| Today I ran the Woods Cross Memorial Day 5k with my whole family. I ran with Connor and pushed Jaxine and Evan in a double stroller. Susie ran with Jed and pushed Eliza in a stroller. It was the first time Conner and Jed had ran a 5k. They did great. They ran together for the first mile. Then Jed slow down a bit , but Connor stayed strong. He only walked a little bit after each mile. Connor finished in 37:50, for a sub 12 min mile split and Jed finished in 45:36. It was a fun morning. | | Comments(3) |

| I am in Maryland for work today. I ran 2.5 miles on the hotel treadmill. That bored me to death, so I went outside and dealt with the heat and humidity for another 3.5 miles. | | Comments(1) |

| I got back in town at noon today. About 5 p.m. I headed out and ran the Mueller Park Trail. I ran to Elephant Rock in back in under an hour, 58:45. I was feeling fast tonight. My Jamba Juice gear came was I was away. I got a red tech shirt, black tech shorts, and a white visor. The sponsorship I got is to help promote there new line of super fruit products, so the front of the shirt says "I have super powers." I love it, its a perfect fit for my personality. | | Comments(2) |

| I wasn't planning on running this race, but last week I picked up a sponsorship for Jamba Juice and they asked me to run in it. I also signed up my son Connor for the race. The race was at Sugar House Park and did two laps around the park. Jamba Juie had a booth set up there and was giving away samples of some new flavors of smoothies. They tasted great. It has been a few years since I have actually raced a 5k. I wasn't sure what to expect. After we got underway, I was in fourth place. Towards the end of the first mile, a guy with curly hair wearing a green shirt passed me putting me in fifth place. He was running strong and I couldn't keep pace with him. I passed the fourth place person, which was the first place girl, towards the end of the first lap. Half way through the second lap I passed the third place guy putting me in the top three. I never caught the guy in the green shirt. He came in second and I came in third with a time of 19:42. For my efforts I received a $20 gift card to Red Rock and a $15 gift card to Wasatch Running Center. It was a fun race. Connor did great as well. He came in at 30:49 which is seven minutes faster than his last 5k. After the race I had my wife drop me of at the mouth of City Creek and ran from there to home. | | Comments(6) |
