Time to start over. Haven't run since S.G.M.2008  I have been working out and have put on about 12 pounds. I feel strong but lacking in aerobic fitness. I ran a mile, then did some upper body, then another mile. I continued this and then ran an easy 2 mi. to finish up. I think I will be ready for another marathon towards the end of the year. I plan to add some speed work to this years training.

On the treadmill today. 2 mi. then weights, 2 more mi., the weights. 1 mile averaging about 6:10 on the last mile. It will take awhile to drop some of the weight. 172lbs and holding.

Ran 5 miles in Payson. Tried running the railroad track but didn't care much for that. Legs are feeling a little sore in the calfs. I'm trying to be patient with myself. 6:40 ave.

Nice 3 mile walk in the evening.

3 X 1 mile repeats on the treadmill, with upper body workout in between. Picked up the speed on the last repeat until I was running at 5:30 pace.

Ran out and back to Ivins. Decided not to put any stress into the run. I stayed comfortable the whole time and still ended up averaging 6:47 per mile. That was good new to me.
