It did not feel like April today.  It was snowing and windy.  I think it was the worst weather I have run in - in a long time.  Jerry and I met a few of the other crazy BBK's at about 11100 S. and 3200 W.  Only Kelli, Scott, Cheris, Aaron and Walter were with us.  My feet were soaked and it hard to keep my eyes open running North.  Average pace was 9:04, but it felt much harder.

I ran with Lisa again this morning.  We did the same 7 mile loop as on Wed.  The weather was great.  I made a quick pit stop at Holiday.  Average pace 8:25.

Our group was small today.  We met at Bingham to run Cheryl's SJ 1/2 marathon route.  I ran with Cheris, Lisa and Aaron.  Eric started ahead of us.  We caught up to him in the loop above 4800 W.  Then we found Nancy R.  She ran with us for the last 5 miles.  The weather turned out to be much better than I thought it would be.  It was windy running North.  Luckily we only had a few miles of that.  Good run.  Average pace 8:33.  I took my son to see Clash of The Titans later that day.  It was a good movie.  I did doze off for about 15 minutes of it.  I was pretty tired.

Ran with Lisa this morning.  It was 48 degrees but very windy going South.  I felt way overdressed running with the wind.  Overall a great run.  Average pace 8:12.

Met the BBK's at Bingham.  I'm tired of the wind.  It was 32 degrees and very windy.  We warmed up for about 4 miles.  Then we kind of broke into groups and did different things.  Cheryl, Cheris, Kris and I did 1, 2 and 3 minute intervals, with easy running in between.  We pushed pretty hard, but we did a good job recovering.  We cooled down with an easy mile at the end.  Average pace 8:33.

I did the usual 7 mile loop with Lisa.  I left Taylor's car at the school for her and ran home from there.  I was tired today.  I came home, got my kids off and took a nap for an hour.  I feel much better.  Average pace for the last 5 miles was 8:30.  I forgot to start it at the beginning.

Met the BBKs at 10200 S. and 40th W.  After the warm up, Cheryl had a run planned for us.  We did a short tempo run.  Then we did some hill repeats up and down the hill in front of the temple.  Then we did one more short tempo run and cooled down around the park.  Thanks Cheryl.  It was fun.  You made Jerry's day with that hill workout.  Average pace 8:33.

Jerry and I met the BBKs at Bingham.  The only ones there for the early mile were Nancy M., Cheris, and Michelle M.  It was snowing hard and windy.  Mike and Peggy joined us for the regular miles.  The weather cleared up a little, but out feet were soaked.  Jerry and I decided to end a little early.  The slow pace felt great today.  Average pace 9:42.

I ran with Lisa again this morning.  We tried to slow it down a little.   I stopped at my house, so we picked up the pace the last mile to get back in time.  Cold and windy going South and West.  Average pace 8:39.

Met the BBKs at SJ park.  We ran the 5k route three times.  The first one was a nice warm up pace of 9:21.  The second one I forgot to start my watch.  It felt like tempo pace.  The last one I ran with Walter and Lisa.  Average pace for that one was 7:42.  I felt good today.  I think one speed workout a week is plenty for me right now.

I met the BBKs at Riverton park.  I wanted to get Taylor off to her track meet so I missed the warm up the others were doing.  I warmed up for a little over a mile on my own.  Then the group did the Riverton 10k route.  We regrouped and some of us ran down to the trail.  We turned around at the top of the big hill and came back.  Good run.  It was great to have some sunshine.   Average pace 8:26.

Taylor did awesome at the Davis Invitational track meet.  She qualified for state in the 100, 200 and 400.  She took first place in the 400.  That's my girl. :)

Met the BBKs at Bingham.  We warmed up with 4 slow miles.  Then we did 6 fast repeats, that were about 1/2 mile long with recovery between them, at the SJ park.  Then we cooled down back to the cars.  Average pace 8:54.

Jerry and I met the BBKs at the church on Temple Hill.  We warmed up slowly for 4 miles.  Then we did some speed changes.  If was so windy today.  We did a 20 minute tempo run.  We ran South on 1300 for 10 minutes then turned around and ran back.  I pushed pretty hard.  My pace was around 7:00.  Then Jerry, Cheris, Michelle M. and I did hill sprints.  Then we cooled down for about 1.5 miles.

No running today.  I spent 14 hours driving down to Cedar City, packing up my grandparents, and then driving back home again.  It was  a long day.

I ran with Lisa and Kris.  It was fun hearing about their half marathon at Thanksgiving Point two days earlier.  Lisa took 1st for the master's woman and Kris was 3rd in his age group.  It's great to know I can run with fast people like that.  Another windy morning.  Average pace 8:42.

Met the BBKs at Riverton High.  We warmed up for about 4 miles.  Then we did some speed changes.  For the speed work, we went over to the street North of the school.  We did a step down ladder.  First we ran a hard 7 minutes, then 6, 5, 4, 3 etc.  all with a recovery after each one.  It was so windy running South.  I think I pushed too hard on the first two runs and the wind took a lot out of me.  I was pooped on the latter ones.  Average pace for the last 6.3 miles was 8:18.

I ran with Lisa again this morning.  I could hear the wind most of the night.  It was crazy.  It was very windy during the run.  The last mile it started to slow so we picked up the pace to be done quicker.  Average pace 8:34.
