I have been bothered by an ingrown toenail...ouch! Still hurts but needed to get out for a run today. Tried to run a consistent pace today, not neccesarily fast. My average was 7:48. splits 7:49/ 8:00/ 7:51/ 7:50/ 7:43 at the end of this mile I saw a women on roller blades ahead of me and pushed it enough to pass her.....felt really good and this pushed me to finish strong for the last 1/2 mile/ 7:12    41:22 total time.

I cannot believe how great the fall has been this year, everyday has been beautiful!

Side note: I had business up in Dammeron Valley yesterday and drove up to see a property in Brookside. I really miss running the marathon course every saturday. I decided that I am going to have to run the marathon course from the beggining to the end in the next few weeks, just for fun!

Same run as yesterday, different result for the better. Light rain going out and a little heavier coming back----felt good.

7:17 average pace;

7:13/ 7:13/ 7:06/ 7:20/ 7:39/ 7:04   38:38 total time.

Amazing to me because yesterday felt good and I cut 2:44 off of yesterdays run or 31 seconds off of my average......I suppose I like the rain....lol

ran around the block. Needed to get the legs and butt loosened up. Yesterday's run made me pretty stiff...in a good way.

Similar run as last saturday. I strapped my pack on, loaded with a computer hard drive that needed to be taken to the computer store. I needed to get it there at 10am so that really messed up my running plans. I ended up running up past sunset blvd, where the computer store is, and ended up going to the Snow Canyon parkway then turned around and went back to the store. Then is was back home for a total of 14.65 (8:54 average). Another beautiful day just a little cool. Had my first nip bleed......they sting...lol

Checked my shoes on sunday and found that I had put some heavy magnetic insoles in my shoes and had forgotten to take them out for this run.......the legs were heavy......I was trying to figure out why the bottoms of my feet hurt so bad, DUH!
