What a busy day!  I drove most the day going to and from job to job to make sure everyone had what they needed.  Another 500 dollars in gas for all my trucks to move around.  If you were wondering, yes im invested in an oil field.  lol Actually I do have a gas stock that does pretty good.  I got home at 7: 15 pm and realized I didnt have time to eat and run so I just went and ran after a long day.  I did 10 boring miles against traffic and I sure do hate running in traffic.  Im back now and hopefully I can wind down enough to sleep and do it again at 5 am.

Ran on the Riverton Track this morning again, this time with Trick and Misty. Did 6x200's, 4x400's, 2 mile warmup and 2 mile cool down. Daddy's tired! Him needs rest, too bad he has to go to work now!

 

I ran 7.5 around Daybreak temple and then up around the new daybreak lake and around back down home.  I finished at 9:45 and boy is it dark now!  Nice and cool though! Now I must unwind, release the hounds, ice the calves, stretch the piggies, and whatever it takes to sleep and wake up early and do it again!

I ran 9+ miles with the BB group this morning.  I ran with Scott, Peggy, and Lynette.  It was a brisk morning. Around 55 degrees at the river bottom.  Brrrr!  Good thing we were working it enough to not freeze.   My legs are tight and thats ok. We did a down hill run with some hill at the end.

No run this morning,  I absolutely needed to sleep in.  When I got home from work yesterday,  I slept for 2 hours then did some bids, ate dinner and went to bed and Im starting to feel better now.  Ill try running before we go out of town to Bear Lake to do some quality wakeboarding and skiing and a 20 mile run up there at the high altitude.

Started on east side of Bear Lake 20 miles from Tricks parents Cabin.  I had Tricks husband Dan Drive me, Misty and Charity around.  Misty and Charity did 14.  Trick and I went 20.  Trick wasnt feeling good and we made it 10 miles in 1:37.  She told me to go without her and get her hubby to come and get her.  My goal was to do the last 10 in 1:10.  I did my first few mile at around a 7 minute pace and then decided to do 1 mile tempo runs.  My first mile was a 5:41, second was a 5:31 and third was a 5:22.  I ran 6 miles off and on with tempo like that.  I ended up smashing my 10 mile goal time with a 1:04!  I felt really good.
