Favorite Running Quotes:
1.
"Sooner or later the serious runner goes through a special, very personal experience that is unknown to most people.
Some call it euphoria. Others say it's a new kind of mystical experience that propels you into a elevated state of consciousness, a flash of joy.
A sense of floating as you run. This experience is unique to each of us, but when it happens, you break through a barrier that separates you from casual runners. Forever. And from that point on, there is no finish line. You run for your life. You begin to be addicted to what running gives you."
~Nike Poster
2. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
You’ve no doubt heard this. And you’ve probably recited it in your mind on a run or at the gym when you’re just beginning to get in shape. You have a goal in sight and this quote brings you back to the current moment.
But the problem is that many runners forget all of the steps between the first one and the goal. If your goal is to run under two hours for the half marathon then you need to be honest about all of the little steps to get to that goal.
You should have goals, but you should take it one step at a time. And you should be honest about the fact that you don’t know how many steps it will take to get there. ~ Vernon Gambetta
3. Human beings are made up of flesh, blood and a miracle fiber called COURAGE! ~ George Patton

Today is my 36th birthday. I celebrated by doing all my favorite things! I went on a run with Collette (even the weather was fall-like...my favorite). I sure appreciate that sweet woman!
Then we went hiking as a family up Donut Falls in my favorite canyon (Big Cottonwood). Though it was crowded, it was gorgeous. The leaves are starting to turn colors and it was a bit chilly (I was in heaven!!!). We ate donuts at the top!
We ate lunch at Freebirds and enjoyed a yummy burrito bowl.
It truly was a wonderful day with my family and friends!

| One quick mile before power pump. There weren't as many people there this time which was nice...I had a bit more room to spread out. It was still hard, but I felt like I did a tiny bit better than last time.
The internet guy is finally here after having a week with no home internet. He is my new best friend.

| I started my run at 8:00pm. I got a mile in before my kids needed me and then it was time to put everyone to bed. And it got later. And later. And the lack of motivation won. The end. | |

| TT: 3:01 AP: 9:42 This run goes into the "it was so bad, that we had to laugh instead of cry" category. I somehow convinced Collette to do a long run with me after we dropped our kids off at school. We drove up to Provo Canyon for a change of scenery, but we didn't start until 9:30. We headed south to the Riverside Country Club then headed up to Vivian Park. Immediately, my legs got heavy (Ogden Marathon heavy). At first, I thought it was because of my lack of running this week. But the further I got, I realized it was more than that (and probably lack of running). Collette had a ton of walk/bathroom/Chapstick/iPod breaks. Finally, I just had to keep running...the starting and stopping was killing me. She would catch up, but started feeling sick. I started to feel the nausea coming on. We were a sad sight. It was starting to get hot and the sun was beating on us (and I had no salt tablets). I had to take a few walk breaks too so the pukes wouldn't come. And my calves were cramping like crazy. I finally got back to the car and just laid on the grass....too afraid I was going to puke. Collette was feeling lightheaded too. We headed down to our secret soaking spot in the river. The red gatoraide was not feeling too hot in my stomach. Getting in the river was the best part of the afternoon. My feet started to have wild/crazy Charlie horses when they hit the water. Everything calmed down after awhile...feet/stomach. We laughed about how yucky the run was! We were contemplating stopping to get burgers and fries on the way home. It sounded yummy, but my stomach was still iffy. We settled for Cokes. I'm so grateful for Collette for enduring a horrific, hot, pukey run with me. That is a true friend! I need to upload data from my Garmin, but I'm way too comfy on the couch to do it!

I had a really hard time sleeping last night. My calves kept cramping and my house was really hot. So when my alarm went off at dark o'clock, I just got up. I haven't done a dark o'clock run in awhile...it was nice.
My legs were really heavy the first 2 miles...look at those slow poke splits. But I was able to get them moving a bit. Hip is sore.
Lots of soccer games, working in the garden and harvesting potatoes, tomatoes, raspberries, and carrots. I LOVE harvest time.
I sure hope I can sleep tonight.
