Great run this morning with Bill, Dave and Steve O. Ran from the Veyo Store down to the running store. Took a while to warm up but once we started going I felt great. Dave decided he wanted to drop 3 miles at 5:20-5:30 pace and stupid me tried to keep up. I think it really effected my run the rest of the way. I've noticed I don't handle speed changes very well in the middle of a long run. Overall I was really happy with the run and I'm noticing improvements.

Steve good job with the run. Sorry I didn't make it over this morning, I wasn't feeling very good yesterday afternoon and evening, and decided I needed a little more rest and recovery this morning. I think it is a combination of allergies, heat, and some fatigue from my week of training why I haven't been feeling too good. I'm still hoping to get in a run, but now it will have to be this afternoon on the treadmill or tonight after the sun goes down.

I have always wanted to train on the last 18 miles of the marathon course like that. maybe it would help me not get quite so sore during and after the marathon.

Hey, hook me up with some cool St. George Running Center paraphernalia, something like a cool singlet. I'll pay you.
