St. George Running Center - Run For Life.

AM - Ran with the club this morning from the soccer park.  Nice easy pace. We had a good group of guys and good conversation. Bill (not Bull) showed up for the first time, which was cool. Went back a got Kendra and ran home. 9 miles.

AM  - Club workout this morning. Great Group! Our group ended up doing 5x800m after our warm-ups.  I'm finding my brain isn't working too hot early in the morning. I think I'm going to need a Gu before talking to the group - my ramblings are getting retarded.  My personal workout was lacking a bit.  I think it was due to my Sat. run. I just couldn't seem to get myself going and my stomach was acting up a bit. (2:36, 2:34, 2:34, 2:34, 2:37).  7 miles total.

Drove home and went out and did 10 more. Turf Farm to Stahli Farm and back. Steady pace until I started coming back up the hill to the Community Center. Took it eays the last 1.5 miles. 10 miles.

AM - Just Clyde and I this morning for group run. Dave and Logan are recovering and Billy is getting ready for Ogden Marathon. We ended up winding through lower Bloomington Hills, down to the river to River Rd. and picked up our normal Wed. morning loop.  We ended up getting an added 3 miles on the loop for a total of 13 miles. Felt decent until the end and just started feeling like I was dragging.

Massage tonight - My back and hips need a little more work.

No Run. Just not feeling well today. Tons of family stuff going on. Mom in Hospital, Kendra sick and then me just feeling way off. 

AM - Out and back to OutBack. Nothing special just got the run in. 10 miles.Felt  much better than yesterday.

AM -Club run this morning. Some did 10, others did 15. Clyde, Aaron and I ended-up extending and going 20.  The start was a bit stop-n-go due to everyone having stomach issues - Aaron was really having serious problems until around mile 10 when we had our last stop at the Dixie Center and Clyde thought he was going to get creamed from behind by a car.  After that the pace pick up a bit and I fell off the back of the guys a bit due to messing with my music and wondering if my knee was going to be ok.  I was able to keep a steady distance behind the guys until we hit the river bottom and they dropped the pace a bit more and lost ground on them.

Overall, I'm really happy about how I felt.  Besides my knee (IT) feeling tight, aerobically I felt great.  I didn't feel labored until the very end when I started pushing hard the last 3/4 of a mile, which really didn't make my pace really drop much. It almost didn't make it worth the push.  Anyways, the run ended up being 20 miles with a 6:19 average for the whole run.
