kendra run the 5k this morning.  She ended up doing great with at 21:40 - something.  She was really happy with her improvement from last year's 23 min.

It was also great watching the race team come in and finish the Half.

Got home around 1pm and crashed for about 3 hours.  I was so tired I could bearly function.  I ended up waking up feeling pretty good and decided to go out and do my 20 miles.

PM - Ran from the house up to the Soccer Park in Washington and back.  It ended up being a nice evening. I kept going from long sleeve to short sleeve - I was hot then I was cold.  Nice steady run, felt pretty good - 6:38 ave for the 20.  Really happy I got out and got it done.
