I ran out towards Payson Park via canal road, I didn't extend all the way to the park but I wanted an upbeat run and I was able to accomplish that. I felt pretty good with an average pace of 8:11 and  total time of 50:59, the legs felt good. I will go light tomorrow, maybe 3 to 4 miles tops and then another 6 miler on Wednesday and then lite again until Saturday where I would like to do 10 Miles, then its easy from there until the race.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran up to the Mailboxes in Woodland Hills and then back to the house the same way, via Mount Loafer School,  its a good little uphill and downhill run. I pushed the uphill and just went relaxed on the downhill, I just let the downhill do the work. I felt pretty good both ways, my downhill miles were 7:25, 7:14 and I wasn't pushing hard at all it felt really smooth and comfortable, my average pace was 8:16 with a total time of 51:25...  Its time to start tapering down from here so on Saturday I will do 8 to 10 miles but Thursday I will do a lite run, maybe Friday.  Then next week I will run Monday and Tuesday and Thursday and that will be it, they will be really lite miles and easy easy.

See ya tomorrow.

Easy run out past the stake center to the T and then back to the house via canal road, I just tried to enjoy the morning. The legs feel pretty good and I hope I am peaking at the right time, it looks like its going to be a hot one for St. George... I hope we get a storm in that cools things off, oh well we will just have to get through it. My average pace was 8:31 with a total time of 29:25, it was a beautiful morning.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to Mini Gu Corner and then back to the house via canal road, after getting back I was feeling okay so I went out past the old barn on canal road to add on a couple more.... I felt okay today, not overly strong but not real weak either not sure what to think about next week. My average pace was 8:24 with a total time of 1:24:53 I had 2 MP miles around the 8 minute pace, I ran into my brother and his son and we caught up and talk a little about next weekend, we are all hoping it will cool down some but we have no control over that I'm afraid.

See ya Monday.
