Met Brayden and James at 5 AM at Braydens house. Then up to the Mt. Oly shoreline trail. Headed north until it reaches the Cove houses and then we looped back down through the neighborhood. After dropping Brayden back at his house James and I added 2 miles. Felt decent the majority of the time. There were a few climbs on the trail that got me huffing a bit. Lungs still a bit congested so once that clears I think my runs will feel a little better.

Met at Braydens again with James. Ran up to the shoreline trail on Mt. Olympus and did 1 loop around onto the main trailhead and then back up to the shoreline trail. Wasn't feeling great until about mile 4-5. Then felt good and hit a groove feeling strong. Ran back on the shoreline and across Wasatch back to Braydens

Met up with Jake, James, and Brayden for another run on the shoreline trail along Mt. Olympus. Felt pretty good the entire run. Those 5 AM starts are tough though.

Met James for a 7.25 mile loop through Holladay/Millcreek. Then I added 2.75 from BCC down the trail around the pond and back to my car to round out the 10. Legs didn't have any pop today.

Was going to meet James for a run but the bed monster swallowed him while. Ran the usual 8 mile loop in Holladay/Millcreek. Felt much better today and my pace seemed easy at a 7:30 avg. now off to Hawaii for a week.

North Shore Hawaii run. Ran from Turtle Bay Resort and went towards Halei'wa for a few miles and then turned around and ran back. All along the Kam highway. A bit sketchy in some parts due to some road construction and narrow bridges with traffic.

Met James and Josh for the usual route. Added one extra block which makes up the .36. My body has been all sorts of messed up since returning from Hawaii.

James had this crazy idea to run with Brayden from Lambs Canyon to Brighton Ski Resort. I decided to give it a try even though I was fairly certain I wasn't in any kind of conditioning to actually do it. Met up and the ran began good enough. By the time we dropped into Millcreek canyon, my legs were starting to feel really heavy and I was considering bailing out there after 6 miles. Decided to see how I felt as I went up the road to the upper parking lot. James stuck with me and we decided to bail on this adventure and leave it for another day. Got to the parking lot and snagged a key from Daniel and then ran back down to his car and drove to get our cars. I do want to do this run again once I have more long runs under my belt on the trails.

Ran the LCC loop with Hille. Was fairly warm today and I can tell that running here is much more difficult than the Hawaii runs. Probably because I have been lazy since returning home. Ran into Brayden who was on his way up to run the Quarry trail.
