I swam 2-300 meter with a 5:45 and 6 minutes.

I then got kicked out of the pool by the old lady aerobics class. They Are Mean! You just stay out of their way or there will be hell to pay!

I poured 25 yards of concrete for a basement floor up emigration canyon.  I have to count that as some good quality workout.  Im tired and going to bed goodnight!

I ran 3 miles on treadmill to try to get my phlem boiling. Sick huh?  Im considering not doing the Ogden 10 miler this sat. Ill have to see.  By the way for those Ive talked to about a serious race with lots of beer and dogs in it check this out!  I cant even qualify for it! www.baevents.net/bigmanrun/information.html It'll have you rolling! 200+pound athletes! very very funny! I would puke after the first station! And where the heck am I going to carry my tip money at?

Ok I started my evening run in the rain and ended up at the gym running on the treadmill. I did a total of 6 miles at a 7 minute pace. I actually feel good when I run but very congested. The lady on the treadmill kept looking at me like I was Clyde! Trying to clear my throat. Sorry Clyde no offense! Your all I look up to right now!  You just dont understand when your an idol what people will do to try to be like you!  Well thats it for me youve been a great audiance. (Bowing out on a high note)

I ran last night in south jordan and it was in the high 40's low 50's. When I got up to Ogden this morning it was 28 degrees and there was snow still on the ground there!  Man I cant believe the differance 35 miles makes.  I ran the 10 mile race today and I could feel congestion in my lungs when I did a 3 mile warmup.  I wanted to try to keep a 5.30 pace for the first 4-5 miles until the hills came up but my legs were too tired from last week. I kept a short distance from Adam the whole race until mile 7.  That is the most brutal hill climb any 10 mile race can have it slowed my times to 7 minute miles.  Then, right at mile 7 Jon flipped his roller skates from under his shoes and said "see ya later suckers!"  Im going to have a review board look at it. Its deffinately suspicious!  Adam kept with him for a bit and then extended the lead from myself.  The last mile had about 2/10 of a hill climb and I thought maybe I could gain some time on Adam but my legs told me I was freekin crazy.  I had Chad right on my heels and I wanted to try to sprint the last .25 mile but there was so  much black ice and slick on the finish that I actually slowed way down.  That course was very dangerous! Very slick and I lost traction alot!  Almost fell several times! This race was too close to Moab. Thats all I got to say about that!

My time was around 1:00.27

Sorry I didnt run with you guys after, I had to cough my lungs up! Ill see ya out at the half!

Our Team finished 2nd,3rd,4th,5th, and I think cody came right in 6th.
