No running enjoyed the day with my wife.  We went out and ate at a Chinese buffet and went grocery shopping.

No running today.  I want my immune system to get better before I start running again.  I need to get over this cough and sinus issues.  I coughed all night last night and didn't sleep very well.  I could run but I think a break is better for me right now.

No running today and I'm going through withdraws.  I'm going to have to run tomorrow, because I get depressed when I can't run.  I know the rest is good for my immune system but I feel a lot better and my legs are fine. I will just ease into a nice slow pace tomorrow.

I ran for the first time today since the marathon on Saturday. I was really having bad running withdraws and couldn't wait to get out and run this morning. I could have run the day after the marathon, but I wanted to recovery from my cold and sinuses. The cold and sinus issue is getting better but still there. I ran 7.5 miles today on very fresh legs. I did take it easy, but stepped it up a bit the last three miles (6:59, 6:48, and 6:44).


The first 4 miles I took the dog, and he got loose and at one point I ran 800ms at a 4:51 pace (according to the garmin) on the second mile before I caught him. The rest of the mile I took it way slow, because I didn't want to come back from the rest and run anything real fast today. My overall pace was 7:12. It's amazing how fast you can run when your not focusing on it.

I went to the gym on my lunch hour today and ran 2.6 miles on the treadmill and lifted weights. It's been about a month since I've lifted weights.

Now that I've had time to think about the Teton Marathon I'm really down and disappointed.  I'm so competitive with myself that I want to run another marathon at a chance to get under 2:50.  I feel so dedicated right now.  I'm really trying to figure out what I need to focus more on in my training.  I know the sickness really hurt me over the weekend, and I really do feel I could have ran under 2:50 if things would have been different with my body.

Today I ran 4 miles with the dog (average pace 7:09 mile) than 5.2 miles after dropping him off back home.  I ran each mile faster than the previous to end the run (6:55, 6:48, 6:40,6:00). I did the whole run down one of our main streets in the city (Yellowstone St.) that goes over an overpass down Poleline St. then back to my house.  Nobody else out running, but that's pretty much how it is most days.    I think the biggest thing I need to work on right now is having  6:30 pace a mile be a comfortable pace.  Most of the time it is, but sometimes it isn't.  I'm still debating on whether to run the Des News Marathon.

I haven't ran in my new pair of shoes I thought I would try, Asics Ohana racers.  I've heard such wonderful reviews about them that I thought I would give them a try.  It would be nice if this lightweight shoe could become my marathon shoe.  

Right now I rotate between three shoes Avia-lites (I love these shoes), Mizuno Wave Rider 9's, and my marathon shoe Asics DS trainers 12's.  The Avia-lites used to be my marathon shoe, but they are little bit heavier than the DS trainers 12's.  But I my go back to the Avia-lites, becauese the DS Trainers seem to beat one of my toes.

I had a chance to run while I was in Billing Montana.  I did sort of a tempo run, but not real all out.  (6:13,6:06,6:00,6:04,6:02,).  I jumped over a snake curled up in a ball that I saw at the last moment that was real exciting.  It was kind of nice to run in higher altitudes.  I did this run right before dark and the temperature was nice and cool.  The run felt good not really any soreness from last weeks marathon.  I'm now debating if I want to run Des. News marathon at all or save my legs for Pocatello and Logan. 

I wouldn't be able to do any running Saturday or Sunday because of the soccer tournament, so I wanted to make this somewhat a harder run.  I'm trying to keep my runs below the 6:30 avg. per mile just to keep the intensity going.
