8 miles this morning. 5 by myself and then 3 more with the team. Good start to the week.

6.5 miles again this afternoon. Mile repeats with the team. Ran the first couple with Rachel and Laynee. All right around 6:00. They felt relaxed and it was good to see them run these so well.

13 miles starting at 24th Street up to the old stomping grounds in Ogden. Brought back a lot of memories. Got rained on a little bit. The temps were the exact same as down in St. George. Awesome. 7:16/mile.

Another 4.5 miles along the Ogden Parkway after meetings. More memories came flooding back. I loved living in Ogden.

Super tired from the long drive yesterday so I slept in. Much needed. 8.75 miles total this afternoon. Did a few 200s and then some 800s. Very excited to see the team this year for track. They are looking great already. Great group of young men and women to work with.

Ran with Steve on more of the Red Mountain 50k course. I think I have ran on every section now. Not a screaming fast course but it will be absolutely beautiful. I am excited to do it.

We ran the Black Brush and Suicidal Tendencies sections. It was perfect weather. Pushed for a few miles here and there. Overall felt pretty good. 21.25 miles total. Great way to end the week.

Got super sick yesterday and was even sicker today. Cold chills and then would get super warm. Ended up staying home from work. I hope I get over this quick.

Needed to go home after school since Katey was super sick. I guess this week is my sick week for the year. Glad it is almost over.

Hopped in with the girls to do the workout. We ended up having to go run on Webb Hill for the repeats because of the soccer game at the high school. Quite warm today. Still hacking up a lot of stuff.

Met up with Steve at the Summit and ran with him and then Billy Boy for a bit. Felt decent last night for the first time all week so I decided to go a little longer this morning.

We did the loop from the Summit all the way in to the fields and then back down the river trail. Ended up pushing the last couple miles pretty hard and had a couple miles under 5:40. 6:52/mile overall. Felt good to push a little after such a long week. I guess this happens sometimes.

Had work off today and decided to run the last part of the Red Mountain 50k. Started at the house and then did Black Brush and then all the way to the finish at Unity Park. Extended back to the house and called it good for the day. Finally starting to feel like I have some life again in the legs.

Did a progression run with the team for 7 miles. Ended up starting with the top boys and then helped out the younger boys. Great run for the entire team. Happy with how it turned out. 2 mile warm up and a little cool down gave me 10 for the morning. 6:25/mile.

I got home and Oliver wanted to go run around the track at Snow Canyon High School. I pushed him in the jogging stroller and once we got there he wanted to run up and down the stadium steps. Fun to watch him. 7 miles total.

Decent way to end the week. Happy with this week more so than last week.

Got up a little early and went to the running center. I ran 3 miles out and back along Telegraph towards the outlet stores. Got rained on a little bit but it actually felt pretty good.

Met up with Steve and James and did a big loop into Washington Fields. James and I extended around Foremaster to did 17 miles for the run. Ended up with 20 for the day. Cooler temps and not a lot of rain made for a great run. Happy with a 20 miler. 

Decent way to end the week but I need to get to bed earlier to make my mornings better.
