Epic group night run to the top of Mount Timpanogos. There were 18 of us, felt good on the way up, and just chatted with the other runners. I didn't bring my garmin so I did not have the exact. Saw Crockett on his way down and on his way up as he did a double that night. I got to the top in 2:13, felt fairly easy on the way up. Hung out in the shed for about 15 minutes, we got to the top around midnight. On the way down I stopped and helped another runner fix his headlamp and also chatted with another runner for about 15 minutes as he was struggling. Ran most of the way down by myself. I could feel my groin/hip flexors tightening up on the way down and could not get any speed out of my legs and I was done by the end of it 1:58 down.. Hung out at the finish with the other crazies and had a great time. Got to figure out what I need to do, hope it was just a bad day for the legs.
I really thought I would not be able to walk in the morning but my legs are ok now. | | Add Comment |

| Holy moly, had to log something tonight or forget my password due to not running for so long. Been dealing with some tweaks I needed to ease up on. Went out with the pup in the fields above the water tower. Hopefully I can get some decent runs this week to feel this out. On a plus note I have had a lot of energy to work on the house, painting and putting in wood floors. | | Comments(1) |

Wednesday Wire with the Wasatch Wranglers crew. 5:30 am start, just one lap for me. It was good to have a run to see how my body was feeling but not totally kill myself. As usual I can usually get uphill decent and made it to the top in 40:39, I was taking it pretty easy the first half then pushed it a bit more the second half up.
Ran pretty much by myself on the way down. I am almost getting the hang of running trails downhill. At least it felt better and smoother than the last time I ran it. Probably should invest in some trail shoes as my instincts are slicks on the bottom. Good times and by body did not protest too much. Hopefully I can keep it up and get some more adventures in soon. | | Add Comment |

Early morning Timp. Summit with Ben, Nate, and Neasts. I was a little worried after bonking pretty hard on the way down a few weeks ago on our night summit. Got there at 4:00AM and the parking lot was full. Had to shuttle some cars down the road and did not get started until about 4:30. I pretty much ran with Ben the whole way up. 1:58 moving time to the top. Felt pretty strong on the way up. There was a lot of waiting on hikers on the way up and down.
Hung out at the shack at the top, refueled, and took some pictures then headed down, we stayed together on the way down. Felt fairly strong the whole way down, 1:34 return trip. With all the waiting on hikers and not killing ourselves. Legs are feeling pretty good now, just need a nap.
It was like we were rock stars running up past the hikers.... | | Comments(2) |

Figured I would at least document, so I can track the progress. Pulled my injury again last Tue. 07/23, at a basketball game at work I was talked into, lately it has taken about a week and a half to get back into running condition without doing too much damage. Hopefully this week I can hit the mountains and trails again without pulling anything.
PM: went on a 3 mile hike with my wife and our dog to the upper watertowers above the house. Ran about a half mile, felt ok. Itching to run again, don't want to pull anything but needing a good run. | | Comments(1) |

| About a mile or a bit more running back and forth between my oldest football tryouts and my other son's first day of practice. The practices were on opposite sides of the school, and I wanted to see as much as possible of both practices. Legs felt ok, should start running for real again tomorrow. | | Add Comment |

Morning run up Grandeur peak with some of the Wrangler group. Feeling the legs out the first bit, felt ok so I kept goint to the top. Gorgeous sunrise at the top, then cruised down and got to work before 7am. What a great way to start the day, looking for one more peak this week, well maybe two...
Added another mile at football practice tonight doing the same thing as last night....football is here and my summer afternoons are officially over. | | Add Comment |
