Personal:

I got married on Feb. 22nd of this year and I am loving married life (it sure beats the long distance thing). My beautiful wife Kimia is very supportive of my running. I grew up in Washington and started running in junior high. After high school I came out to Utah and ran with BYU for 1 year before going on a mission.

Good run today.  I did feel some lingering tightness in the leg, but it was no worse than it has felt recently and might even have been better.  I think that I will keep on the 10 mile a day plan for the next few days, but I might increase the mileage later on in the week and possibly add in a long run this Saturday.  As long as my leg either stays constant in how it feels or gets better I think that I am safe.  However, if it starts getting worse again I will need to keep backing off.  Total time for 10 miles (maybe a little more) was 1:18:27.
