Super day for a run. 70 degrees.    The sweat and salt from my forhead were stinging my eye's . Time to get out the hat.  Went around the black Hill.   last two miles some guy on a bike was riding on the other side of the street.  I decided to see if I could match his speed.  I managed to hang with him until he finally turned and went  a different direction.

Oh the pain!     Today was one of the hardest days I have had in a while.  It seemed like every step was a pain filled  adventure.  My legs and shines and hips and my heal feels like it is brused.    The temp was perfect 70 plus.   My body is telling me it is time to get some new shoes.   I guess it is time to face the music and go see the shoe Man.

Morning spinning class with sweet Angela.    Afternoon Ran up to the Running store to demand  a refund on my shoes i bought 300 miles  ago.    I  smashed them on the counter and starred down the dog behind the counter. He picked the shoes up and threw them half way across the store.    I  ended up getting some Brooks (Glycerin).  I like how the forefoot have some extra cushoning

Met up at the store with Steve, Clyde, and Paul.  We took off up bluff and turned up Snow canyon parkway.  Just as we peaked the hill we tirned around and decided to fly up bluff.   Paul and I ended up going up turtle trail up to the overlook point.  then back down to the store.  Nice warm temps.  (Glycerin)

Ran with Clyde and Steve.  Felt pretty good about the run.   Around mile 4 started having some pain on the left side of my chest.  I think  it was just a muscle but as a precaution I dedied to cut the work out a little short.   No problems since the run.

Met up with the club.

I Decided i needed to do a little speed today.   I warmed up for about two miles. Then I picked up the pace 6:00-6:15 min miles for 3.  then slowed down. probably 6:45 pace the last mile.    Nice and cool morning.  I am enjoying morning running again.  Now if i can just get my children in bed before 12:30!    My legs seem to feel tired around mile 3.  I want to slow down.  how do i convince my mind to push through the body wanting to slow down?  My breathing is okay. 4 more miles at night.  (Glycerin)

6 painful miles. I ran out of candy (Ibprofen)    I was reading in my latest RW magazine an article that stated that I would have to run 58 minutes to burn off 2 slices of Pizza from Pizza Hut.  If this is the case, on Pizza all you can eat Wednesday I usually have 5 plates, piled 4 to 5 high.  20 slices of pizza = 9.66  hours of running.  Houston we have a problem!

Nice awards.   Must of been about 600 people there.     I was feeling pretty good the first 4 miles.    My legs began to tire a little and i almost fell down.     so what else is new!     Happy with the time for now.  need to work on a little more power (speed work to run a litttle more cosistant from mile to mile. 

new course this year.  ran down the paved road for about 3/4 of mile then hit the trail.  I was glad i was up front because the crowd behind had a big time bottle neck here.   the course went up the canyon for about 3/4 of a mile.  then we turned around and headed back down the canyon.   mile 5-6 is the mentalpart of this course.   slight up grade.  can lose the race on this mile.    I had one guy out kick me at the end.   I almost passed out!   Happy with the race.   Congratulations to the st. george running club.  We all placed in our divisions. Clyde won the race.  Super job Clyde!

I did not get up and run this morning so I knew I had to make it up tonight.   I showed up at the track to do some speed work.   The wind was blowing and there was a light mist in the air and the temperature was around 54 degrees.  No runners were there except some soccor players and fans in the bleachers.   I was about to leave when Chrissie and Steve showed up at my car.   Steve said he wanted to run, but he had to go home and wash his hair!  Chrissie said she does not run with strange guys.  So there I sat.  I decided to go over to the Recreation center and get a few miles on the treadmill.   First three miles 7.30 pace.  Dustin Showed up and we talked a little.   Next 5 miles turned it up a notch as I watched dancing with the stars.  6.30 pace. (Incline 1)   Last mile 5:50 pace.  Then warm down.   (saucany type A)

Ran with the club.  Dustin, Steve, Luke showed up.  Nice easy run.  My heart was in it but my Stomach was just not ready after my chuck a Roma experience.   We Ran down dead man trail and over by the golf course and some back road.  The guys started jumping over the 5-foot wide creek. x 3 .   I think they just wanted to see me get wet.  The last jump over I managed to jump 4 feet.     I ended up getting a big fat blister on one of my toes.   (Glycerin)
