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.

Today I really just didn't feel like moving much. I didn't feel tired, I just didn't feel like going very fast. The only time we started to speed up at all my calf gave a slight twinge and we slowed back down. Total time for 6 miles 50:57. I will run this afternoon with the Springville Cross Country team as well.

PM - I ran 7 miles with the Springville Cross Country team. I need to slowly work on these guys in order to get them running slower. We finished 7 miles in 47:53. The guys were all breathing hard, and were having trouble saying more than a few words at a time to one another, when their coach told them that they should be conversational during the run. The leg felt good except for one little twinge in the muscle about 5 or 6 miles into the run. Considering the pace, that shows significant improvement.
