Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

Slackin again today.  Work is super busy, and lots to do at both places to finish the move.  Will check out my new surroundings tomorrow morning before work.  I also just signed up for Utah's Toughest 10k since the course is pretty much my backyard now!

First run at the new place was a success!  I just went down 100S to 40 and back.  Didn't have much time before I had to go to work.  Seems like there will be a lot of cool soute options, and there's tons of grass parks and soccer fields for repeats.  I think I'm gonna like it here.  Did some core after my run.  Avg. 7:24 per mile.

Good run today.  I'm finding some new terrain in my new town, but have tons to explore!  The lower elevation of Midway allowed me to stay below the snow line of last night's storm.  A run in Park City this morning would have had about an inch of snow on the ground!  Did 4 strides during the middle miles.  Did 40 push-ups, planks, side-planks, bird-dog, and running pose after my run.  Avg. 7:20 per mile.

Run an out and back by Wasatch State Park with a nice loop around some wetlands.  Perfect conditions out today!  Decided to tackle Memorial hill on the way back.  Not the hard climb I had anticipated, but slowed me down a little.  I felt good on the way down and knew it was a little over a mile from the bottom to my house, so I let the terrain guide my pace and added some kick.  Did the last 2.17 miles at 6:45 pace.  Did 15 over hand pull-ups, some core and light hamstring exercises after the run.  Avg. 7:14 per mile for entire run.

Pressed for time because of a meeting at work.  Did 15 under hand pull-ups, core, and 20 lunges after run.  Ran 4.71 miles, avg. 7:19 per mile.

 

PM  42:40

Ran an out and back on a dirt trail by my work with a loop around some soccer fields in the middle.  Did 2 x half mile intervals at the 3.20 mark with a 1:20 rest between.  Splits were .51 miles in 3:07(6:11 avg.) and .49 miles in 3:01(6:08 avg.).  Total run was 5.81 miles, avg. 7:21 per mile.
