Payson Park loop but I cut out the rollers, struggled through this run but thats okay. I had a damn VPB again and then after that my stomach issues I has to battle the rest of the way, I'm not sure what that is about. My average pace was slower than normal 8:46 with a total time of 54:42, it will be slow and steady I guess until I can get back into the groove.

See you tomorrow.

Out to Mini Gu corner and then back to the house vi canal road, I still was low on energy and my pace was slower than normal. I felt good on the last mile which was nice, so I hope I can turn a corner so to speak. My average pace was 8:40 with a total time of 52:53.

See you tomorrow.

I felt okay but on Mile 5 my heart rate was thorugh the roof and the pace was only at 8:29, so not real fast... I'm thinking I was deydrated where it was so damn hot and I'm probably not use to it. My average pace was 8:29 with a total time of 53:01, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups.

See you tomorrow.

Well it was a special day today, I felt pretty good until I had 3 miles to go but then I really struggled to the point where I collapsed when I go home. I had to have my son Ethan and my wife help me in the house. Can you say Heat exhaustion! I have never had that happen to me before and it ws not fun... But I got her done. My average pace was way slow at 9:01 and my total time was 1:58:20, It was a tough day.

See you Monday.

I ran out to Mini Gu and back this morning and I have finally had a good run which was a good positive thing. i felt Like I did about 7 weeks ago before I got that damn cold. I had 5 MP miles with one that was sub 8 pace at 7:58, my average pace was 8:11 with a total time of 50:19. Very nice pace and effort and my lungs seemed good breathing wise. I just have to stay at it these next few months.

See you tomorrow.

I ran Payson Canyon this morning. I started at the Ranch and then I ended at Beer Can Flats, I think I will go all the way to the school next week which is 11 miles. All my Miles were MP miles and my average pace was 7:54 with a total time of 1:04:07. My Slpits were like so 8:09, 7:44, 7:46, 7:45, 7:53, 7:47, 7:46, 8:10, I just took it easy on the downhill and I tried not to push it to hard this first time down. Good run.

See you tomorrow.

Usually route this morning but I extended up the river trail a little farther than last week. I knew this morning was going to be a slow pace day with my quads still messed up from the canyon run on thursday, so I just did what I could and worked on my mental game a little. My average pace was 8:56 with a total time of 2:24:02, the last few miles I had to really talk myself through them as my legs were getting pretty darn tired.

See you Monday.

Payson Park Loop but I didn't extend. My legs were just trashed this morning and they had no energy or zip at all, I felt like I was in quicksand. My average pace was 9:14 with a total time of 57:30, I finshed up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups. Heres to better days ahead.

See you tomorow.
