Nice easy run with my dog.  Then a really fun run with Mary, MattK and Sasha.  Sasha pushed me for one mile and I got pretty tired but actually I felt great.   I am excited to take 2 or 3 days a week and come to Provo and find a couple of guys to push me.   Thanks guys.

Slow run, really too slow.  I ran with some friends who didn't want to pace faster than 8:45 and it was really a little hard to stay with them.  It was a nice easy run but I really enjoy about a minute faster more.

Nice easy morning run with the dog.  Then I went to Provo and met Sasha and Jeff, I enjoyed my run with them and felt great except on the end of the Fat mile I just didn't have the finishing power to make it to the end.  I am determined to fix that problem and show Sasha that I can do it.  Next week I am going to show him my kick and finish the fat mile in a decent time.

Pretty fun to actually see how I could do.  I actually pushed pretty hard but I left wondering if I could have pushed harder.
