Clyde's Comeback!

6.5 miles in the a.m

7 miles this evening

After taking 3 days off I was feeling recovered and ready to roll...So I go out this morning and two miles into it my calves are hurting so bad you would have thought I had run Salt Lake and not Boston. I've never hurt this bad for this long so I decided to go get a rub down for a fee. The guy didn't do the best job but by the time I ran in the evening I felt 10 times better and was less worried about being injured. This had really been out of my comfort zone. Like I said I've never hurt that bad that long. Maybe it's a good thing or sign of improvement to have pushed it hard enough to really need to recover.

Anyways hope to log some good miles this week-at least 80- as it is the only solid week I have between next weeks half marathon in Hurricane.

6.5 miles this morning

6.5 miles this evening

After working outside all day I was wasted and was not going to go. But after laying around the house for 45 min's I talked myself into going. Pretty hard run because I was so trashed and still feeling sick and sore.

Morning after- glad I went.

7.8 miles this morning

8.2 miles this evening

At last a good day. Morning run was a little slower pace up powerline trail and down around golf course. Tried to work on good form and enjoy running after days of being so sore.

Evening run was more of the same. Went up to powerline then to water tank and down around industrial park to home. Running a little faster and feeling like I could pick it up if I wanted to. Good to finally feel like I'm working my way back up.

6.5 miles this morning

10 miles this afternoon with the club

Feeling good. Just need to eat more today than I did the last few days. Feeling tired from hunger.

On the morning run I ran into Bill so he ran my Golf course loop with me. Then this afternoon we had a good run (Steve, Bill and I ). I wasn't planning on going that far but hey- When in Rome...

6.5 miles this morning

6.5 miles this evening when I got to Torrey. The elevation was killing me at around 7,500 ft.

Both easy run's. Just trying to finish off a long week of work and other things. Drove to Torrey and did a run around town. Things sure have changed there since I have moved away. I decided I need one house in St.George and one there.

We went fishing at Lake Powell today. Bullfrog marina because the lake is too low to get the boat in at the Hite marina. We were leaving the house at 5 a.m. So I got up at 3:40 a.m. and got ready and left the house by 4 and headed down the road with my reflective vest and head lamp. I had a goal to at least get 8 miles before my uncle came along on the way to the lake. After 6 miles of finding a stride I got things rolling and ended up getting in just over 11 miles as I just got to the visitor center of Capital Reef National Park when they came pulling up. I dumped a cold gallon of water on me and changed my cloths and we headed down the road to Powell. The three of us caught around 30 fish and had a great time. At the end of the day after being in the sun and stuff I was glad that I had ran that morning.
