| Met Rachelle and Julia at their place and we ran over to the start of the Onion days 10k, legs are not fresh at all. Didn't register just wanted a tempo like run. This course is not aided and the last 2 are uphill so I pooped out at the end. Cooled down 4 miles after some server stomach cramping, this has been happening a lot lately esp. After a hard effort. Did the 10k in 42 mins and some change my splits where 6:35, 6:40, 6:47, 6:40, 7:18, 7:11,1:30. It was hot and very humid.

| I did what I set out to do today, I wanted to run hard but not so hard it beat me up to bad. This course is AIDED, but I needed a good fast half before st George. I felt decent today, not great but okay. It was quite warm and humid and that always takes its toll on me plus by back just doesn't handle the steep down and I'm not the greatest down hill runner. But I still feel good about my effort and the race. Started the race with Rebecca and we where together for about the 1st 5 miles then she pulled ahead, I wanted to stay comfortablely hard and what I was running was about at that. Plus she is just a better downhill runner then me. The first part felt really easy, the middle was about the same. But for some reason my stomach was buggy and when I got to the last 5k I couldn't push it like I wanted. Got words of encouragement from my mom and spencer out on the course and my sweet father in law was their at the finish to cheer me on. Wasn't able to take any fuel due to my sour stomach, need to figure this one out before SG. At the finish they had all the times and places messed up so they thought Rebecca was 2nd and I was 3rd, I think a guy must have ran under a girls # or something because there was no other girls in front of us, many people could attest to this.
My splits are 6:08 6:02, 6:07, 5:50, 6:02, 6:02, 5:59, 6:01, 6:09, 6:13, 6:39, 6:45, 6:39, :41 (5:31)

| My legs were dead, details later.
I knew going into this race my legs would be tired , but I was hoping I would still be able to break 1:30. I warmed up with Ericka and Kassi 4 miles and made sure I was fueled well and practiced taking a gel in the race. I felt good the 1st half of the race and then when we started the downhill stuff at 7 my legs felt like they did the day after Nebo. The 3rd place girl cought up to me at this point and I was thinking crap I don't have it in me to hold her off. Well I did until 12.5 and then there is a short steep uphill that killed my legs completely off and she passed me like I was standing still, I let her get to far ahead and couldn't catch back up to her. I did close the gap but my legs were toast with melted butter on them. I did run a very small PR in the race so I shouldn't complain but i just wish I would have stuck it out and helf off the very fine lady that passed me. I would like redemtion on this course I do like a good honest half and this one is very honest, so I hope they do it again next year (I have heard rumors they aren't going to do it anymore due to low turn out). Cooled down with Kassi and Ericka 4 more miles and my legs felt like I had just ran Nebo again.

| Met Rebecca and Amanda at the mouth and ran up Melanie at canyon Glenn. We where about to Vivian park when a biker told us there was a moose up the trail. We ran cautiously and where totally startled by a huge moose in the trees by the river. We didn't run past it just turned and went back down. We did 1 mile repeats. Legs where tired so only did 3 and backed off on the last one. 6:01, 5:57, 6:19

| Rebecca and myself drove up to the forest access up south fork and ran down 2.5 miles then started our workout with only half mile of the steep down hill then in the path. The workout was 3x3 miles with a mile in between progressively getting faster each time. The 1st one was the hardest and I didn't think my legs could finish but I felt better the longer we went. Up top it was freezing, 32 degrees and frost everywhere. I am not ready for that:(

| HiiT core was suppose to do this Thursday but I felt like I was getting sick so I took a nap that day instead so I'm doing it today.
Starting a slow taper for SGM. I'm conflicted on what to do this week, while I would like to repeat my 800 workout, I haven't done a lot of track speed so I'm hesitant on doing this. I have read so many conflicting thing on what to do these last 2 weeks. Ultimately I need to do what works best for me and I know that. This year I have just kind of made stuff up in the fly so I'll probably just do that. So my plan is to run in the ball park of 50 miles, 2 solid workouts and a long run of 10-12 probably in one of the workouts.

| Today was one of those day it would have been better just to stay in bed. My plan was to do 6-8 mile tempo at MP. We did a loop that is not aided and has some uphill in it but I felt like I would still be able to do 6:45 pace. Right off the bat I was not feeling good by the 3rd mile my right quad was cramping and shutting down. My legs just were not responding so I decided it was better just to call it quits. I hate not finishing a workout but it really wasn't going well.
