| RACE DAY CHAMP! so much for running through this week. It's okay. I'm 89% happy with my training over the last month and tomorrow will be interesting. Last day of my job so my days of 2 runs of 10 miles each I have dreamed of is almost at hand. |

Snake River Canyon Half Marathon (13.1 Miles) 01:26:54 | | Easy Miles | Marathon Pace Miles | Threshold Miles | VO2 Max Miles | Total Distance | | 0.90 | 13.10 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 14.00 |
| The first half marathon I have run since TOU 2009, (which was a disaster). I was fairly nervous about this distance, but my expectations were that I could run 1:26-1:29. Lets be brief shall we? I started out BAD. Real bad. I ran a good 6:47 first mile, but it hurt my outer calves and quads bad. My splits show it, 6:59 second mile, 6:56 third, 6:57 fourth, and finally the culminating awful 7:05 mile. wow, suckkssss. Then I relized something... The soreness was decreasing. My breathing was not labored and I did not have anaerobic burn in my hamstrings or calves. I just screwed up bad by not getting a proper warmup. If anyone wants to give me advice on appropriate warmups, please, I am all ears. Then the turnaround, and I understood that it was going to be okay. I could hopefully run some pretty heavy negative splits, turns out I was right. last 7 miles were 6:26, 6:33, 6:39, 6:23, 6:26, 6:25, 6:15 So, ended in 1:26:54. I pulled in my old High School science teacher the last 4 miles which was part of the reason I did as good as I did. I'm happy with this. I may sign up for the Salt Lake Marathon just so I can get my BQ out of the way this year. I should be in 2:55-2:59 shape in a month or so. 1: 6:47 2: 6:59 3: 6:56 4: 6:57 5: 7:05 6: 6:43 7: 6:26 8: 6:33 9: 6:39 10: 6:23 11: 6:26 12: 6:25 13: 6:15 .1 5:51 pace |

AM: Library out and back: While this wasn't the hardest run I have done in the last few months it was among them. Back at 5000' and grinding up the hills like all the other kids around here. So long Sea Level!
PM: 5 on a much flatter, kinder out and back |

| AM: DEATH MARCH So I'm getting 150+ grams of protein a day but evidently that 13 mile tempo run last saturday is still in the legs. Because after 15 yesterday I barely survived this morning. I have re-evaluated my training this week, instead of shooting for 15 a day wed-saturday I am going to roll it into a 7 day total of 70-80 miles instead. |

AM: infinitely more kind to me than yesterday. I ate some sugary food instead of running 10 on an empty stomach and the lack of the afternoon 5 yesterday helped. Ran near negative and almost had it in me for a 3 mile tempo at the end, but almost doesn't build fitness.
PM: PM: Felt so good. Turned it into more of tempo run 3+ miles at sub 7 pace. How am I running 10-15 miles a day and staying fat? remarkable |

| I have really good strength right now, or at least better than I have ever had. 4 miles is less than ideal but I think I need to look ahead and be ready to run a sub 3 hour marathon next month. |

runners of the week are Jordan Hasay, who after getting beat two times by Sheila Reid throws down the double winning the 3k and mile. She is so fun to watch run. Then Miles Batty, what a champ. Lost all the weight from his mission and is shreding everyone. 
AM: 10 I felt like my chest was going to explode, but I ran pretty well. AVG: 7:54 PM:5 Felt really really good AVG 7:03? sounds fast, but garmin says this

| I don't know exactly what's going on, I just feel off. I still need to take accountability and try my best. If I am going to run a full next month, I need to be at racing weight though, so even with my running today not what I wanted I can still do my best. |

| 7 miles in the morning.. I'll take it. My calorie deficit right now is somewhere between maybe 200-500. Very hard to keep accurate counts of consumed and burned. 4 X 400 1:12-1:19. Not great, but at least I was moving faster than I have in a lonnngg time. I think I'll run 1:26 or better in the striders half. |

12 miles through the desert trails outside zion national park. It was amazing but my trail running skills are essentially akin to me running down the train tracks towards inevitable injury. i land so hard. I messed up my ankle on this run forsure, so i need to change some things up. After messing up my ankles 4 miles out, I ran back and it started feeling better. I then got lost, but I knew I was close to the car so I didn't worry to much, ended up going 12 total. then I soaked in the Virgin river, which really really helped the stiffness I have been having in my right calf. |

5 miles on our treadmill that won't go lower than 1.5 incline. Its epic. It was too much so i just got off and ran outside in the snow and I felt amazingly strong for 5.I don't know, probably the low milage last week and the Virgin river soak relieved all the soreness in my legs. In any case I am planning on the striders half marathon this weekend. PM: very good 9. I have no idea why I suddenly feel so good. It must have just been that sore lower right leg. some quad pain, and that left foot pain that is most likely a stress fracture, but overall really good. One mile in 6:20

I cannot explain how great I feel. These 10 mile runs feel like 4. My legs feel fit, and my strength is amazing or at least better than it ever ever has been. Signed up for the striders half this saturday! |
