I ran out to the Big Old Blue mailbox on canal road and then back to the house, I pretty much felt like crap but I was able to get her done! It was a little raining but not to bad, My pace was way slow again at 9:27 with a total time of 44:35, I'm not real sure why I am so slow as of late, about a minute slower per mile which is really weird... Oh well, such is life right? I mean, I gues it will eventually come back, At least i hope so.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran after work today and was able to get out just before 5 or so and I ran out to Mini GU and then back to the house all via canal road. I felt okay but my darn legs feel like big logs, heavy and no zip at all, I hope that this will eventually pass cuz it really sucks! My average pace was 8:58 and my total time was 54:19, it was nice to at least barley beat the 9 minute guy, I never thought I would feel like that was an accomplishment but I'll take what I can get.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to Mini GU Corner this afternoon and I felt pretty good, my legs felt a lot less clunky today than they have in the past which is a good sign. My average pace was a little better today to which was good too at 8:37 and my total time was 52:20. I ran into Kent Wing on the way back and it was good to talk to him, I hope I have a lot more days like today!

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out past the old barn on canal road towards Payson this morning, I didn't feel as good as yesterday but I was able to get her done. My pace was way slow at 9:24 and my total time was 38:44, I will try and run 9 miles tomorrow if my legs will let me! I guess we will see.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out to GU and then back to the house, ran most of it with Pat Loss, my legs did not feel good at all and it was a struggle the whole way.. I had a good time running with Pat though, but my legs were spent, average pace was a little slower than normal as we walked a little bit in there, most of the time it was sub 9 minute miles when we were running, total time was 1:14:01. It was a pretty good week of running but i am having a hard time getting my legs and my breathing where they need to be, I hope that will come around with more running. This has been a hard come back and I really didn't miss a lot of time but it sure feels like I have. Its all most like I just starting running and I'm starting all over again.

See ya Monday.
