You get out what you put in

Sun - easy run with P-man aroung S. small-block neighborhood (gotta remember to look at what this is named :-) 1m

Mon - 1600 with sltrack club, then had to hop fence to run around Sugarhouse perimeter, then an hour of yoga. Felt great. 3.5 m

Tue - cathartic running from Arcadia around to tempo run coming back on canal from 32 to 36. Got to the throat hurt pain. Then a second one from Bangtr back to road canal. Getting the heart up and the heat out. 4m

B-ball Wed/Th, played on team with black guy who seemed like he could take over but chose not to, so we lost. Thu shootaround with Steve, did the 10 shot 3 ball and 3 foul shots in 1:32, 1:41, 1:23.

Fri - run with Ben and Nate from homestead down canal roads, across by Valley park, then canal road challenge. They did 7:15, I did 8:25. Not quite the Lagoon reward for me. Easy back to house. 5m

Sat - help haul elk out, easiest it's ever been. Rainy, had to run/hike back to get my backpack, realized I'd lost my wedding ring. It's all good, new ring for the next 10 years and more. 2m

Sun - football with guys & Mark at Valley, good times.

Mon - w/ slctrack at Highland, B did yoga, P and I went to playground. Feeling low energy so rested on Tues.

Wed - great run from 126th on Jordan Parkway to Bangtr, found horse trail and did a good hour. 8m Short time of ball with Polynesian ward, 3 on 3, then great piano.

Biking/walking/rollerblading P to school, cleaned the school path of debris, oiled P's scooter bearings.

Right rib still hurting, failure to get full night's sleep.

Fri- ran around at Region meet, watched Olympus dominate, Cottonwood park, 4 lengths of park for 4 races and a perimeter. 3m

Wed - Run with Nate from his house across the street to blocked canal, followed it thru neighborhoods to 7800, then trying to find it on the way back. 20 minutes out, maybe 25 minutes back. 6m Ball at nite, 1 game at stake close to Nate's, with Mark, then out, told could not show up and play by Rules and Regs guy. Guess what my man? You're at the bottom 5% of all wards I've ever been to. Only 2 out of 20 have shown an aloofness or segregation. Peace.

Fri - shakeout in the morning just feeling good, townhouse loop, cross street, around thru to Bang. canal end, 20 min, 2.5
 

Warmed up checking out the loop. Great course with a part of original Pony Express trail. Talked to a lady at the beginning about fast Jr. Highers, then my pace quickly took me to the front, really only 8 guys to pass. Ran slower with guy at front while we were on gravel road, then just needed to out, left him behind and pushed it around to 2nd loop. Ran in a tie and started to hurt a little second loop, just told myself to maintain pace through the corners. Seemed to pick it up on last stretch to school. Picked it up around school? Some sprint home.

Easy disc golf Sat. evening, 1.5
Sun hike with fam Corner canyon, ran from open hollow up canyon rim (?) trail to hoof and boot trail to a great overlook, stopped when it started to go south and no turnaround in site, asked some bikers. Was going up faster than one biker, and on the down 2 bikers didn't pass me. Lovely run, then cooled off driving to homestead. Good calf workout up and leg extension down, pretty good day after race run. 4

Mon - Halloween race w slctrackclub. Short warm-up, then ran easy letting it play out. Fast Neal and other guy were in front, caught up to Paul and ran with him. Other guy in white space-suit elongated his way ahead. Ran with Paul at good pace, wanted to rest a bit since just raced Sat. When Neal lapped us I ran with him, had 3 laps to go. Ran 1&1/2 laps w Neal, he spaced me out on his last lap. I had one to go, some extended sprint, most likely a 21:40 5K, 40 seconds behind white space suit. Talked w/ Paul and 2nd place after. Good candy and camaraderie and costume contest. 

Tue - H.O.R.S.E. with tall turn-around 3 guy, split two games, then won the rubber match
