Short-Term Running Goals:

Stay healthy!

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')

Ran up the canyon 4 miles, turned and came back down.  Overall pleased with the pace.  Wish I could have had a little more on miles 4 and 7.  The 7th miles should have been faster!  The heat of the 11:30 am run was getting to me.  I'm not used to the summer temps yet.  In a month or two 65 will be nothing.  :-)

Ran up Murdock canal road turned around and came back.  It was windy, I don't care for wind that much.  Seems like it blows down and up all the hills.

Most everything feeling good, no muscle pulls, achillies are a little sore for some reason, but feeling better than last week. First mile was feeling tired, couldn't get going.  Feel lucky to get it in under 9 min pace.

Ran the Murdock canal road again. Was having a difficult run. One of those that it seems like your having to work really really hard just to go. Its like "move legs, move." Kinda frustrating. Oh well.

Woke up late so cut run short. Only 4 miles. Average Pace was 7:36.

Ran up the canyon again, ran the 8 mile loop.  Had a tail wind going up, which was nice because I always feel like I have to work hard when its in my face, so mentally I just thought it was pushing me up the canyon.  30:58 for the 4 miles going up.  Figured I should be less than that going down even with a tail wind.  27:45 for the 4 miles coming down.  Worked hard on a couple of the miles.  Had one section that I hit 5:07 min/mile, wish I could hold that for several miles.  Anyway, good run.  Pleased with the speed. 

Total time 58:43/7:19 average pace. 

Splits: 7:28, 7:36, 7:55, 7:49, 7:00, 6:47, 7:18, 6:42.  YEAH, two miles under 7.

Have a great day.

Ran up Provo Canyon 6.5 and turned around.  Wish I would have stopped at 6.  (12 for the day)  Running up the last .5 hurt my left leg.  My achilles and IT were just hurting.  Toughed out the last miles, still had good time, but leg is hurting!  I think I will take it easier this next week and see if I can get these problems to go away.  By easy  I mean I will not really do much if anything trying to speed up the pace, and maybe take a few miles off.

Was thinking about everyone running Ogden, was glad to see the reports come in.  Congratulations to all!
