It was very busy last week. Dance performances, school activities, homework On saturday I had a really quick run. My nephew was going through the temple to get his endowments. 9 a.m. session. I knew I had to get up and run before hand or else I wouldn't get the run in. My family likes to drag out every get together. Which I was right. After the temple, there were pictures, then we had to go out for lunch then more visiting. We got home around 3 p.m. It was such a nice day that we decided to go for a family bike ride. Can't wait for spring break.

Did my usual tempo run on the treadmill this morning. It felt great. Did 2 miles at a 7:30 pace then I did 2 miles at a 7min pace. The last two laps I bumped it up to 6:30. Ended with a mile cool down. Next week I'm going to be doing my tempo run outside since there will be no early morning faculty meeting. It won't be as fast but I'll do my best.

Carpe Diem!

It was a nice morning. Ran through Santa Clara and up lava flow drive then hooked up with the trail on snow canyon parkway. Good run. Didn't really look at my watch to see what my pace was. I just ran didn't want to really push myself.

Avg pace: 8:20

Slept in a little today. Stayed up too late on sunday night. Ran the last 3 miles of the spectrum 10k. I liked it. Instead of that long stretch running along main street it is broken up. It was a nice run

I went to the Snow Canyon High school track today. I did 1 mile warm-up then I did 1 mile at 7:30 then I did one recovery lap. I then did three laps at 5:45. One lap recovery. 2 laps at 3:27 One lap recovery. 1 lap at 1:35. One lap recovery. 1 lap at 1:33. then 1 mile cool down.

The track is so nice now that they refinished it. I didn't think I needed my gloves but my hands were freezing the first 3 miles.

Getting a little nervous for Saturday.

It was a good run. I liked the new course. Set a PR. My previous record for the Spectrum 10k was 46:06. I wish I would have ran those first couple miles a little bit faster. The third place runner in my age group was only 40 seconds faster. I did pass about 4 guys in the last mile which felt good. Next year I'll have to try for 43 minutes.

We went to the movie "Horton Hears a Who" afterwards. The girls really liked it.

After the movie my 8 year old wanted to go to Snow Canyon High school and run on the track. I ran a couple laps with her then my right hip started to hurt and my calves felt tight so I stopped. She ran two more laps. Can't wait for the day when she can run the Spectrum 10k with me.

I was going to run outside this morning but the wind was blowing so hard I had to run on my treadmill. I was only able to run 5.25 miles. I had to start off slow because my quads were a little stiff. This evening I headed out for a 4 mile run because I had wanted to get in a few more miles.

Beautiful morning. My mom is visiting so I headed out this morning. I just ran around Ivins. It was so nice this morning. Just a little chill in the air but warm enough you didn't need a jacket. I am not looking forward to the hot summer months. Well it wouldn't be too bad if it cooled down at night. Doing bike tomorrow.

My 6 year old daughter was sick in the night so I couldn't get up. I didn't have time to ride the bike but I had to take my older daughter to dance. There is a track around the school she has dance so I ran a couple miles.

My girls were still sick and were up in the night but I slept in a little and then went running. It was nice to get out after staying in the house with sick kids all day on friday. We had been planning on going to my sisters for Easter but instead we will be staying home watching the movie "Enchanted"

I hope everyone else has a great Easter.

My husband had to leave at 6 so I ended up on the treadmill again. It wasn't too bad. I put in a dvd and watched an episode of CSI Las Vegas. I ate too much Easter candy this weekend.

It was so nice outside this morning. I did two miles around Ivins then I headed back to this street by Red Mountain Elementary. It has a 1/2 mile long hill. I did about 4 hill repeats. I was going to do more but I was tired of hills so after my last hill repeat I just hit the trail that runs along main street and did a few more miles. I had only planned on 7 miles but by the time I got home and looked at my watch it was 7.70.

I got out early this morning because my daughters had dance pictures. I was only going to do 10miles. I started on this 10 mile out and back route that I like to run. I do 2 miles in Ivins then hit the Snow Canyon Parkway trail and 3 more then turn around. At mile 9 I looked at the time and realized I had run faster than I had figured and so I had more time. I was feeling good so I ran an extra 2.25 miles. It was a nice morning.

I did 6 this morning then this evening I did 4 more. I'll probably regret my decision to run again tomorrow morning when I do my tempo run. We'll see.
