I run therefore, I am!

Ran from my house up towards daybreak and met Danielle halfway. She tried returning a redbox video but the machine was full so she ended up running the whole way with a video. It rained on us for about 30 minutes of the run.

I ran 6 miles with Danielle this morning then went to work.

Tonight I did a 1 mile warmup and then 8x400's at a 1.13 acrerage. I got to try put my new Suunto watch I won from the Ogden half marathon. It was pretty close with the foot pod. I then ran 2 miles cool down. There was a lot of runners there tonight. Plus all my team USA skater friends I have befriended over the past 8 years. I saw a lady that came up to me and had the USA warmups on and she reminded me of how I used to talk to her when she was trying out and didn't think shed ever make it. Pretty amazing to see the outcome over a few years. Very inspiring.

Wow my legs are tired after that workout I had last night. Iran the rigormortis out with 4 miles at an 8 pace.

Went up to the lake with Misty and met Danielle for a run. Misty made it to 6.4 miles in the time I ran 8 miles so she is getting better even though she said she felt like shes getting slower. I ran the 2.3 remaining back home with a pushed tempo pace. I could only get to a 5:45 mile and that was going downhill. I really need to get my butt in gear. I cant see a 4:55 pace for a while! I can do it I know I have it in me. Just have to build more base and rock it like a hurricane.

Ran from my house 1.4 miles and met up to Danielle and ran the rest with her. I dont get much time in the mornings to run. from 5 till a little before 6.  It was a really warm morning. Felt great. Oh I saved Danielles life this morning crossing Bangerter. A car ran a red light on a turn and I stopped her from getting hit. If  I wasnt there shed be a goner for sure, he was flying around the corner and didnt see us till his lights shined on us which was about 5 feet away.

5 early miles. Ah ah ah

Ran 6 miles with Danielle. Its starting to try easier to wake up at 4.30 now for both of us. Plus it helps to have someone there to keep you accountable.

Ran with Danielle early this AM.

Did a mile warmup on the Oval then did 4x400s at 1.13 then 4x800s at 2.34,2.33,2.35,2.32. Then a cool down. I had some stomache issues.

Started at my inlaws house in Lewiston, Utah. I ran the 10k course they have on the 4th of July here. A Collie decided to run with me for 4 of the miles. Funny dog. I found its owners when I was on my way back. I got into town and then ran the 5k route for the same race which goes to the Idaho border. I then came back to the ranch and I think a total of 5 vehicles passed me. So quiet!

Ran from my house this evening up around Daybreak lake and did a loop. Then over to 104th and down to 4800 W. and by the Temple and around 114th and down to my house. I didnt see one person out running, walking a dog, or even the creeps out.  It was almost eerie. It was windy and I could actually breathe the cold air instead of the smug from California. Im not talking emissions from their hybrids either. Im talking the smug attitudes from them driving a car and thinking they are better then everyone else because they are introduced to all that technology.  We must destroy all the hybrids in San Fransisco immediately!  Even George Clooneys! To much smug coming this way....
