I run therefore, I am!

went to the park trail in Lehi and ran 10 miles in the wind. Then this evening I swam 1000 yards then ran 2 miles and did 10x stairs at dimple dell gym. 

Ran with the BBKs today. Showed up late because I got pulled over by a South Jordan Cop. I was doing 52 in a 35 and told him I was late for my group run at Bingham High. I asked him what he was doing pulling over us runners at 5 am for? lol He didnt even crack a smile. Thats when I knew I was screwed. He let me off though so he must have some sort of sense of humor. I love how the speed limit was 40 before they widened the road to 4 lanes, now its 35. Interesting huh? My run was good, a nice easy run with a smigeon of tempo. I cannot believe how well my swim made my legs feel this morning. 

Went to go meet up with the BBK Runners this morning and there was a Firetruck blocking my driveway! I didnt even hear him pull up! I went out to find why thinking my house was on fire and saw an ambulance in the neighbors driveway. I went over to see what was up and found that a really good friend whose family is into running and biking and just being so full of life, died! I was devestated at the news that she had flu like symptoms and it is just so sad!  She is 37 years and left behind a 14 year old son and a husband.  I spent the morning mourning and then went to the school to pull my daughters out because they were close to her and were really struggling. Life is to short my friends! Especially if your life is taken at a young age! It makes you grab your loved ones and hold them tight! 

Holy Crap! Walter didnt run a race today! I went down to 700 W. and 8600 So. and got on the park trail and ran with Danielle at 6:30 for 2.5 miles then met Christa and ran to 13 miles with the two. It was a great morning! a bit cold at first but warmed up good. There was a 5k race on the trail and I wanted to join in so bad! But I luckily held back and stayed at a good pace. I will be better for it in BOSTON! Im so excited to get the crap out of dodge! I wished I could leave right now. Stupid work and having to make money and all that bill responsibility crap! Blah!  Im a little sore still, legs are still showing fatigue.  I will be nice to my bod this week.
