6 miles this morning.  Did some of it with the cross country team.  Weather is slowly starting to warm up.

Another 6 miles this afternoon around Ivins.  Warm out but wearing the Camelbak makes it manageable.  Finished once again at my parents' house to swim in the pool as a nice reward to myself.  I will do more easy miles this week with a long run on the trails Saturday.  I will then do more 50k specific work next week.  This will include a few Meat Grinders up Webb Hill.  Memories :)

8 miles in the morning.  I did 3 miles with the kids and then did a 5 mile loop from the high school, to Mr. D's, and then back up along the golf course.  Nice morning.  Going to see April tonight.  Yeah!

7 miles this morning.  I ran 3 miles before practice and then did 4 miles with most of the team.  Slowly but surely we are getting there.  This will be a fun group this year.

6 miles this afternoon in the balmy 100 degree weather.  Nice little stroll around Ivins.  6:42/mile.  Felt alright throughout the run despite the heat.

7 miles in the morning.  I ran 4 miles with some of the kids over towards Little Valley and then another 3 miles after wards.  6:58/mile.  Getting warm in the mornings.

10 miles this evening.  I went to the club run at 6pm and no one was then.  I decided to do my own loop out towards Bloomington and back.  The wind was blowing pretty bad but I kept the pace honest throughout.  Dave met up with me on the trail and said that everyone was meeting at 7pm tonight.  I didn't get the message but oh well.  I averaged 6:37/mile.  Nice solid run tonight.

Easy 6 miles this morning.  3 of them with the team over to Hidden Valley and then 3 after wards on my own up along the Arizona Strip.  Overcast this morning made it perfect running weather.

 Two 10 mile loops out in the desert this morning by Little Black Mtn.  Dave joined me on the first loop which was fun and then I did the second one all by myself.  We did the first loop in 1:11:40 and then I did the second loop in 1:09:18.  Nothing blazing fast but good run overall.  I wanted to get some good fluid and food intake in preparation for my upcoming 50k.  I think I might have a special drink that will help me out.  Great weather for a run this morning.  Fun to chat with Dave on the first loop.

Another solid week of decent base mileage.  I will do a few key workouts next week.  Two words: Webb Hill!
