Early morning run with Wildbull and Bigfoot- Legs are very tight! When running things felt pretty good but I couldn't maintain pace very long due to the tightness of the calves and quads. (approx. 7:20 pace)

Signed up for the Utah Summer games 10k and 5k next weekend...hoping that some running in the high elevation this next 4-5 days at our family reunion will help get me ready. The following weekend is the American Fork Half Marathon

Woke up at 3:45am to get ready to drive to Cedar City for the Summer games 5k. Perfect weather this morning. Went in to the race just to have a good time and finish. I ran my 3rd fastest 5k and really took it easy, even took walk breaks 4-5 times in the last mile......Ran 20:53, 10 seconds slower than last year, 28 slower than my PR. I really hope to be healthy and not be coming off a week of sickness before this race next year.

I love this course.

AM 4 miles running around Bloomington- very slow first mile in the 9's then pushed a bit harder and needed up with 8:11 average for the run.

Went out for a 20 mile bike the first 10 miles easy but steady 17mph then pushed on the way back to keep everything above 19.

Ran the first 7 1/2 miles very strong then my left foot started in on me and I was not mentally tough to run through it today. Enjoyed my time even though I didn't finish strong. At 7 1/2 miles I was at 6:45 pace...then from there on out it wasn't pretty
