Sub 2:19:00 marathon Personal: I used to run competitively, and maybe I will do so again someday. Right now I am primarily running to try and get in better shape, and to maintain both physical and emotional health, but also for the simple joy that comes when I run.
I am also the proud daddy of five little ones. I love the opportunity that I have to be a daddy, and my challenge is to balance my family responsibilities with work and running. |

Running in Alpine, UT this morning. The run was a lot flatter than what I have been doing lately, and I think that I got excited a little bit by the change in environment. There was a good sized car crash on Timpanogas Hwy that I passed by during the run. Thankfully it didn't look like anybody got hurt seriously, but the bumpers on multiple cars were pretty crunched up.

| Approximately 7 miles split into two runs, with a few minutes break in between to use the bathroom. First 4 miles in 29:15, last three miles in 21:18.
Running in Orem/Provo today. I got excited again and probably ran too fast. During the last three miles I saw some BYU (?) runners who I chased briefly to try and get a feel for how fast they were running, and I ran the last half mile of the run in close to 6:00 pace (maybe just a little bit slower?). I also had some stomach issues this morning, and I went to the bathroom three times (before starting, after 3.5 miles, and after 4 miles). Unfortunately, a guy on a bike passed me as I was using leaves to clean up during the second pit stop (thankfully the other two times involved toilets), which was kind of embarassing.

I ran with Sasha this morning. We ran the first 5 miles with Jacob, and the last 2 miles with Joseph, William, Stevie, and Zack (or Zach?).

I ran with Sasha again. We ran the first two miles with the same group as yesterday (plus Jacob). After two miles people started to split off (they either stopped running or ran more alone) until the four mile mark when Sasha and I were running alone. At my request we ran the last half mile hard (we didn't start timing exactly at the half mile mark, but Sasha was able to catch the split from 700 to the finish; 2:18).

Back in Prescott again. I slept in and ran a little later in the morning. I think it was already over 80 degrees outside. I think that I have been running too hard for a good portion of the week, so I will probably need to back off some next week. Today I saw my mother in law driving into the neighborhood just as I was, and for the sake of my daughter who was in the car, and for the sake of competitiveness I sped up and ran pretty hard down some steep hills to the house in order to try and beat them home (it was kind of a tie as I was ahead coming up to the house but I started to slow down so that I wouldn't crash into the bushes and we ended up getting there at about the same time).
