| Nice and easy recovery run around the neighborhood averaged 8:49 pace. It started raining lightly around mile 2.5 and continued for the rest of the run. Finished with hill sprints x2 and one leg hops x2. | | Add Comment |

Nice run in Liberty park. Didn't have the time to do all I wanted to do, but at least I was out there. Warm up of .75, 3K @ half marathon pace, 2k @ 10k pace, 1k @5k pace, with 2 min recovery in between each. Averaged about 7:20 for the whole thing. Had to get back to work, will try to do some more this afternoon after TJ's soccer practice. Legs felt pretty good.

| Ran on the TM today, due to the threatening rain storm. 1 mile warm up @ 9:16 pace, miles 2-5@7:30 pace, mile 6@ 7:24 pace, mile 7 @7:19 pace, 8 @ 7:08 pace, 1 mile cool down @9:16 pace. Started out the run with some negative thoughts but I was able to fight through it and finish strong. Probably because I hate to run on the treadmill. Got to keep fighting this week and next then the taper begins for the Ogden Marathon | | Add Comment |

| Ran this morning with Chet. Started at the house and headed into the ranches, then towards Eagle Mountain then back the same way. It was the farthest distance I have ran up to this point. We averaged 8:29 per mile. Legs felt o.k. but are fatigued from this weeks training. I was able to push the last half mile so I know there is still more in the tank and we were able to hold a conversation during the run. Only one more week of hard training then the taper for the Ogden marathon begins. | | Add Comment |

| Couple easy miles around the neighborhood, garmin died after the first mile, rain started after the first mile, ended about mile 8. Went to the dentist right before the run and it felt funny running with a numb mouth. Legs felt good, probably averaged about a 8:25 pace. Ended the run with hill sprints straight legs x2 and no arms x2. | | Add Comment |

| Ran a blistering fast mile with my eight and six year old boys. Came in just under 11:17. It was nice to get them out and run, my six year old got finished and said that was not even hard and jumped straight on his bike to prove it. He finished up with me doing push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, and some weights. | | Add Comment |

| Tempo run on the path (.9 miles long, back and forth, back and forth) in our neighborhood while Spencer was at soccer practice. 1 mile warm up, seven mile tempo run @ half-marathon pace 7:23,7:19,7:17,7:16,7:16,7:06,7:04, 1 mile cool down with Spencer (8) after his practice. Run got progressively better, felt pretty smooth, a little pain in my knees after the run, but felt pretty good overall. My first 20 mile run is coming up on Sat. so looking forward to that, I must be crazy. | | Add Comment |

| Long run with Chet this morning. Started in Saratoga Springs and ran to Highland then back. First two miles were down hill then, gradual uphill until Highland. Lungs felt great, legs were feeling the miles this morning, especially my calves. Average pace for the run was 8:27. The last two miles back up hill I was able to open up the legs some and it felt like I could cruise for a long time. I think with some taper the marathon should be great. Got home and jumped in an ice bath, then off to the soccer games to watch the kids. It also started snowing on us pretty hard in Highland, I'm officially sick of winter. Snow or no snow the grill is getting fired up this afternoon. | | Add Comment |
