2 mile speed walk with my pregnant wife.  Nice pace for the entire walk :)

I ran my same route as I did on Thursday.  I didn't get out until the afternoon but it helped because it was much warmer.  The problem was that the wind was blowing pretty hard.  Lots of people range shooting and riding mountain bikes out on the trails.  I got some weird looks from people but oh well.  

Nice finish to the end of the week.  I am happy with the way things are going with the running lately.  Everything is slowly coming back to the regular routine.

On a different note, we went to the doctor this week and he said the baby could be here before January 13th.  Full term for Katey is on December 20th.  I guess I should hurry and get the baby room painted if she comes sooner than expected.  Yeah!  I can't wait to be a dad.

Coach Fielding! It's Brady! I found this website thinking it would be a helpful way to track miles. Then, surely enough you are on the front page!

I really need your help with something. I have been getting into some longer runs lately and I have been noticing my times are staying right around 7 minutes per mile on my long runs. I now that I need speed training but, when it comes to doing it I have no idea what I am doing! If you have any drills or techniques that you could share with me it would be MUCH appreciated.

Thanks for everything coach!!!

Jan. 14th is the greatest day of the year, but I'm sure your wife won't go for that one.

On a different note, have you ever ventured across the wash onto the rim trails. That mesa is beautiful and a little bit higher elevation-wise. In fact, there is a juniper or two up there. With all the trails up there, you could probably get in 8 or 9 pretty easy. Plus there are some great views. The trails are pretty new, but the bikers love them about as much as Barrel Roll. BTW, your pace the other day on the turkey trot was fabulous. Keep up the dirty running. Maybe we'll run into each other out there someday.
