| Needed to get in some kind of workout today. Missed my run yesterday due to alot of running around. So did some declined push-ups, lunges, flamingos, planks, and leg lifts. 3 sets is all I got to get in at break time. More running around tonight. I will need to get in a run tomorrow morning if I can or late after I drop off my girls. |

| No running today. Did planks, flamingos, declined push-ups, up ups down downs. Feeling stronger in all those areas. Not so sluggish and it felt good all day long. I think I will keep with the workouts at work. Feeling alot more tone. |

| Went down to the JRP to run. Was a great morning for a run. Was barely snowing off and on. With really no snow on the trail. We head out at a good pace. But it felt good and we just kept cruising along. I think my watch was off around the turn around point. And ended up with 14.48 miles to MissFit's 14. And we hit it in 2hrs flat. So was a good long run. My last one as a single man. |

| AM- Got in some push-ups, planks, and flamingos. Only 2 sets and didnt get a chance to do more.
PM- Went for a nice run with MissFit. Temp was good and a slight wind during the run. And hoping for this kind of weather tomorrow for a nice bike ride. Just tring to find a good route to run on a regular basis. This one was a bit hilly to do as a everyday run. So will need to find a flat area to get in some good miles. TT 46:53 AP 8:40

Went out for a final run as a single man. Slight wind coming from the South and a light rain. We headed into it and felt like the first 2 miles had some good gradual uphills. With most of it after that downhill. Was nice to get in a good run on this soon to be busy day.:) Got to love it baby!!
TT 50:42 AP 8:32
Got to work and decided to stay busy and did some strength training. Did 3 sets of push-ups, planks, flamingo, lunges and bridges. Oh and did some dips. Been doing some dips off and on and was suprised today. That first set did 10 and felt good. Next did 15 and still felt good. Last set was 20. Feeling good and staying busy.:)

| Was able to get in a run today at 7pm and 10,000 ft. I shouldnt have eaten a big dinner and expect to run. Made it into a speed interval workout with a few potty breaks. Was kind of the first speedwork in months. With 3 intervals in the sub 7 pace I was feeling good. Also got in 3 sets of my normal workout(push-ups, lunges, planks, flamingos and leg lifts). With 3 sets of leg press, bench, bi curls, lat pull downs. Was a great workout. And glad I wasnt sore for the ride home.:) |

| Got in my normal sets of flamingos, lunges, push-ups, planks and leg lifts. Was hoping to get in a run after dropping the girls off. But didnt happen. Might need to really look into runs in the early morning again. Once things get back to normal. |

| I have really needed to get in some long runs if I plan on running a marathon in 4 weeks. My recovery has been going well and so just building up miles for this coming race. Needed to do a good long run though. So we went out with the hopes of getting in a 16 miler. We had the girls this weekend and added to the challenges of everything. The morning was gorgeous and temp was just right. Wore just shorts and long sleeve shirt with gloves. Didnt peel off the gloves till around mile 11 but felt great the whole time. We just plugged along. Did get a hot spot going around mile 8 and was tried to ajust it a few times. Did really end with a blister. Figure I need to cut more on soles for my orthotics to fit right. We got 12 miles nice and easy. Then miles 13-14 were in the 9:15-20 range. So talked MrsFit into kicking it up for the last 2 miles. We hit them at 8:15-19 range so felt really good about this run. MrsFit is going to do awesome at the half. As for my marathon I am going to just make it a good long run without much taper is how I see it at the moment. |

AM- Planks, flamingos, bridges, and leg lifts.
PM- Had a few mins to get in a run so went out and enjoyed the good weather. Just did a 4 miler loop. First mile is flat with a head wind. 2nd had a uphill the whole way. 3rd mile was flat with slight tail wind and last mile was stead downhill. I like this loop and look forward to challenging myself on this loop. And I feel good about this run and pushed it hard the whole way. And was happy to hit a sub 7. Here are the splits... Mile 1 8:01 Mile 2 8:30 Mile 3 7:36 Mile 4 6:52 TT 31:00 AP 7:44

AM- Planks, walking lunges, flamingos, bridges and weak attempt at pushups. Shoulder was still sore on the pushups so didnt push those to hard. 3 sets of each. Hope to get in another run tonight. Might go 5 or just stick with 4 since I plan on running 18 this weekend. PM- Tried a different route today to have more flat miles. And found a good route for a 5.5 loop. Was shooting for a tempo run or at least hit around 8:00 and felt good about doing that. Was quite hot out there compared to what I am use to around 70+. Here is the splits... Mile 1 8:41 Mile 2 8:06 Mile 3 8:01 Mile 4 7:56 Mile 5 8:01 Mile .54 7:25 TT 44:45 AP 8:04

AM- Planks, bridges, flamingos, dips and push-ups. 3 sets of each. PM- Went and braved the wind riding with MrsFit. Got in a 13.5 in 55 mins. Was just what I was wanting time wise. But could sure do without the wind. Did discover something new. Its alot more stable to grap onto the bottom bars when in the wind. First mile or so it was kind of scary. Felt like at any point my bike was going to get blown out from under me going 20 mph. But we beat the storm.:)

| For some reason I though Ogden was just 2 weeks away and so was going to do only 18. Then reality hit my yesterday that I could and should do 20. So I talked MrsFit into joining me on this long run. We decided we the weather to sleep in some and MrsFit wasn't feeling well last night. But felt better today. We went down to the JRP to get er done. We got started after 9am and there was not many out on the parkway which was nice. Bit chilly at first but we warmed up nicely. Just wanted to go the distance and wasnt worry about the time so kept it in the 9s was the goal for the run. We had a bunch of pit stops on the way on both of our parts. As we came up on 16 miles I was feeling alot better this week then last week. And opted with still making it a 20 miler. We got back to the car at 17.2ish and MisFit had enough so I doubled back and did another 3.1 basically the 5k race I had done with Smooth and Teena. And actually the last 3 felt good and strong. I was able to pick up the pace for the fast few miles of the run which felt really good. I felt I could of easily gone another 6 miles. Which really is what I was wanting to know with Odgen coming up. So this was a great confidence builting run. Also after I left MrsFit at the car ran into someone running his first marathon at Ogden and that really gave me a boost at the end. All and all it was a good run and enjoyed it with my wife. She is awesome!! TT- 3:10 AP- 9:28

AM- Only was able to get 2 sets in today. But had a extra 1-2 things to the curcuit. Planks, bridges, walking lunges, flamingos, push-ups and dips. Shoulder is still a bit sore when I do the push-ups and seems ok with I do the dips. Will see how it feels later.
PM- Got a run in after work before MrsFit got home. Did the 4 miler loop. Still a bit tired from Sat long run so made it a easy run. Felt good at the end of it. Can't wait till after Ogden to follow a set program. Been just building up a base. TT- 36:08 AP- 8:36

AM- Got in some more exercises. Did planks, declined push-ups, wall sits, flamingos so far. I got to find another set of exercises for the other days. And what a beautiful day. I cant wait to get home and get in a run tonight. PM- Went for the longer loop this time out by the airport 2. Took the first mile slower to warm up and then start to push the pace and tried to hold it there. At the moment the sub 8 min pace seems just enough for me. Yet felt pretty good about the run and effort. Mile 1 8:52 Mile 2 8:12 Mile 3 7:53 Mile 4 7:48 Mile 5 7:52 Mile .6 7:57 TT 45:24 AP 8:06
