Should not have given in to the french fry craving AND a grilled chicken and avocado sandwich from JCWs. I felt sluggish on my run. It was a recovery/easy day and felt that way but really was hoping somehow easier was getting faster but I guess not in a semi-coma state will that happen. Slept 4.5 hours again when I got home at 6:45am. So when I got on my shorts and headed outside I thought yippee its spring still, but I felt a cold breeze, more so than yesterday that I grabbed my sweatshirt. I definitely was more sleepy on today's run as it took me 5 miles before I felt warm enough to remove my sweatshirt. Ran 7.5 miles @ 8:57 pace-- 2.7 miles of which were on a gravel path that goes around the stake center by discovery park, almost a 1/2 mile loop. I was wanting less pounding. Notice my right (last time it was my left and much worse) achilles acting up, but not due to shoes but doing "guy" push ups. My ankles are skinny and the stress of my body weight on them during push ups is stretching that area pretty good. Hope I can just get em' strengthened by doing this gradual push up program. Or I might have to take longer breaks in between and watch my form more closely. Goal possibly 70 miles this week if I can get in 15 tomorrow am : D.

Hey Julie ~ Check out jun's blog http://jun.fastrunningblog.com/ on his marathon run up South Mountain (Traverse Ridge) today (Fri). Thought you'd be interested to check out that route for your Squaw Peak epic-training-run!

Wanna join us tomorrow morning? Bunch of us are meeting at 7am at the Draper City Park, 12500 S. 1300 E to run on the Porter Rockwell Parkway. It goes north to the point of the mountain for 6, so 12 round trip. I'm doing 13.

Direction: Take the 12300 S Draper Exit. Go east to 1300 E, turn south and through the round-about, down over the rail road track. Parking is on the right just past the rail road.

I will check it out Smooth. Sorry about today. I had a run already planned with Mel and Kim. Sounds like a great run though!!
