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

Three Mile route (7:16, 6;51,6:03).  Fun route and hurried to get back for Church.  The wind was horrible.  Very strong gusts.  The last mile I wanted to pick up a good pace.

Ran to the daycare and around the complex, then down Yellowstone over to Greenacres school. .  Then I ran by the park and back up to Jefferson.  I finished with a faster mile at 6:04.  Not too bad of run.  The weather was 40 degrees.

Did the Satterfiled Loop today in 37 degrees.  I did a few more up the side street hills on the way back down than I normally do.  I wanted to do the last 3 miles faster 5:48, 5:54, 6:02.  Not bad it didn't feel too difficult.  First miles in the 5 minute range since the September 5th marathon.  Good up and down hill run today.

Took it easy the first 8 miles then picked up the pace the last three miles (6:50, 6:17, 6:49).  The course was mainly flat except going up over the overpass bridge.  Temperature 39 degrees.

Easy Run.  Nothing hard felt sort of sluggish this morning.  Ran down Chubbuck Yellowstone Ave, then turned on Chubbuck Rd.  Then I turned on Philbin Rd. and then on Highway 30 and back home.  Did some miles in the higher 6 minuter range.

Morning:

Did the Hiline Rd and Poline Rd. route.  Picked the pace up the last few miles (6:22, 6;10, 6:35).  I felt pretty strong in the end.  I didn't have time to do more miles because I got up too late and had a morning meeting at work.  Wore a long sleeve shirt today.

Lunch:

Started from the daycare on my lunch hour and ran on Garret Way,  Highway 30, Hawthorne, Mckinley Ave, then back to the daycare.  Did one fast mile at  6:16.  The temperature was in the 80's.  Sort of easy run with pickups.

Finally caught up on my runs in the blog.  Been too busy with life to really spend time on hear anymore.  I will still try and keep up, but I don't know.

The day started out good running with Barry down Pocatello Creek Rd.  I ran 11.2 miles at a 6:44 pace in 1:14.  It felt good even though I was tired from all the work hours with the Google project.

Then later that day my daughter had a soccer  game and got kicked really, really, really, hard in the shin by the opposing team's girl's foot.  When my daughter was going down she heard a snap.  I rushed over on the field and  she was in pain and she said her leg made a snapping noise and she couldn't move it at all.  I immediately took her to the truck and rushed her to the hospital.  After 3 hours including x-rays at the hospital she completely broke her tibula.  We will have to have it in a cast in 3 days when the swelling goes down, but she will have to stay off of it for 6 weeks.  If the tibula bone moves at all during the healing she will have to have surgery done, and a rod will have to be put in.  We have to be careful and make sure she does not put weight on it.  She will have to use the crutches like a pro.  Right now they put her in a splint until the swelling goes down.

What's sad is she had a XC tournament on Friday for 8th grade and she finished in 8th place out of 102 runner for the 2 mile run.  The city race is next week and of course she will have to miss it.  She was actually starting to like XC more than Soccer.  She broke my heart when she cried and said " Dad I can't do XC or soccer anymore this year".   I wanted to cry but I was strong for her.

 Anyway, I've been to the emergency room the last three weekends and during the week.  First with my mom, then grandpa then grandma, then father-in-law and finally my daughter.  Wow what a month.
