13.1 mile morning loop around the overpass. I struggled to get up this morning. We finished our region wrestling tournament last night late and it was a long day. By the time I got home and in bed I was just trashed. So I was just lucky to get up today. But the run was actually pretty good once I got rolling and the legs felt pretty fresh from having yesterday afternoon off.

My varsity wrestlers did great. They won 8 of the 14 finals matches. They have been solid all year and should make a run at a top 3 spot in the state tournament next week in Orem. I wish I could say the same about our JV. Once again at the region tournament our JV really struggled- but when it comes right down to it I'd rather have a strong varsity that will score big at the state tournament than a JV team that can win region.

With that I'm one week away from being done with wrestling. Our state tournament starts next Wednesday at UVSU.... should be fun. I just have to find a way to run a little while I'm up there?

10.75 mile run this afternoon. It was a beautiful sunny afternoon in Dixie- the temperature at my house a 3 p.m. when I left on the run was 62. Pretty nice for the middle of winter. I ran up to the powerline and took it over to the Millcreek trail and down into GS and back home. When I left the house I was only going to go 7 or 8 but the weather changed my mind. I did have to stop for potty break. My tummy wasn't doing so well. It must have been my diet yesterday- Cafe Rio for lunch, followed up by pizza from the Pizza Factory for dinner, and a bunch of candy in the middle.

It's nice to see you cut loose on the diet once in a while! Makes the rest of seem human!
