I am married with 3 lovely children 26, 18, &12and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue.  Love to run and be outside.  I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible.   Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

taking a recovery week this week and planing on racing on sat.  

Didn't hear my alarm which is weird because I kept waking up and thinking I should be hearing it, I was reading the clock wrong and my brain wasn't working.  So I hooked up with Melody and Rebecca on the way.  Ran easy, was tired.

8:03 avg. pace

Met at Melody's to go run over at OHS outdoor track, I like this so much better than the indoor track.  WO was 6-8x800, I have decided that when I get tired I will do shorter and faster repeats so I did 6x800 and 2x400 with one lap recovery.  Felt good on the workout.  

times-3:07, 3:06, 3:06, 3:08, 3:14, 3:07, 1:29, 1:23 Melody paced me for the last on and pushed me:) the last straight away.  Felt really good with the times and how I felt.

Started out alone and then picked up Rebecca ran some more and then picked up the rest of the crew.  Ran easy, was tired starting out but felt good after a couple of miles.  Had some hills in the run.

Stretching, supreme90 bi's, tris, and deltoids plus core

This was a brutal race cause of the wind.  As I was driving up to the Salt Air the weather was perfect in Orem and even in SL area, sunny and warm and no wind.  But as I got on I80 I could see the dust cloud and feel the wind driving in my car, I knew this was going to be a bad one.  Got there and stepped out of my car and yes the wind was brutal, knock you over brutal.  Went in and got my number and found Emily and Devera and warmup up with them for 4 miles, the wind was gusty and swirling, worse on the way back.  got back and went to the bathroom and started the race.  When we started the wind didn't seem quite as bad as when we had warmed and I felt good.  The plan was to be conservative on the way out and push it the way back.  So in the 6:50 range out and 6:40's coming back, well the wind was in our faces coming back so it was all I could do not to fall over.  But I did feel like I was really holding back on the way out.  Man stupid wind, I really wanted to see how I could do.

1-6:56

2-6:57

3-6:55

4-6:57

5-7:08 turn around at 4.65 and it was like running into a wall

6-7:37

7-8:02 this mile is always the hardest for me and I think the wind was the worst.

8-7:16 wind starts to let up a little

9-7:13

.33-2:27 

I guess I have to be okay with this because I can't control 40+ mph winds and everyone slowed down 30-60 sec. a mile.  It is what it is.

cooled down 2 along the course and helped in a kid that I pretty sure had a bad hang over, I could smell the alcohol coming from his pores.  Then I ran some with Jake, Andrea, and Fritz.
