Late afternoon run out towards Payson on Canal road, I felt really crappy the first mile or so but better after that. I wanted to do a 40 minute run and that's what I did, my average pace was slow at 9:27 with a total time of 40:35.  I finished up with some upper body weight training and then some push-ups, it was a good start to the week.

See Ya tomorrow.

I wasn't able to get out this morning because of work so I tried to get out after work but it was blowing and raining so I opted for 40 minutes on the elliptical. It was a great work out and it was a good change of pace, after that I did some lower body weight training and some Crunches.

See Ya tomorrow.

I ran out towards Mini Gu Corner after work, I felt a little better tonight so I went a little further. My pace felt more rhythmic and I felt like I was in a pretty good flow. My average pace was 9:00 with a total time of 46:04, I finished up with some upper body weight training and then some push-ups. Its been a great week so far.

See Ya tomorrow.

I feel like I was robbed of my dignity today, I felt pretty crappy... But, at least I was able to get it done and not make any excuses which has been hard for me as of late. I just tried to keep as close to 40 minutes as possible, I went a little over. My average pace was way slow at 9:40 with a total time of 40:40, I finished up with some lower body weight trainng.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to Mini Gu Corner and then back to the house via canal road, I did not have a very good run this morning... First half was okay but then the wheels came off and it was a death march, but hey what do you expect for not running for 3 months. My average pace was 9:23 with a total time of 56:52, the plan is to go skiing a little bit later but we will see. I guess Provo Canyon is closed right now, it's been a good week of training and I'm really proud of myself.

See Ya Monday
