Boise, ID 6:30 am Pace: 7:58 Avg HR: 149 A little on the chilly side this morning, but really nice for a run. Finally getting back to feeling like myself after last week's vacation. This was a good run. We kept up a good pace the whole way and I felt strong to the end. Traffic was a little heavy when we were trying to cross McMillian. Randy said Go, so I took off. At the last minute he pulled back to go around the car that was coming. I kept running. I heard the honk, Randy saw the finger. I signed up for Top of Utah, so it's no longer a maybe. Now I need to get some long runs in.

| | Meridian, ID 6:15 am Pace: 8:36 Avg HR: 141 I started out with five miles up to Overland on a very nice cool morning. Met up with Neil and ran about three with him. Nice to chat up a bit and change the route a bit. He probably thought I was trying to kill him off when I bolted across the street before the light changed. After that the last four miles was just heading home. A group of cheerleaders lined up on Cloverdale to cheer me on this morning. I thought that was nice of them. Or maybe they were just out there practicing. iPod song of the day: "Don't Worry About The Government" -- Talking Heads

| | Boise, ID 6:40 am Pace: 8:08 Avg HR: 146 A figure 8 loop up Cloverdale, Edna, Shamrock, McMillian, Cloverdale, through Ginger Creek and down Duane. I decided to only run five or so this morning. I felt kind of sluggish yesterday and didn't want to push things too much before going long on Saturday. I started out comfortably and was able to push the pace a bit each mile: 8:51, 8:13, 8:10, 8:00, 7:44. iPod song of the day: "Tons of Steel" -- The Grateful Dead

| | Boise, ID 6:30 am Pace: 8:23 Avg HR: 142 Kept the pace down this morning. Want to leave something in the tank for tomorrow's long run. It's getting a bit warmer in the morning but still nice and comfortable. |

| | Boise, ID 6:00 am Pace: 8:55 Avg HR: 147 Finally able to get in my first Top of Utah long run. It worked out pretty well. I went down Emerald to Curtis and then took the greenbelt to Eagle and then back home. I thought I had everything covered until about 10 miles into it I startd feeling the burn -- I'd forgotten the little round band aids. Then I didn't pass a Walgreens until mile 17. So I went in and bought some, but it was too late. I'm still feeling it. Then in the last mile I noticed a blister on my ankle of all places. weird
I was feeling pretty wiped out by the end, but I was able to keep my pace close to 9 minutes per mile and picked it up slightly in the last mile to post an 8:58 split. Could be worse. iPod song of the day: "Working in a Coal Mine" -- Devo (Lord, I am so tired. How long can this go on?)
