Would like to BQ - need to shave 23 minutes off PR.
Long-Term Running Goals: Keep running.
When I started running my wish that turned into a goal was to qualify for Boston. Just so I could say "I qualified for Boston."
AFTER BQ, I think I will do some Tri events. For sure some Half Ironman events, and see where that takes me. Personal: Married to Kelly (with a 'Y')

| First run from trying to recover from calf muscle pull. I ran three miles, walked an additional two. I think I better do more stretching. It doesn't feel healed. |

| Felt better. Took more time up front stretching. Walked, built up to run,
slow 1 mile run, added some speed for 2 and 3 mile, then down to walk. Am
encouraged the calf problem is getting a little better. There was still post
run pain, but very tolerable.

| Felt good the whole way. Am doing more stretching. All the miles were
slow, but I don't want to mess with that darn calf, and when the speed
starts to go up I can feel the calf starting to have a little pain in
there. So, will build slow. BUT its coming around! Yeah.
I will add more miles/more days next week. |

Felt good. Calves are doing ok. Pace is picking up. I'm amazed how fast you loose muscle/conditioning. I need to start doing more speed segments. I'm finding it difficult to run fast while I'm having a hard time just going the miles. I'm sure I will get there.

| Ok, so I have a question for those more experienced runners. When your running, and you want to pick up the pace to a faster pace, do you pick up the pace for a certain amount of time or do you go for a certain distance? I guess my question is how do you know how fast your going if you don't know both of the questions, distance/speed. I feel like it is a silly question, but I wonder. Is it ok to just push it to "uncomfortable" for some period of time, then back down for the same period, then back up ......? Just curious.

| Urrr. 5 miles felt like I went faster than my time came out. 42:25. I had two times where I had longer than normal waits at stop lights (hit the lights just right.) And I thought I did better because I tried picking up the pace for some short bursts. (fast pace between telephone poles). But I guess I went tooooooo slow on the slow parts. Urrrrrr! I'm going to go measure the route and make sure it is 5 miles. |

No miles today, but played soccer with some guys from work. I forgot I have other muscles in my legs. Oh are they sore. Sore muscles and my cleats gave me a huge blister on my foot, all that will make for a nice running day tomorrow. Oh yeah! I'll just look at it as training for the strong mind.

Starting off was very hard. Muscles in my legs are SORE from soccer yesterday. But as usual good things are still good after you get to doing it. It always amazes me how just pushing through some lack of enthusiasm, or lack of desire, and doing those hard things makes me feel better by the time I finish. Sometimes those darn things aren't as quick to be rewarding, but running is "usually" rewarding real quick. Took my son up the canyon on a bike ride in the evening.

| Old, Out' Shape. OOS! I kept looking at my watch and thinking oh my HHHH. I'm going so slow. Ok, confession time. All dang winter I have been running inside on an indoor track. I think the lack of variable terrain is showing. I was thinking I was doing well. NOT! I have been working up the guts to try some of these two a days that I see people on here do. Of coarse I'm not going to have the # miles they put in. I figure I may through one or two in this week and see how I handle it. I just have to find a way to cut the straps that the bed uses to hold me down in the am.

I was only going to run 5 miles, then while was out a friend who has been talking about going out for a run called me. He has been talking about going out for awhile, I have been telling him to call me and I would go with him, so when he called I couldn't say no. So I finished up my 5, then went to my sons baseball game, then home and ran another 3 with Troy. I'm having a hard time breaking the 8 min pace. Troy is just starting so I let him set the pace, so those three were slow slow paced. But my first 5 I had were right at 8 min per mile.

Good run, but had a couple stops. Ran up around the old WordPerfect Buildings. There is a sign of age, and how long I've been in this area. Another sign of age (I wish it wasn't so) I had to go to the bathroom. HATE when that happens. Oh well. Ok run. 38:31/7:43 |

Ran up Main to 2000 N, then up 2000 N to Cascade, down Cascade then over to Harmons then 400 N. then over to Main then Home.
The hill was HARD. Had just under 9 min mile (8:40ish) going up the hill, made me tired. It was hard to make up the slow time to get down under 8 min miles on the rest run. But it was nice to get some hill in the run. I did take about 1 min to stretch around mile 3.5.

Went up Provo canyon, one of my friends wanted to run the 10k route
that is coming up this weekend. Started at Mt Timpanogos Park up to
Bridal Veil Falls then back. I did a couple run aheads then back to the
small group.
Hamstring hurts while running, but feels better through the day.
Oh, funny thing. Ok, not so funny for Josse, but it kinda made me
chuckle. I was running back and all of a sudden I had blurry vision on
the lower half of my eye sight. First thing that came to my mind was
that darn blog I
read. "Oh no, what were they saying? I don't remember." "Oh no,
I'm either on my death bed or I'm going to have an incredible good
run." 30 seconds later: "Phew, I'm not on my death bed, its just a
drop of water from the rain." "DANG, this means I won't have an
incredible run either." Well, it was fun there for a few seconds.
Fun to remember the blog and think about all the amazing people I read
about. All from silly little drop of watter invading my eye sight.

| Ran 3 while trying to watch my sons baseball game. That wasn't working out, so I called it good with the 3 and watched the game. After the game I ran a couple of the kids home and went out for 4 more miles. So about a 2 hour split for the two runs. Got some miles in. Yeah.

| Ran WordPerfect 6, hamstring hurt bigtime about mile 4.5 on. I had to walk for a couple minutes. I'm wondering if I am in need of a Chiro adjustment or if I have a strained hamstring. The pain isn't always like a muscle pain, its almost like nerve pain, but then there is muscle pain other times. I don't know. |

| Well went out for the first time in a week. Hamstring felt good. Took it easy for the most part. Had a friend with me that runs just a little slower than I, but if he knew what he has in him he would be blowing me away. Went up the canyon to Bridal Veil. Muscles at the top of my quads are a little sore, but feels good. Will go out again Monday. Then hopefully out every day.

| My legs felt like I had gained 30 lbs. I hate that. I enjoy running in the morning, I just wish I didn't have to fight to get myself out of bed. I think I was pretty much 8 min miles except one about mile 4 I think I was more like 7:30 - 7:45.

| Met my friend at the mouth of the canyon and ran up, figured the total distance was right at 8 miles. Ran in 1:07:13. The wind was yuck going up. As luck would have it when we turned around to come down the canyon, we got in behind a lady from Vegas, she was hold a pace slightly faster than my friend would have let me take him, and I think he realized that he could stay with her, and went a little faster. Had she not been there, the pace would have been about equal going back, but we got a negative split. Yeah.
35:56 split going up. And if I'm doing my math right, down is 31:17.

Day late report, ran up the canyon again today. Got a late start, 8:30 or so. Still ok
weather. I had to talk myself into going out at all. That seems to be
the norm for me lately. I made it, now I need to make it more
next week.

AM:
Was going to run up to Bridal Vail, but they had the trail blocked because of fire. Ran into a friend at the top, ran down with him. Was an easy run, working my way back up in miles per week. This makes fourth day in a row. Yeah, will shoot for five days next week. So, this week I had a 6.75, 3.75, 3.15, and a 7 for 20.65. Next week I will shoot for 26. So, get a good start and go out MONDAY!!!!
7 miles/ 56.22 min/ 8:03 pace
PM: Wasn't planning on running anymore Sat. but the treadmil was looking lonely and I felt the urge, so I went for a 3 mile jog on the t'mill. That sure is boring. Took advantage of the speed knowledge and bumped up the pace to 6:30 for .25, and 7:00-7:30 a couple times for 1.5 or so. Then sat at 8:00 for the remainder.

Went out this morning thinking I was running 5-6 miles, but then one of those
stupid mis-communication things happened and I had to drive someone to the
airport, so had to stop after 2. Bummer, but luckily I have some plans to run
tonight with a friend.
So, AM - 2 miles. PM - 7 miles / 1:03 Went and ran behind the water towers above the Orem Cemitary. The first mile just kills me. Of coarse the last mile is fast. Have been feeling a little pain in my right calf.

| Ran from the big parking lot up South Fork, down to the mouth of the canyon. Was trying to get Phil (not on FRB) to run faster almost the whole way. Ended up at 1:20 From Vivian Park we had to take the highway, when we hit that little uphill section, Phil really had a hard time. Seemed like he never recovered after that. He is deciding if he wants to run the Half this coming Sat. I think he would if I would run with him. My calf was really tight to start with, and could feel it hurt when my stride lengthed and muscle had to push harder. So I'm not sure I want to run Provo Canyon Half, opting maybe to just sit tight for Hobble Creek. Well, if I pace Phil, and he goes slower than I would go, could be a good training run. Thought I saw FRB singlets headed up South Fork when I was headed down about 7 am, anyone want to claim?

| Easy run, around the apartment. Right calf is still feeling a little tweaky. The pain is fairly sharp, and deep in the middle of the calf. I try and stretch it, but find it very difficult to get to the right muscle to stretch.

| Urrrrrrrrrr. Calf was feeling tight/sore early, and seemed to never let up. At the turn around point I decided to stretch and see if I could get it to relax. Ran about another .75 and the dang thing locked up. Felt like a huge charlie horse. Walked home, iced, showered, ice bath. Still very sore, hurts to walk. Ughhhh! Well, couple days off now, see if I can get it on the healing side. |

| Ran at the outdoor track at the fitness center again. Ran 3 miles, took it easy. I can tell I haven't been running much. Calf felt better. I stretched last night, and then stretched good before the run, then again after the run. Now an hour and a half after I feel less pain than prior days. Guess I'm getting old and the body is not as flexable as it used to be. Will take more time stretching! 22:25/7:29 pace

Went to the fitness center again. I am finding some comfort in going there while I'm trying to get this calf muscle back in shape. Its a mental thing I know, but I feel like I can KNOW how many miles I am at, and its somewhat flat. Ok, a Baconator at 9PM, then bed at 12 makes for getting up by 6 is very hard. Probably will have to change most of that schedule.
I had one of those "Awe I love that" moments. I got a late start and was running around the track and the sun was peaking over the mountains (love that too), then a few minutes pass the breeze that the sun pushes out of the canyon rushed accross the valley. Ahhhhh, cool mountain breeze, LOVE IT. Until it feels like wind in my face pushing me backwards! Kidding, still love it. 39:52/7:59 pace

| Had a good run, felt ok. Right calf is still giving me some little twinges. 1 - 7:40, thought I was going slow. If I remember my half mile split was right at 3:50, so picked it up the last half. The Orem City employee's were out doing some fitness something or another so a lot of runners, as I was on my last 1/4 of this mile a guy passed me, I think I let my attention go and stayed with him. At times I like when that happens, but I also like to stay in control of myself and run my pace, I think it is helpful at the beginning of races.
2 - 7:36. Felt good. 3 - 7:32. I was feeling a little tired at the 2.5 split I think that was my slowest half mile split at 3:58, when I saw that I picked it up for the end. Now, if I can just get this calf thing fixed. Oh well. Stretch, run, stretch. Hopefully will be able to finish Hobble Creek. Will try and get 7,8 in tomorrow, and get some split days in next week to increase mileage.

| Ran the CJC/NMV (Childrens Justice Center/No More Victimes) 5k. Did a 1/2 mile warm up, then the race, then ran back and found my daughter and pushed her in. (That added about another mile) Then I ran with my youngest son and daughter on the 1k they had. Did ok on the 5k. 21:47. The coarse has two turn-a-rounds, the first one at just over a mile. That is where my shoe came un-tied. HATE that. At the time I knew I was in 13-15 place and first girl was 1-3 behind me. There was no way I was stopping to tie that shoe! BUT what a distraction. Oh well. Made it. I finished, held off the 1st place girl. Came in 16th. In my mind I am wanting to place higher in these shorter races, and in the longer ones, but I used to not care about the shorter ones, now....It would be nice to win my age group. (today, 4th in age)

A friend ask if I want to join he and another friend for a run on a trail in AF Canyon. It was beautiful! The trail was an out and back, 3.5 out. At the split our time was 33:33/9:35 pace. Altitude took its toll on me. I guess I run way to much flat stuff. Coming back was better. 30:21/8:40 pace.

| Went to the outdoor track at the fitness center again. Was aiming for some easy miles. 1 - 8:04 2 - 7:58 Some guy passed me pretty fast, at about mile 1.75, he stopped, then
passed me again at the same spot about 2.25, then again at 2.75, I'm
figuring that he is using me, let me get out there to a certian point
then bust a gut to catch me before his rest spot, figure he is doing .5
mile repeats. 3 - 8:06 Rounding first corner after my mile 3, look back accross the field to check on the guy making me feel like I need to do more fast repeats, thinking about speeding up so he has to work really hard to get me. HE IS CUTTING THE FIELD IN HALF. Cutting the corner, what kinda deal is that. Now I think I was just feeling bad that I took the day off yesterday, and was taking it easy today. He probably wasn't doing anything with regards to me. Silly me. But it was fun thinking about making him work hard. 4 - 8:03
5 - 8:07 I wasn't going to run this one, I stoped after 4 and stretched, and while I was strectching I thought I would try a "cool down" mile. As I started back up I ran about 100 yards or so and as I breathed in my gum went shooting down my throat, but only it didn't go down. COUGH, COUGH, COUGH and out it shoots. Dang gum. 40:19/8:04 pace

Well, I had set my goal for 1:40, missed it. I'm disappointed/aggravated. I'm very impressed with how my friends did, Scooby, Kelli/Scott, Matt/Lesslie, and Bill.
1 9:06 I couldn't believe the split here. Dang crowd. Proved to be ok though, probably would have gone to fast if I would have had clearer road.
2 7:11 Was disappointed with the first mile, picked it up, stopped talking.
3 7:19 Liking the splits, feel good, but I knew that the lack of distance training was going to haunt me somewhere after nine.
4 6:55 5 7:17 6 7:24 7 8:08 Missed the marker, but realized it shortly after and hit my lap anyway, so this is a little long, and made the next one (two) faster than they really were.
8,9 14:39 I missed the mile marker somehow, so this is a two mile split. (7:35 avg for 7,8,9)
10 7:57 GOT CHICKED! Good job Kelli! Started really loosing my legs here.
11 8:04 Really feeling that hill now. Poor training coming into play in a big way. Was trying to keep my eyes on where Kelli is at, but am loosing it too fast.
12 8:31 13 8:33 Resisted the urge to walk in a huge huge way.
13.1 00:44 If I can get over being CHICKED, I will try and smile about getting a PR. I look forward to a better training year next year. Congratulations to all!

Nice rest day, late this evening I rode my bike over to see the kids, 2 miles one way, 4 miles round trip, 16.5 minutes round trip time. Thighs are a little sore. Right achilles is aching. I felt my arch and achilles durring the race yesterday, I think I have been pushing the life span on those shoes. I think I will replace them. There is probably more than 500 miles on them.

Was lazy and slept in this morning. But did ride my bike to work, then home for lunch then back to work, then home. About 1.25 miles each way. So, 5 miles on the bike. When I got home I went to the gym and got 5 miles running in on the tread. Not a bad pace, but the temp in there was horrible. I thought about half way through I should have just gone outside. Now I am going to sit down to eat a couple of Good German Brats, then I think I will go to the corner store and get a soda. Living large!

I got a late start, hit the trail head about 7:15. Ran up Provo Canyon, had a faster than normal pace going up. I knew I had limited time. I had to get home and get my son ready for football. I wanted to get 8 in before I had to take him to his game, so I pushed the pace going up, and was hoping that I could equal that going back down. The wind sucked going up! Wow. I hate when you feel like your loosing ground. Finished my 8 just in time to get Brady to his football game, then took of from the parking lot for 4 more miles. That was tough. There was about 30-40 minutes between runs, and I did push the pace up and down the canyon, my knees felt like they were pounded on. The route for the 4 mile was basically the coarse (NOT flat) that is used for the Turkey Tri in Nov with enough added on to make it 4. So, the breakdown:
.5 : 4:03 .5 - 1.5 : 7:41 1.5 - 4 : 19:40 (7:52 pace) 4 - 6.5 : 17:22 (6:57 pace) 6.5 - 7.5 : 7:18 7.5 - 8 : 3:50 59:54/7:29 pace
Next run 4/32:00 8 min pace (was tired and it showed. Like last week) |

| Fun race, I started out to fast, and then faded on the last two
miles. Kelli just about "chicked" me again on the last 2 miles. She
will say I held her off, but I know she was just being kind. (either
way, thanks for being nice, and thanks for pushing me) I really feel
the fact that I haven't been putting in longer mile days. I need to
get up to 5-6 per day during the week and build the strength and
endurance on the weekend "long" runs. Still fun, enjoyed the race, and
for me this is a first on a 10k and first time I have ever placed in my
age group. All the old guys are wheelchair bound now, so I finally
placed. Yeah!!!!
After the race, everyone met over at
Marion's for pancakes. Yummy! Enjoyed hearing how everyone did. I'm
getting more and more convinced this blog thing is good for me. At
least it gets me out of my shell a little.
Don't really know my splits, I thought I hit my lap button on
mile one, but must have missed it. So, the first two are together.
14:11 Pretty sure the first one was 6:40 or so. That is what these guys said when we passed mile 1.

This is 1.2 miles, Kelli and Scott were pushing me, Scott took off, I
tried for about two steps to stay with him, but no chance.
47:13/7:37 ( my "runnercard" thing they gave me after the race said 7:35 miles, I wonder how they are calculating that.)

| Ran the turkey tri route (about 3 miles). That has a good hill that last for about .5 miles. I did the hill section in 4:07. I'm going to introduce more hills into my routes. I felt a little tired towards the end. After the run I went into the gym and did some weights. Today was legs, tomorrow will be upper body. I'm sure I will feel the legs tomorrow. 40:38/ 8:08

Ran pretty much the same route as yesterday, added on. I think it was more than 6, but not to 6.5 so I'll count 6. I want one of those dang GPS watches. I've decided I really like knowing how many miles I run. Not knowing plays with my head.
Yesterday 12:14 to the bottom of the hill. Today 12:13 Yesterday 4:02 up the .5 mile hill. Today 4:09. I lifted weights (legs only) yesterday, and I am feeling it today!!!!!!!! 49:17/8:12 per mile Have a GREAT day!

| I was going to go in the morning, then my son informed me that I had to take he and his buddy to their football game in the morning. Well they had to be there by 7:30, that meant I had to be back home by 7, which meant hitting the trail by 5, out of bed by 4:30. YUCK! So I slept. Thinking I could get started after the football game. NOT. So, I finally got out about 5 PM. I ran up Provo Canyon, Went passed Vivan on South Fork and up to South Fork Canyon Park. I think that is about (almost) half way to the parking lot. ( I think that is Spring Hallow) then went back down. The up really wiped me out. I need to get the legs stronger. The gym will be seeing me!!! I did get a mile in on the track by my sons football game before it started, then 15 in the eve. 2:10/8:41 pace. I had two somewhat lengthy stoped or walking spots, my son called me and need Dad to be able to talk more than breath heavy, so I walked while I was talking to him for about 2:30, and then another when I stoped to take some GU, and water. So I think my pace was slightly better than how it turned out, but who knows, maybe I would have been more tired and not been as fast.

| NEW. That is the theme for the day. I had been saving my pennies and saving and saving. Well. I totally spoiled myself last night. I needed a pair of shoes, those were in the budget, but then I realized I had enough saved to get the watch I have had my eye on. I got the Garmin 405. So, this morning I got up, it took me 20 min or so to get it to work, put on/tied on my NEW shoes, straped on my NEW watch, and out the door I went. 4.08 miles, and I didn't have the turning points mapped out. YAHOOOOOOOOO. Its a little distracting. I mean I'm trying to run, but looking at the stupid VP (don't go there, Virtual PARTNER), look at the pace, distance, heart rate, wondering if I have the settings right. Then every now and then I catch sight of the newness of the shoes, wow white. Why can't they make at least black in all the shoes? Anyway, I have a lot of data now. Love the watch. 32:15/7:53 pace (I won't bore you all with all the data, but wow is there data.)

| Ok, day two with the fancy GPS thing. And it occurred to me that
Kelli could be right. I am dang fast. I set the virtual partner to run
at 10 min per mile pace and I smoked him. I am so fast compared to
that guy. He was even talking smack. Mile 3 had that dang 1/2
mile uphill section in it. That is short for you in shape people out
there, but man that knocks me down every time. I had good pace going
up, over all on that mile was my fastest (7:36) I also hit 175 on the
heart monitor. That is something I'm glad to get back with. I used to
use a HM with my Polar watch, but that didn't have a good lap feature
so I stopped using it. I think I can push myself harder. I think I was
a little low on this run. I should probably be hitting 180, 185. I won't bombard you with this data all the time, I'm just experimenting with what I like to report, how it looks. 47:11/7:51 pace

| This just about killed me. I really struggled getting this run done. Had some serious hard times. I was telling the guy I was running with that I had some serious mind problems with going up the section from Vivan Park up South Fork to the parking lot about 3 miles up. Just as we started up the first hill a big gust of tail wind came, and I chuckled and told Bill that it must be God telling me that I can do it. I fell apart here and there, really struggled. Very hard 18 miles. The kind of hard that makes me question why I think I could go another 8.2. 2:45:08/9:11 pace Details: 1 0:08:10

Tried to pick up the pace here and there during each mile, not sure it did anything for me, but I did it.

| (singing "I want a girl with a short skirt and a looooooooooooooooooooooooong JJJJJJJJJJacket") Ok, got that out of my system. When that song comes on I always want to sing that part, but rarely have the breath to streach it out as long as I want to which is longer than the song does.
Got out very late. 9:45. Ran a new route, I have driven that street, but I didn't realize the steepness of the hill. But isn't that the way it always goes? Hills/slopes always seem bigger/steeper when you run them.

Well, I was shooting for at least 6, I started running was about .5 miles from the truck and work called. Turn around go back to the truck to discover as I was getting out of the truck I grabbed the wrong keys, locked the door, thus my truck keys were in the truck. Well, need to get to work, so I just ran to the office (1.5 or so). Worked on the problem, had my son drop some keys off to me, ran back to the truck. Now I'm well into the work day so I just called it good. Have a great day!

| "20" - I don't know why, but I feel like I should only report 15. I had to have my son to football by 7:30, and I am not a morning person, so I opted to put off (again) the big part of my running for the day to later. I ran 3 miles prior to Brady' game. 1 8:39 1.00 mi 6.9 mph 145 bpm

16 0:06 0.02 mi 9.8 mph 162 bpm I was disappointed that I saw my watch flash lap 15 right at the end, so I stopped and turned it off. Then I was looking at it and it read 14.97. WHAT? I don't know what happened. I think MAYBE I hit the lap button on that 8th lap. I just don't want to fall short on a race. 26.1 miles, and I fall over dead. Well, got home and was feeling ok, so I thought I would try and get some torturous treadmill miles in. Only made it 2. So, total for the day is "20".

Ever have those days where you feel like your made of lead, and the wind is blowing against you no matter which direction you are running? Well, thats me today. Plus my gut felt yuck all run long. Just glad I got out of bed and put some miles in the fitness bank. Now I'm off to the floor for my 100 push up challenge day 1. Have a great day!

| Ran up the canyon again, that has become my favorite run of late, I think
that the uphill is good to strengthen my legs and then the turn around and run
back helps me learn to relax and let the hill take me. If I get to run SG, I
think/hope the tired I feel on this won't hit me until 19/20, then its a hold on
close to 8:00 pace to the end. I think I am missing strength. I think that is
what the extra 6-7 weeks of training would have bought me. Right now I'm
sitting at about 7-8 weeks of "training". Well, that is what I will loosely
call it. It has been an increase of miles per week (except this week). But
lack consistent daily miles.
I'm tired, got done running, went to my sons football game, then left right
after for Lagoon, and just got home. Its 12. On my feet all dang day.

| Dusted off the ole running shoes, shook the cob webs off the legs muscles and went for a run this eve. Ran down to the fitness center then ran two laps around the outdoor track, then back home. Thought a lot about goals and desires for running. Not much in the way of decisions, but thought a lot about it. Some of my thoughts were about what was needed in order to reach my goal of BQ. I know what needs to be done, I just have to find the commitment. Well, not a bad run. 36:02/7:34 pace Details:

| Went with a friend of mine, he wanted to run with me so he could be faster at the 5k we are doing for the turkey tri. He made a big mistake and ate before he came. He couldn't go very good. He got 2.8 in before he called it good. I started running around the track there where he was watching his sons soccer game. After a mile he joined me for a lap, and pooped out again. That completed a fast mile for me, 7:19. 47:57/7:58 Pace Lap 1 8:09 1.00 mi 7.4 mph 150 bpm

| Ran the Fitness center loop so I could get some swimming in. Swam 400 m. I couldn't get my breathing right. This happens sometimes running when I just can't seem to get in sync. I go through the whole running thinking I need to find a way to get that one big breath. When I was swimming, I would get about 35-40 meters down the lane and feel like I had to take a couple deep breathes. Much the same as when running, but here I will inhale water if I'm not careful. Just couldn't get in sync. On the upside, this is the fastest I have run this route. I have been trying to remember to write what happens while run, or what I think about. My memory stinks, and when I'm running I always think "now remember to write about that." So tonight I passed a kid on a long board. He pulled out of a side street about 200 yrds ahead of me, I didn't think I stood a chance of catching him, it took me a half mile. He didn't know I was back there for awhile, then I think he heard my steps. He looked back at me, I noticed his pushing came with more frequency. But, I got him.

I have a friend that want to run this Turkey Tri 5k faster than he has run it in the last 3 years, so he keeps asking me to run it with him. Sasha's advice keeps echo'g in my mind. Phil' best time I think he said was 8:25 pace. The other day he ran with me, and stayed with me for about a half mile at 7:20 pace. He seems fast enough, but like Sasha says, he just doesn't have endurance. It showed again tonight, faded big with every mile. So, I was thinking, how much faster does the average runner run a race if they only run the same speed/distance for training? I run 3 miles everyday, 10 minute pace. How much faster might I run a 3 mile race? Some logic tells me no difference. But I know I run races faster than training. Hummmmm. Oh well. Good miles for me. This will probably be my longest run this week. Hopefully not my last this week.
Total: 1:18:41/8:01 pace With Phil: 26:22/8:23 pace
Just me: 52:19/7:51 pace

| Had to get a run in any run. I've been trying to hit a small goal. For some it is easily attainable, but for me.......anyway. I set a goal of getting to a hundred miles. First time I have set a goal like that, so I gave myself plenty o time. 1 month. I have 14 days left, and I'm just under half way (52 miles left). BUT I kinda let this escape my memory for a few days, and am playing catch up now. So, I figure I will get the goal, and then I can up the challenge, 120 in a month, something like that. This is just the bench mark, and a way to see if its something that take control of me and gets me out more often. Training for a marathon does that, I hope this does. 18:48/7:43 pace

Took my son to Las Vegas to watch the Beatles Love show. WOW great show. I loved it! It was one of those things that you just don't want to end. Amazing show. This morning I went for a run on part of the "strip". Was interesting to see the guys/and gals still passing out the porn cards, and the people just coming out of the casino at 7:30 am, still in their night "dresses" and "suits". I'm glad I live a different life. I did see about 10 other runners. It's always interesting to run in/down the big city streets. Although, difficult to keep a decent pace. When I got back to the hotel I realized I didn't get a picture, so I ran back about .7 miles or so and had someone take a picture of me with Lady Liberty in the back ground. The picture wasn't that good, and I forgot to turn my watch off, so that mile was a really slow pace. 44:46/8:34 pace

| Got out. Yeah! Legs felt heavy the whole way. Ran part way up 2000 N in Orem, that hill always takes it out of me, BUT at the same time I can tell my conditioning pretty good on that, out of shape it will knock me down to 9 min pace, in better shape I can hold somewhat close to 8. In shape I can stay under 8, close to 7:30 pace. The part I run is about .75 miles (gps reads 120' climb in .5 miles). Overall good run, shouldn't have been a slacker yesterday. 44:36/7:52 pace Details

| Met Phil to run the Turkey 5k route. Phil called it good at about 2.57. I think he will have a hard time with getting a better time on his 5k for this race. He just doesn't put a lot of training into running. He bikes and swims, but very little running. Added some on the end after Phil droped off. The top of my achillies is huting. Last time this was going on I needed to get new shoes. I haven't been keeping really good track of the miles on these shoes, but I doubt there could be more than 275. So I'm a little concerned. Last night I had a huge muscle cramp in my left calf. I think I need to drink more watter. (I say as I take a sip of my Raspberry Crystal Light). 40:42/7:57 pace Details

Ran up the canyon with my friend Bill J. Bill took his dog. Had a nice easy pace for the first 2.75 or so, then Bill slowed and let Lucky get some water from the river. I took off, went to Bridal Veil and turned around. Was running without Bill for about 1.5 miles or so, averaged about 7:40 for that stretch.
The weather was just beautiful!!!! I love running up the canyon. The trees still have some leaves and they are all colors. Wow. 1:08:18/8:04 pace Details

| Ran to the fitness center, swam 400 meters. Then ran home. The uphill part that is part of the Turkey Tri always takes it out me. Good run. About got hit by a car. Thats always a little exciting. This time I was just amazed at how bad of driving it was. The kid was turning left onto the street that I was on, I was turning right, he cut the corner and was almost on the sidewalk when he saw me, I started for the sidewalk, and luckly he went right. Had I been 3-4 steps further I would have been going for a ride. 46:37/7:41 pace Details

Met up with Marion, Smooth, Kelli and her husband Scott, Britta, Teena, Tarzan, John (husband of Suzzana), Leslie and her husband Harold, and I think I'm missing someone. I'm sorry. I am the worst with names. But it sure was nice meeting everyone. I think I would be a better runner if I ran with them all the time!
John, Scott and I ran most of the time together until Scott took off and left us. He is so strong. I need to do more hill work. I was fun meeting everyone. I wish I could have stayed around and socialized. I had told some friends that I would run the 5k part of the Turkey Tri with them, so I had to get back to Orem by 9. This was fun and challenging. There were some beautiful views of the valley when the sun came up. I hope Harold got some pictures of that, I saw he had his camera. 14.38/8:16 pace Details JRP Details 5k

| Have been lazy this week. I was helping a friend all day Monday and never got to run, and if I don't get out Monday I probably wont get out until Wednesday because I have a lot of things scheduled on Tuesdays. Ran over towards the old neiborhood this evening. I'm probably just a big wimp, but the hill from State St to Main or 400 E or 800 E on 2000 N. just beats me up everytime. Tonight I wimped out and went to Main, then down to 1600 N. Then I went more East to 400 E. Real runners go up 2000. :-( Room for improvement. 52:54/7:48 pace Details

I missed the running group running the Jordan River Parkway trail, BUT my son was starting defense on the peewee Pro bowl team. They won. Yeah!

AM - Went out on the streets, didn't have much time, so ran a quick route around my place, was hoping for 5, came out to 4.29. I still felt pressed for time so I called it good rather than adding more. Here all the details for that one.
PM - Took the kids to the fitness center. Again, want to get 4+ miles and that didn't happen. The track downstairs is only tolerable in bad bad weather. 6 + laps is a mile (I think its 6.1), I ran 18, then added one to make sure I got 3. Then I walked a cool down lap and thought that I really wanted more, so I ran some more. The last lap was 58 sec, and according to the sign on the wall there that equals a 6:00 min mile pace.

Went with Kelli and Scott, Britta, Leslie and Harold, Maurine, and Odee to Lehi and ran part of the JRP (Jordan River Parkway). Odee and Leslie tried to dance once which sent Leslie to the ground. Hope you are ok Leslie. Talk about strong runner, Scott and I could hear her fall 30 feet away, it was a hard fall, but she kept going for 8 miles or so. TOUGH woman! The run was good. We got lost at one point so that added some distance. Scott is so dang strong. Makes me want to get into he gym and lift. When I grow up I want to be strong like Scott. :-) It was good to see Kelli and Scott. Nice to talk to Britta, I met Britta last time, but actually talked for a minute. I did get chicked at the end. Dang kids, just to much energy for this old man. :-) Good run guys. Thank you for letting me tag along!

| Ok, no miles yet today. I will be getting out sometime, I hope. Here is the fun race! It is sooner than I thought though. Nutcracker 5k Saturday, Dec 6 - TuTu time! Who is in? Good
song that I will listen to in a few minutes when I go running. If you
have seen the movie Last of the Mohicans you will remember the song.
The movie has some pretty good violence, so here are two links, this one that has the song but no movie clips that I remember, and this one that has a bunch of clips from the movie, thus some pretty good violence. (Oh, kinda long as well) |

| Ran up Provo Canyon. Had an ok pace going up, was kinda cold. Pushed a little on the way down. Down hill sure hits the knees hard. But was nice to have a faster pace though. I'm looking forward to running on T-day for the Turkey 4 miler, then seeing everyone on Sat. 1:02:47/7:45 pace Details

Met a few people up in Lehi and ran the Jordan River Parkway trail. Nice run. There were people I didn't know, so SORRY if I miss your name. But people I did know, or just met were Kelli and her husband Scott, and Tyler S and his wife Kellie, and Michelle L., Smooth and I'm pretty sure I saw Maurine, I think she got there late. Michelle and Tyler and Scott took off for some speed work about mile 6. I was not able to keep up. Wish I was in better shape, then I could think about staying within shouting distance. Was nice seeing everyone out there. Kelli - Next time I will have Swedish fish for you, my move has got me all turned around and I forgot to bring them. Good run guys, thanks for dragging this old guy along.
1:45:19/8:05 pace PS - I just got back from my moms house, my sister made me a TuTu for this coming Saturday Nutcracker 5k. Who is going to be there? |

| Went to the gym and did about 30 min of spin, then ran a few miles. First mile was slow (8:20), then I was wanting to see how long it would take me to get it down under 8. That is harder than I thought. At mile 2 or somewhere near there I was about 8:10, then by mile 3 I was down to 8. I new I was under by 3.5. Dang mind games! I want to increase my speed, so I cranked it up to 6:40 pace here and there. Tried to keep that pace for at least .25 miles at a time. Gym was hot!

Yeah, ran the Nutcracker, with TuTu. Had a good run. I say this all the time, but I feel it more now, I need to run more often. I was loosing juice the last mile. Splits looked like this: Mile 1 : 7:19 Mile 2 : 6:34 Mile 3 : 7:38 last .1 : 5:18 (had a little speed left) Over all pace was 7:08
Happy to report that Scott, Kelli' husband finished 3rd overall mens. He ran in just under 21. That guy is strong. Their daughter Ashley took first in her age group. Yeah for them. The race was fun, a lot of TuTu's. I think the first place guy was from Runners corner, as well as first place girls. "Army Runners" son took 3rd overall. Fast kid, 13 years old. What a great day, I'll write more later, headed out for some regular running miles now.
******************** AFTER Run Run ************************ Needed to get a few more miles in, Made it 6 miles. Was difficult. While I was running I got a bad cramp in the middle of my chest. YUCK. Reminded me that I had had a cramp the whole time I was running the 5k. The 5k was a side stich, but the after run run in the middle just under the breast. It was really uncomfortable. About mile 3.8 I walked. That one stunk. Oh well, I'm alive. 49:01/8:03 pace
Have a great day!

| Actually got out of bed and went to the fitness center and ran on the indoor track. I don't like running when I'm cold. Winter running is so hard for me. Anyway, my pace came out quicker than I thought it would be. I was thinking I needed to run faster so I could have a better pace. Have a great day!

| Everyone don't fall off your chair. Yes I did go two days in a row and in the MORNING, and without two or three of you jabbing me in the back! (Don't mind you all pushing me, don't get me wrong) Started off thinking I would go 3-4, felt good so I went 5. Yesterday there was a guy at the gym that was faster than me and I tried to stay with him for a bit, nobody there today, so I'm a little surprised that my pace is as fast as it is. Probably should have slowed and taken it easy. Have a GREAT day!

| Decided to run up Murdock Canal Rd. None paved roads are harder to run on. At about mile 10, I got a text msg and started to walk to return the message. Forgot to turn my watch off, so my pace was really slow in that mile/2. Other than that, I'm tired, YEAH, got 13 in! Oh, and the wind heading North, just one thing to say about about that.... in the now famous word of Teena "STINK!"
Have a great day all! Details 1:47:00/8:11 pace.

| Went to the gym with my friend and got a little run in. I sure don't like running on the darn treadmill. And I miss my GPS when I run on the treadmill, miss the data. :-( Oh well at least I got some miles in. I'm worried that Sat will be very snowy on the JRP. 41:08/7:50 pace

Went up to Lehi and ran with a friend and a couple of her friends. We ran more hills than I am used to. There pace was slower than mine, so I would run out ahead for a bit then turn back to them, then go back out. That was hard on the up hills. I finished with 13, everyone else was around 9-11. Time was way slow, so decided early on in the run that I wasn't going to look at the clock, just the distance.

| Went to the indoor 6 million laps per mile track this morning. Legs felt a little sore from the hills Sat. Probably means I should have gotten my hind end out yesterday.
38:16/7:40 pace 43:24/7:54 pace including cool down .5 miles. Ok, didn't really cool down, there was this guy that is much faster than I and he slowed and I saw I was catching him, so I had to continue a faster pace after I had already run a lap SLOW. So it went like this 1 lap slow cool down, oh, theres that fast guy, FAST, caught him, ok, now I can slow down, ran one SLOW again. Silly I know, I couldn't catch him if he were running.

| Ran around the old Word Perfect Buildings, down 800 E. Then back home. I'm amazed how much it slows you down to be looking down at the ground when your running on the snow edge streets. The las mile the street had a little more shoulder and less cars so I was able to relax and look up instead of down. Pace increased. Felt good. Legs are feeling heavy. I think its time to stop the soda. So, Jan 2 NO SODA, no caffiene until after Painters. DB Out! 47:54/7:54 pace |
