Wife and I got out for a run down on the JRP. Wasnt to bad for me. First long run since the race. And wanted to start the new training as best as I could. My allergies werent to bad on the run which was really good. Because there was alot of stuff in the air. Along with bugs down there. I think I only got one up my nose and one in my eye at mile 4. It was nice also to run into Walter and Danille around mile 1.5 and run with them for 1.6 miles till we parted ways. As for goals on this run was to warm up and then hit the 8:00 pace for the run. The wife told me to run my own splits for the run since our paces would be different on the run. So as we got back to the parking lot where the cars were. She wasnt with me and had some issue at the restroom. What happened is she was coming out the the restroom and the door fell off and hit her right on the nose. Which she has a nice little ouchie on it now. And I was still off for another 6-7 miles. Poor thing and of course I had the key to the car.:( As for my splits too. They started to drop around mile 9 and it became a struggle to maintain my paces. But never did go over 8:45 by last one sure came close. So still recovering from Ogden but getting back fast.
