St. George Running Center - Run For Life.

Crazy Work-out day. I probably over did it a little.

4 miles in the morning easy.

2.5 around the park before my run with Clyde & Bill.

7.7 with Bill & Clyde from the St. George Finish line to the T-Bone Trailhead and back to Finish Line. Felt good most of the way. Had some side aches that were causing me some problems about 3.5 miles into the run but, focused on my breathing and it went away.

Kept a steady pace coming back into St. George and across the Blvd. Then, Clyde decided to step it up with about 1.2 miles left. I don't think I've run that fast in a long time. Clyde has this way of just shifting into overdrive so fast it's scarry. Luckly he hasn't been feeling as saucey as normal and it didn't last for too long or I would still be laying in the gutter on the side of the road. Over all I felt pretty good about the run minus the side aches.

1 mile this evening "Always On The Run".

Ran the Spectrum 10k run from Snow Canyon to Ivans. The temp. right before the race dropped 10 degrees and they started about 15 min late so I wasn't warmed up like I would of liked to have been. I felt good about the first two miles and I was with Clyde the first mile or so until he did one of his speed racer surges. Then I started having problems with my legs. My hams and my calf muscles started to feel pretty tight. Around mile 3 Dustin passed me and told me to stick with him but I just couldn't move my legs fast enough. However, aerobically I felt just fine. I ended-up having about 2-3 more guys pass me in mile 4. In mile 5 I tried to push it as hard as I could and my legs just wouldn't move. It was like a bad dream. I came through under 39 min which I haven't done for a while so I guess It's OK. I think my legs would have felt better had I run a little more during the week. After the race it started raining cats and dogs.
