A runner must run with dreams in his heart

wow! what a freaking windy day.  I scheduled a massaged for right after my run so i fad to go out.  fetl pretty good the entire time pace was not bad either.

Went out for a late run; what an amazing day.  The weather was amazing I felt great and my pace was really good too.  My cold gear may have to be put away... knock on wood.

Super tired.  Been super busy at work and have been putting in a lot of hours worked 6 days this week but I know I have a goal and I must complete the goal.  Super rainy day.. So got off work at 4 went down to Freeman parked looped twice back over to greenbelt and up to starbucks.  These little rewards make it all better. 

Met up with Lyndsi and Alana drove up Sunnyside.  Seriously, if the weather was always like today I would be very happy.  Came down Sunnyside hill my legs felt tired, tight and heavy but some how after we made it to the downhill and started on the flat I felt amazing and off I went.  Love running with people the energy from each other is what keep us going so strong. Alanda and Lyndsi were very strong the entire time, they are gonna KILLLLL Ogden half.

super sore from sunday

stilll a little sore

early morning feeling tons better

super early on tm

really early run with alana. weather was amazing and felt really good

Went after work with my broter in law, It was soo hot. Felt pretty good the entire time and was able to keep a pretty good pace.

met the ladies early in the am.  nice to chit chat with them.  nice and easy run.

Early in the morning.  Last run before Ogden Marathon.  I had no music or watch it was kinda nice.  The weather was really nice too. Getting nervous.

Woke up to a very rainy day again.  It reminded me of Salt Lake Half a few weeks ago.  It was kinda nice to hang with Craig, Andrea and Curt and just learn hot they prepare for the race.  Started with the 3:35 pacer but felt pretty good so I pusjed it a llittle and met up with the 3:25 pacer.  Felt amazing even though it wass raining.  At mile 20 I started to feel a chaley horse in my right calf come on kept going hoping that it would go away.  When i got to mile 24 I lost the 3:25 pacer and had to stop multiple times to massage my calf.  Overall I am very happy with my time.  I need to train harder and hope to qualify for Boston someday.

OMG! I am sooo sore.  I went from my house around the and back home.  I was very sore and tight.  My shin bothered me a bit too.  Its totally okay I gave it my all on Saturday and will need a few days to get back on track.  Pocatello Marathon training has now started.

Met Alana and Shannon this morning.  I had planned to go out 8 but as soon as I started I knew that finishing 8 would be a challange.  Super slow pace, still pretty tight and sore specially my quads.  Alana had a GU and gave it to me at mile 4 or so.  As soon as I took it I knew it was going to get a little ugly.  About 30 seconds after I took it, I puked it up.  NO BUENO!  I ended up finishing with Shannon at 7 and she was so nice and gave me a ride back to my car.  Thanks Shan!  I seriously didnt think I would be able to finish.  The mind always wants to give up before the body does.  Hoping for a good yoga stretch.

5:00 AM memorial day run.  Only got about 4 hours of sleep so I was kinda nervous about how the run would go.  Met Alana at her house did our 10 mile loop.  Felt amazing.  Runs like today make 4:00 AM alarm clocks on Saturday morning worth it.  Pretty good pace pretty good conversation and amazing sunrise and the best part NO WIND!!! What a great way to start a day!
