My plan is to do one more 70 mile week with 17 or 18 on sat. and then do a two week taper for the marathon.   Right foot was alittle bit sore after yesterdays run so I iced it and worked it out my happy ball massager, it feels better this morning.  But will keep my eye on it through this high mileage week.

Got up and ran early be myself.  Started slow and ran easy  Felt alittle sluggish at first but felt ok by the end.  I often time feel pretty crappy on runs during my vistors stay.  So not to bad considering.  Ran from my house to the canyon and back.

1:22:35/8:14

Meet with Michelle, Sasha, Jeff, and Brad and ran the uneventful half.  I arrived early and warmed up 2.1 before in 18:03.  First off my left should has this huge cramp in it.  It start in my back where the daiphram attaches and moves up the my shoulder.  It killed me the whole run.  This was a tough run for me I want to give up at 10 and did stop and say I was done but Sasha wouldn't let me (which I am so glad I finished).  Started pretty chatty  but by 5 for me I wasn't chatting any more, but Michelle still was.

total time 1:34:07/7:11 so better than last time.  But I fell apart at the same place as well.  Need to work on that section of the half.  Happy with the results, allthoug I wish I would have felt better.  Thanks to the wonderful pacers:)

Went when the kids where in school.  Started at will's and went up to Bridal Vail falls and back.  Started easy (9:00) then went to a very easy 8:20-8:30 on the way up and pick up the pace on the way back but just because it is a slight downhill.  Ran one mile at a low 7 because I saw a girl who I always see when I do this run and I wanted to talk to her.  But as soon as I cought her she turned off the path.  Oh well.  So I slowed the pace back down because it was just suppose to be an easy run.  Felt good except the pain that is still in my shoulder,  I scraped it and worked on the huge knot that is in there so it does feel somewhat better but still is very annoying.

Got a massage last night, she scraped my whole back it is black and blue.  My shoulder problem was coming from my  scapular muscles, that is the worst with the bruising.  Hopefully that take care of the shoulder issue, I could still feel it this morning but it was better.  And alot of times things feel worse the day after a massage and then get better.

Got up this morning and meet MacK in SF we did our 9 mile riverbottom loop with an add on when we got back.  Felt tired so we ran really easy.

Went today when the kids where in school.  Started at my house and went to the canyon and back.  Felt pretty good, pace felt nice and easy.  Sunny and crisp out, but I over dressed.

Meet Michelle, MacK, and Kevin at the Arts park in Sprigville.  We drove up Hobble creek to the 5 mile mark of the half.  We ran the 5 up to the start and then turn and took it easy for 1 mile.  Then we started a 6 miles tempo, me and Michelle stayed together until the last half mile and Michelle pulled ahead a bit.

Felt better the longer I went.  Then we took it easy until the last two and I took off.  did a 7:04 and 6:57 last two miles.  Felt pretty good for the run.
