Had planned on running a 8-10 today but when I woke up to pouring rain I decided to wait a bit and see if it let up. Got out and dragged my neighbor around for 6 miles. The rain stopped right as I walked outside and was perfect weather for the entire run.
Good luck to all those running St. George this weekend!

Woke up with a sore back and just had one of those 'not feelin' it' days. Tried to push to under 7 min/mile pace for the last little bit and struggled to maintain it. Will start to add more speed workouts to try and get some of it back.

Ran along Wasatch south past La Caille up the hill to 9400s. Then crushed a garmin segment up the canyon and back down to the light at Wasatch. Avg. pace for segment was 7:02. It is about 1.5 miles up the canyon and then 2.25 back down to the other light. Once I got to the bottom of the hill I just kept it rolling until I only had 1 mile left. Felt nice to see some sub 6:00 pace for the downhills. Need to get more of that in as I begin my BQ training for next year. The injury early this year really took its toll on my speed.

From the house down to the BCC trail and down around the retention pond and back up. 3 miles down and 3 miles back up. Really beats up the legs.

2 in the neighborhood, then out to Danish and then down to Bengal. Finished up Bengal and in to my house. Tried to keep a bit of a more up tempo pace, but not marathon pace.

Ran with my neighbor for the first time in 2 weeks so the pace was slowed down again. I would run out ahead and then back track to find him and just did that the entire run. He ended up with 7.5 miles and I finished with 9. Then I did an extra mile solo to get to a nice even 10.
It was a nice crisp fall morning.

Ran with my neighbor for 7.5 miles. Then dropped him off and decided to round it off to 10. Did lots of hill climbing this morning by choosing an unfamiliar route.

Was solo today so I decided to try and get a little tempo work in. Ran 2 miles in the neighborhood and then decided I would pick it up for 4 miles at marathon pace. Started to get a crazy bad stomach ache around mile 3, so I had that to deal with for the next 3 miles. Once I finished the 4th fast mile, my stomach felt terrible so I stopped for a second and tried to get rid of the pain. After a minute it started feeling better and continued with my run.
I noticed a couple of things today. Why is it, that when you are running in the dark, cars turn on their brights as they pass you? I was blinded several times this morning. Also, why do people get up so early to smoke weed? I ran through a couple of areas where I could tell someone was out smoking, it was 6:25 or so when I ran through there. Seemed strange.

5 miles around the neighborhood with my neighbor and his wife. Then did 2 solo at a faster pace.
Yesterday afternoon I was sitting on the floor cleaning up a mess my kids had made. I went to stand up and my left knee popped pretty loud. It hurt pretty bad for a few seconds is all and then felt alright. No noticable swelling, but if I bend all the way down, I can feel a tightness on the back side of my knee. Todays run didn't seem to agrivate it at all. Fingers crossed it is nothing.

Ran the Danish loop after the usual neighborhood warm up. No knee pain after the popping on Sunday. It is getting colder in the mornings and the weather shows possible snow next Wednesday. Might be time to break out the tights.

Ran solo which meant I could sleep in a little bit longer. Got out and ran through some thick fog for the first 5 miles. It was fitting with Halloween this weekend. I was spooked by a dog running on the sidewalk next to me, but I couldn't see the dog. Maybe I was just imagining things.
