| I ran today and really didn't feel that sore after Saturday's Marathon
I ran 5.4 miles at a 7:27 pace in 40.29 with the dog. The rest of the
day till now was spend walking at our State fair (that's why I didn't run very much this morning).
It's kind of funny I had people congratulating me up at the fair. Also
when I ran this morning by one of our main streets this couple that I
ran past yelled at me congratulations and I didn't even know them. I'm
really not used to this attention. I'm dreading going to work tomorrow,
I need to find away to slip in my office without anyone knowing.

Today I ran 7 miles at a 7:20ish pace (I don't have my garmin with me right now). I really do feel good but I'm taking the runs easy this whole week, until Saturday. The weather is suppose to cool down here for the next week so that will be nice. I did the run with the dog, just to make sure that I wouldn't try to run fast. I got an entry into St. George for winning the Pocatello Marathon that's exciting.

| Today I ran 4.11 miles in 28 minutes at a 6:50 pace. I did the last
mile at a 6:31 pace so I feel I'm back on track for TOU next week. The
weather here is turning ugly. It's in the 50's and windy and rainy,
flash flood warnings. That's okay though I love running when the
weather is cooler. I got up late, because I got a nice cold that I'm
fighting now so I thought the lesser the miles and more sleep the
better. I took Nyquil last night at 8:30 and it only takes about10-15 minutes to work on me. I become loopy and wiped-out.

| Today I did my standard Satterfield hill loop except when I reached the top I went back down to get more down hill running. I've done this several times before. It's good training to get ready for TOU. I decided to do a mini tempo on the downhill, but not push too hard. First mile was still flat and I warm-up "6:35" than downhill "5:29, 5:37" and finally part downhill and flat "5:47", whats very encouraging is I didn't push too hard being a little cautious since I ran a marathon last Saturday. I feel my downhill running is strong and not to give a full effort and get these splits is very encouraging. This Saturday I plan to run 12 miles on a downhill course to get ready for TOU, and what better course than the start of the Pocatello Marathon Course.

| Today, I took the dog out for stroll/skip/run whatever you want to call it. We ran 7.1 at a easy 7:14 pace in 51:58. This run I started upward going over Olympus st.. which takes about 3 miles from my house. Then down Booth rd. which is over a mile downhill. Then I turned on Hiline st., turned on Yellowstone st. then Wilson st. all the way home (This portion of the course is completely flat). Tomorrow I plan a 12 miler and run six of the miles at a 6 minute pace. I don't want to completely burn-out before TOU. I've never done a marathon two weeks after running one. Last year I ran the Pocatello Marathon and then TOU, but they were 3 weeks apart, but I didn't end up running TOU seven minutes faster than Pocatello's marathon. But I was conservative in the Pocatello marathon on the downhill last year like I was this year. Sasha told me to floor TOU, and not worry about what happens. For a strategic plan to run a marathon this way makes sense, because what do I really have to lose. This is the FAST RUNNING Blog, so I should run FAST. I understand the importance of running fast. The only way to run faster is to run faster in your training and on race day.

| Today I did my long run on the Pocatello Marathon course, and it was good test to see how I felt after last weeks marathon. It's funny to start the course and your running by yourself where last week I ran the course with 260 runners. I started around 7:15am and I had to be done by at least 8:35am, because my wife was picking me up, but she had to be at church at10am. I had to take my daughter to one of her two soccer games today at 10:30am I ran 12.07 miles at a 6:22 pace in 1:16. First miles were good warm-ups at (6:44, 6:36), than I start MP miles faster than when I ran the race last week (6:29, 6:26, 6:21, 6:21, 6:21, 6:28). Okay, now I wanted to average around 6 minute pace for the next three miles to see how I really felt. The next three miles are exactly what I wanted to accomplish, and I did it with little effort (6:02, 6:01, 5:58). This was very encouraging for TOU next week. I really need to trust my ability to run fast, because for some reason I seem to take the conservative route in marathons. I hit the wall in my first one and I think that has always haunted me. I would really be happy if I can get under 2:50 next week.
The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble, and he knowth them that trust in him. Nahum 1:7 I'm going to trust in the Lord next Saturday when I run.
