The temperature this morning was 49 degrees and a nice breezy wind around 10mph. I ran a rather hilly route this morning. My legs felt better today, other than I have had a pain at the bottom of my left foot up near the toes for the last week or so. My toe next to the big toe feels kind of swollen. I need to keep my attention on this that it doesn't get worse. Could be because I've ran for 25 straight days. :-)

Anyway, I started from my house ran down Yellowstone, and turned up Clark St. (hill) then up Hospital Way (another Hill). Once you get up to the hostpital you have a half mile downhill. Then I turned up Buckskin Rd (hill) then turned on American Rd (rolling hills) then turned on Barton Rd. (downhill) for almost a mile. Then all the way back home (flat).

I ran 15.10 miles in an easy 7:15 pace in 1:49. Ran three miles under a 7 minute mile.

I've done quite a bit of medium long runs this week to build endurance. I feel really good that I was able to accomplish that in the time frame I have.

Do you know anything about the Pocatello 50 mile ultra race?

From jtshad on Thu, May 14, 2009 at 13:03:48 from 204.134.132.225

I have some friend's (fast older guys) who are running it as a team, including Tom Borschel (and my running buddy Pat B) who just sent you some info on trail running. He could tell you more.

Jon - Here's the web stie

http://pocatello50.com/

It's funny I was asked to run a leg of it this morning. If your interested there's a spot open on this one team to run the second leg. I mentioned about you so if you want to run it contact me and I will let them know. They would exactly let you choose what leg you want to run though.

Respond has soon as you can and I will contact him. It's my dentist and his brother that are running and they need a third guy.

Hmm. I'll look at the website when I get home (blocked at work, for some reason) and let you know. Is it a competitive team?

From wheakory on Thu, May 14, 2009 at 15:01:17 from 134.50.89.33

Jon - no it's not a competitive team. The one brother is decent as far as speed the other brother is slower from what I was told.

Next year Jeff, you and I should form a team. I don't have any trail running shoes to even run this race this year.

From wheakory on Thu, May 14, 2009 at 22:28:56 from 24.116.159.75

Jon - have you decided on the 50 mile race. My dentist friend is a great guy. He's also a bishop for one of the wards in our town.

From Jon on Fri, May 15, 2009 at 01:14:44 from 75.169.157.230

Let me ask my wife and get back to you. What leg would I run? Did they ask you to be on this team, or is it another team that wants you?

From wheakory on Fri, May 15, 2009 at 11:54:47 from 134.50.89.33

Jon - They asked me to be on their team. Their excellent guys. I just don't have the experience with trail running shoes or have any.

If you want you can stay at my house so don't worry about the hotel. I do you need to let him know soon. They mentioned Leg 2, but he told me he would run any of the legs.

From Jon on Fri, May 15, 2009 at 12:09:16 from 138.64.2.76

I don't think I can do it this year. If I had more notice, I may have been able to. Thanks for the offer, though.

From wheakory on Fri, May 15, 2009 at 12:30:47 from 134.50.89.33

Jon - no problem. If you ever need a place to stay coming this way whether a race or something else my house is always open to you .
