| 2 mile warm-up w/ strides, 8 mile tempo (same course as last week), 2.06 mile cool-down. I didn't feel quite as strong as last week and my splits were all over the place, but I still managed to average 5:22 pace. Splits were: 5:33, 5:20, 5:21, 5:24, 5:15, 5:12, 5:28, and 5:19. It was a good workout.
On the warm-up I ran past a house where a lady was out in front with her 3 little ankle biter dogs. As I ran by they came after me so I made the quick decision of rather than stopping and yelling and/or kicking the dogs in the head to just outrun them since I knew I could and I was ready to start my strides anyway. Well the lady yelled at me saying, "You don't run away from dogs, you idiot!" I was furious, her stupid dogs come running after me and rather than kicking the stupid things in the head I decide to outrun them and she calls me an idiot. I started to yell at her and then my better judgment took over and I decided to just turn around and keep running. The nerve of some people!

| Last night I laid sod for about an hour in the 95 degree heat. I was feeling the affects of that a little bit this morning. The first 3 miles of this run were super slow and a little painful. After that I was fine. AP: 6:59. |

| Decided to do my long run today instead of on Saturday because I will be running a small 5k in Nephi on Saturday morning. This was another run where the farther I went the better I felt. The second half of this run was much faster than the first. Even though I got out early this morning it was still quite warm. At the beginning of the run it was drizzling ran for a little bit. I wish it would have continued to rain. AP: 6:39.
Morgan Valley Marathon finally responded to my request for a free entry today saying they don't give free entries, so I think I'm going to run the Des News 1/2 marathon that weekend instead. I think a 1/2 marathon at that point will be better for my training anyway as my two focuses right now are the Skyline Trail Marathon and St. George Marathon.

| Went fishing with my grandpa early in the morning so I didn't get out until it was real hot outside. I didn't want to overdo anything so I just ran a little over 6 with the anticipation of running a lot of miles the next day. AP: 7:45 (There were some steep trail miles in there that brought down the average, on the flats I was below 7:00)

Ute Stampede Fun Run (3.25 Miles) 00:16:02, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1 | Slow miles | Fast miles | Total Distance | 12.90 | 3.50 | 16.40 |
| Ran from Levan into Nephi before the race which was 11.63 miles at an average pace of 6:50. Then ran the ute stamped fun run 5k which actually ended up being 3.25 miles. Then cooled down 1.27 miles. I didn't expect any competition in this race, I just thought it would be a good one to run because we wanted to spend some time with my grandparents and we like going to the ute stampede rodeo and I knew they gave the winner free tickets to the rodeo. I tried to give it my best effort and make a good workout of it. Mile splits were: 5:04, 4:54, 4:54, and 1:12 for the last .25 for a final time of 16:02. I ran the whole thing by myself and won by over 2 minutes. I got $50.00, a $25 gas card, and 2 tickets to the rodeo so it was well worth it and a great way to get a good workout in after running almost 12 miles already before the race. As a side note, the rodeo was awesome that night!
