Lunch run out towards Payson via canal road, It was for sure warm but very tolerable. My Hamstring was pretty darn tight but it loosened up as I went a long and my IT band was jujst hanging in there for the  most part. My average pace was 8:41 with a total time of 54:03 and I finished up with my upper body weight training.

See you tomorrow.

I wanted to run with the Boys down Payson Canyon but I decided to stay down on the flat in Salem for another week and then next week I'll start running down the canyon, I'm just trying to nurse this Hamstring for another week. My average pace was 8:33 with a total time of 1:01:39, I finished up with some lower body weight training.

See you tomorrow.

I ran up Loafer Canyon but I didn't go all the way to the gate... Maybe next week. I felt decent on the way up but on the way down I felt really horrible, just super tired leg. My average pace was 9:20 with a toatl time of 59:00, I had 2 MP miles on the way down but they were way slower than I have ever had on this route, 8:14, 8:20. usually I am in the 7:20 range on these miles, hence the tired legs... Upper body workout and push-ups to finish up.

See you tomorrow.

The old legs are still a little heavy and tired but they are hanging in there. Out past Mini Gu Corner and back via the stake center, ITband was a little more sore this morning but the hamstring was a lot better which was a positive, I finished up with some lower body weight training.

See you tomorrow.
