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!

Went out after the kids went to school.  Did an out and back form my house, started feeling tired but after a couple of miles felt good.  I am getting to that point were I just want to do lots of miles and I feel good.  I love when running feels good even when you are tired.  I am not doing a long taper so will hit it hard again this week.

Got and met at Melody's house we ran to Marie's and got her and Julie.  Just a really easy run, Marie is coming off of taking 5 weeks off.  Nice cool morning. 5.5

Met McKenzie, Kent, and his friend at the 10 mile mark of Hobble and drove up to the same spot we did last week (left fork).  Did a 3.6 warmup up hill and turned for a good marathon pace run.  Started a little fast but the first mile is more down hill than the others.  Did 3.4 and had a drink break and then started the next 3.35 really easy and worked into the pace.  After the first set my vision stated going wavey/blurry again and had another pounding headache by the 2nd water break.  Was sick when we finished, came home and ate some pretzals and layed on the couch.  Thought is was going to last all day but about half hour later i started feeling better and ate a sandwich.  I can still feel the headache and feel gross but I do feel a lot better than i did.

Went down to Will's and ran up the path to the mouth and continued up the canyon.  Felt tired starting but not to bad after a couple of miles warming up.

I was able to run hard today and not get lightheaded or sick.  I use some drops called prolytes (a performance electrolyte drops) which I liked and Accel gel, which I have tried in the past and like because I has protein in it.  I was tired today though, leg just had that dead feeling to them but still ran decent.  Had 7 miles that where 7:08-7:20's with on being 7:48 on a complete uphill section.  I ran with Kent and Mckenzie out in Salem and SF, flat and rollers.
