5 treadmill this morn.

5.5 treadmill this evening.

Fields/river road. 3.5 warmup, 7 MP, 2.5 cooldown. Much cooler this morning than it has been which was nice. The body felt much better after taking most of last week off. Felt like I was hitting my MP miles right on but I was working a bit to hard to hold that pace for a whole 26.2. Overall average was 6:08 instead of the 6:00 Im shooting for. Will keep plugging along and hopefully things will work out on race day. 

8 - Grapevine. Ran the dirt road twice for some extra miles. I was thinking of doing 12 but it was way to hot even with the 2 water bottles I took. Calves are a touch sore from yesterday.

4 - Treadmill. Put the kids to bed and did some easy treadmilling.

Parkway/Firestation. It started to sprinkle so I hurried and got ready to run but by the time I was back outside it was over. Dang.

Ran around the block with the boys then out on my own. Pretty well dead on this one. The moon coming up almost full behind Zions/Kolob sure looked beautiful tonight.

Treadmill. Didnt get out in the morn when it was nice and the last couple daytime runs have been way to much so I just stayed in on the treadmill. It was pretty tough for the first several miles but I started to feel a little better towards the end.

Up way to early after going to bed way to late. Warm with a head wind for the first 10. Felt like I was working to hard for the pace we where going. Got regrouped and started back. Felt better and thought I was going to do better the way back. Not so. Hit a couple of what I thought were decent miles (checking the watch they were barely 7:00 pace) then crashed hard. Ended up doing the jog/walk break/jog thing for the last 6 miles. Dave found me about a mile from the car and gave me a ride back. Glad its over cause my body needs rest badly.
