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.

Took 100s to 650 west, the dons 2700 S to soldier Hollow & back.  My legs felt pretty springy at first, but started to feel beat up from the crazy run on Friday and all the driving yesterday.  Still a nice day to be out. : )

AM

Did an out & back to 189 with some 2:00 intervals.  My legs still feel pretty sore from the drills, so the pace wasn't the greatest.  Started out slow and was able to make my last one the fastest.  Took Griffin on his loop when I got back.

2.2 warm,

5 x 2:00 @ 6:00 - 6:30 pace w/ 3:00 jog,

PM

Slow road biking w/ Lacy, 25:00.  I pretty much power braked my bike while she ran.  Was fun though and a second run for Griffin.  He was lovin it.
