Psalm 91:1 NKJV He who dwells in the secret place

Ran 13.34 miles in a 7:06 pace in 1:34:38.  I ran up Olympus Rd. than back down  to the house... actually I did some extra streets before I headed back home.  I wanted to run at least a Half Marathon distance I memorial day since I had the day off and honor our troops.

7:59, 7:39, 7:37, 7:02, 6:56, 7:17, 6:54, 6:33, 6:41, 6:55, 6:59, 7:05, 6:51

Ran with Barry this morning down Mckinley Ave. and then we went behind the junkyard on Garrett Way an then back down on Hawethorne RD.  I didn't realize I picked it up and left Barry behind a  bit but I came back to get him.  We started out slow and end faster with a little headwind the last few miles.

9.2 miles at an overall 7:29 pace.  I did the last two a bit faster 6:53 and 6:41.

Ran about .2 later from way out in the parking lot from work.  I wanted to do this just to loosen the legs up.

Worked till about 10pm last night.  Well I worked from home from about 7pm to 10pm on a upgrade problem to the newest version of Solaris 10 update 10.  This will allow our Oracle databases more functionality.  I wasn't planning on going to work my normal time and instead took a little extra time for a longer run.  I really was tired and had a hard time getting out the door.

13.41 miles at an overall 7:13 pace in 1:36.  Pretty flat route on the old town side of Pocatello.   Ran in my Sacuony Kinvara which are over 400 miles and I'm starting to feel it in my knees.  Basically all my shoes are getting up there  and feeling the soreness in the knees from the wore down soles.

 I ordered two new pair of shoes the Mizuna Musha  4 and the Asics DS Racer 9's.  Never ran in either so we will see how they do.

 Did the last two miles at 6:57, 6:33.

Now I really need to find a Half Marathon shoe replacement for the way discontinued shoe Mizuno Idaten which I've used for 5 years and they have over 254 miles. 

Quick break from meetings to posts my run today....

13.2 miles at an overall 7:09 pace in 1:34:27 today.  Woke up really tired.  I've been getting to bed too late the last couple weeks and I think its catching up to me.  I finally got out the door at 7:15am.  I didn't have to be at work my normal time because of all the extra overtime I've been working.  Plus my vacation has reached the max so I've been going in late this whole week to not lose hours.  The problem is I've been working late so I really haven't took any hours off.  :-)

 I ran up to Hiline Rd. then turned on Chubbuck Road and then on Bench Rd.  Then I decided to turn on Jerome also to Satterfield Rd.  Lots of climbing and some decent back down to my neighborhood.  Can't wait till my new shoes come in (Mizuno Musha and Asics DS Racer 9's   these are like the Ohana's)

Splits

8:11,  7:26, 7:20, 7:33, 7:15, 7:29, 7:02, 6:44, 6:46, 6:42, 6:57, 6:36, 6:56

My Son had a baseball game last night and did well and now he starts football practice tonight at 6pm

Need to start doing some Tempo miles.  I think my good for now would be to do 4 miles at a 6:20 pace.  I've lost a lot of speed with my accident so I need to start somewhere.

Ran the first time in my Mizuno Musha 4 shoes.  Their 7.8oz very light but also seem to have a structured comfort.  
 
I an 11.22 miles at an overall 7:10 pace in 1:20:26.  I ran down Hilne Rd. and turned on Siphon Rd than turned on Whitaker Rd.  and back down Yellowstone Rd.  Really a flat course.  There was a lot of construction on Yellowstone Rd.

Last two miles 6:27, 6:39.

Easy slower long run with Bill today on the Pocatello Marathon Course. I really enjoyed his company.  He just ran Ogden two weeks ago and did a great job today.  I was impressed with the rebound he had to do the long run and not a lot of sleep.

 At mile 14 I started to pull away a bit and ended running the last bit by myself.  Did 23.11 miles at an overall 7:38 pace in 2:56:13.  Ran this in a brand new pair of Asics DS-Gel Racer 9 I really like them.  Its cool when you can break-in a pair of shoes going 23 miles.  They are like the Ohana and Bandito asics racers.

There was a 50 and 100 mile womens bike race going on so I did a lot of waving and talking as they passed.  I got off my pace as I was watching the bike's as I headed out of Inkom.  No big deal I just wanted a nice steady easy run and pace didn't matter.
When I got to Century High School I headed back to run with Bill.  

Bill is one solid tough runner and would be on his team anytime.

The temperature was not has hot as expected and even sprinkled a bit with a overcast sky.   But when the sun did peer through it was starting to heat up.

At 1pm went to a memorial for my wife's, father's brother that passed away.  There was family all the way from Denver.
