Another Day Another Run

Today my pacer decided to take a nap before I left for my run. I wanted to run 8 again but I decided to just do a 5k. It was just one of those days. The weather was perfect and I loved it. My legs were tired from the two days before, so it was probably best I just did a 5k.

Spring is Springing

Spring is finally upon us and I love it. I love running and seeing some of the trees with flowers and little leaves on them. It is even better because I can run and it is warm. My pacer loves it to cause he does not have to wear a bear suit anymore.
Yesterday I ran while my pacer was taking a nap and I did a 5k loop around the area.
Daily Mileage = 3.1

Today was one of my usual routes I do and it was fun. It was St. Patrick's Day and I did not wear green while running. There was a gang of Leprechauns that tried to mess with my pacer and I, as you can I see I am here typing this and they are.....well lets just say I won.

Slackin' Part II

Two Saturdays ago I ran at a place I have never ran. The place was Wheeler Farm. This is a really fun place to run because it has a 5k route all marked out for runners. You just have to follow the arrows. It is a lot of fun because there are a lot of turns and it does not get boring. I will definitely have to go here again soon.

A Trip Down Memory Lane

Today I was doing one of my 6 mile routes with my pacer. When I got halfway I randomly turned down a street that was part of the Salt Lake Marathon route 2 years ago. I have not ran down this road since that race. I remember I woke up that morning and it was raining so stinkin' hard. I was already soaked before the marathon began. It was a freezing cold rain also. My Ipod would not stay in my ears due the rain. I gave it to my mother-in-law at about halfway. By the end of the race though it had stopped raining but was still freezing cold. I got a PR at that race actually. It is always fun to run somewhere with a memory attached. To bad that road was not actually called Memory Lane huh?
That year the SL marathon was cool because it was the first national race after the Boston Marathon terrorist attack. The attack happened 4 days before. there were people at the SL marathon who had ran the Boston Marathon that week. It was a pretty cool race to be apart of.

The starting line for the 2013 SL marathon

My name is on this. I think you can see it on the left if you squint.

Brought in the big dogs to this race. I think it was probably the first race they had to be at.

Good race. To bad it cost you an arm and two legs to do.

Aint' Nobody Got Time For Dat!!

How do I have time to run? In all honesty I don't. It's that simple. I have to make time for it and plan ahead. The past couple of running days the weather has threatened my run. One day last week and today I did not have time nor did the weather cooperate with my running. Luckily I timed it right both times that when I got home from run it would start raining. Timing is always different with my running. Some days this year I have ran at 3:30 in the morning and other days have been at 9:00. One Saturday I ran at 11:35 PM to get my daily run in before it ended. Aint' nobody got time to run is true but everybody can make time.
Daily Mileage = 4
