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. |

I am getting too lazy at updating my mileage every Sunday. I think that I need to do it daily instead (assuming that I stop being lazy when it comes to updating my blog every day) Surge - 651.8 Ohana Racer - 288.3 Speedstar - 468.05 | | Add Comment |

I ran 6 miles after school today. I kept the pace pretty easy. I also rode the bike to school, and rode it half of the way home (Kimia picked me up on the way home because we were going to go to the store together) which gives me 4.5 running miles (13.5 miles total) for a total of 10.5 miles on the day.

| I think that this is my first real goose egg this year. I don't really have a good excuse either except that Kimia wasn't feeling well, so I stayed home with her. I watched the Cross Country practice, but the guys were only running 1 mile because state is tomorrow. I was planning on running once I got home, but after I got home, I spent the evening taking care of Kimia. I did go to the store and I parked far away and then ran to the store and back, but I think that it only gave me about .25 round trip. | | Add Comment |

I have decided that after my recent laziness (related to running, and updating the blog) that I need to start focusing a bit more on my training. Taking a break after St. George was nice, but it is time to get back to work.
I ran with Sasha this morning. We finished up 8 miles in 59:34 (ironically that is the same amount of time it took me to finish 9 miles last Saturday). We did a pick up to 5:20 pace for 1000m so that Sasha could do a neural drive test to see if it improved due to a nap he took yesterday. In the afternoon I went to the state cross country meet and I got about 2 more miles in running around the cross country course cheering one the teams. I probably ran more than that, but I think counting 2 miles is good enough. I also rode the bike part of the way home, but Kimia picked me up so that we would have time to get to institute. I won't count any biking miles but I ended up biking about 4-5 miles. Speedstar - 482.05

I rode the bike home from work today giving me 3 miles (8 miles total biking). I also ran 6 miles with Kimia while she biked. After we finished I went out alone for another 4 miles to finish up with 10 miles running in 1:15:03. Surge - 661.8 | | Add Comment |

I ran with Sasha this morning. Sarah had her baby in the middle of the night, so we had to vary the run a bit this morning. We ran out for 2.5 miles, and shortly before the 2 mile mark dropped off some soy milk at Luz's house so that Sasha's kids could have it (she was nice enough to take the kids in the middle of the night). I am adding .1 mile for the detour, but it might have been longer. We came back to his house so that Sasha could check on Sarah, and after running another 1.05 around the block, Sasha went in to take care of Sarah, and I finished up the run alone, running another 4 miles to finish in 1:12:24 for an approximate 10.15 miles (1:11:20 not counting the detour).

I ran with Sasha again. We took it pretty easy, and we came back to the house a couple of times so that Sasha could check on Sarah and the kids. Ended up finishing 10 miles in 1:14:28
