Did a speed workout this morning. Started with Trick and my wife and then joined up with Peggy's group and Jody was there too.  I did a 2 mile warmup on the the track and did 3x200's(43,43,39) and then did 1x1200 3.49, 1x800 2.38, 1x400 1.19, 2 mile tempo run 6.56, 7.03 2x400 (1.18, 1.18), and 2x200's (35,34) 2 lap cooldown.  Good to finally meet Peggy, Cheris, Cheryl, and of Course Jody again.  My legs are thrashed from Saturday still but I always like to do speed workouts.  I ended up running 10 miles total.  Thanks for the ride home Jody! You saved my legs a bit.

ALL BY MYSELF were the lyrics to the song in my head this morning as I ran. I had to get up early and get my Japanese student off to the airport by 6:30.  She has been a cute little addition to our home for the past 2 weeks.   It was a blast getting to know her and I didnt know this till yesterday but Cheryl was in the same program and last night they had a dinner for us and I saw her there.  It was fun.  I ran an extended loop off of Daybreak this morning late. I started close to 9 so the sun was in full force.  Now I can work on that farmers tan! lol I ran a pretty nice comfortable pace and my average was 7:16.  Well its off to work I go! Tschuss!

I worked out this morning with the Bingham Buttkickers (what a great name)  I feel like I should have a leather jacket with a comb! We did 3 5k tempo runs and I got to know a few more people like Julie and Cheryl who is not Debbie!  Michelle and Kelli and of course Jody.  I know I asked others their names but forgive my ignorance in remembering.  I forget my own kids' names just so you have an idea how I am.  I felt pretty good today, it was very dark at the start!

Ran the Daybreak loop and then over to 98th and home.  Ended up being 7.5 miles.  Did it in 56 minutes.  My left leg is giving me trouble like its my IT band but I will definately stretch today.

I went up to the capitol and ran 18 miles.  I ran the avenues for 6 miles and then went up City Creek Canyon for  6 and then 6 down.  My last mile was at tempo speed and I had the canyon slope to help me with a 5.04 mile.  My total time was 1hour and 58 minutes.  The uphill was pretty hard this morning, I was doing 8-8:30 miles up and I was doing 6-6:30 down.
