A little tired last night I went to the Depeche Mode Concert. It was the first day of school.  Rather then spin in the afternoon I skipped it and did my run then.  Legs are still pretty stiff.  started and 6.2 and slowly raised up to 7.0 then I bumped up .1 mph ever time I ran a mile  HRA was like 141/151.  I still haven't uploaded it yet.  Total time for 10 was 1:22:40 the .3 coold donw I didn't keep track of.  The shoulder is improving it feels 70% now and I am doing an Ibuprofen regime.  Soccer tonight hopefully I will feel better soon.

Well at least I slept good went to the Abs class new instructor today.  The shoulder still continues to feel better.  I am hoping I can lift next week.  My toes now look terrible.  Anyway all the soccer and standing and running must be taking it out of me.  Nathan started school today so that messed with the routine.  All the kids are in school now except my baby.  Anyway maybe I can find the motivation soon.  So after the Ab class I hit the treadmill.  Suzanne joined me after a couple miles she was telling me how sore she still feels as well.  I told her this was just a good sign that we really  pushed it on Saturday.  We are both going long this weekend so hope I don't hurt to bad.

Todays run 5 in 40:40 then a .3 cool down.

Weighed myself today and did body comp 9.6% to 16.6% BF so that part is getting better.  It looks like I am back to where I was before Vacation so hopefully now I can shed a few more pounds before SG.  I am running long tomorrow so I wanted to take it easy but the legs have been so crapy this week when they felt a little better I turned it up just a tad.  Took about 3 miles to feel right and then I pushed the TM up to 8.1 MPH and held it there 8 miles in 61:59 plus a .4 cool down in about 4:20.  Hopefully I can hit it long tomorrow and get back on track for next week.

Well I should have ate more.  I took a couple Ibuprofen along with my N.O. Explode before I left.  Started slow and steady picked it up but by 19 I was slowing down.  I wanted to do 31 but lack of food I brought 80 calories worht of fruit leather and dehydradtion (scale said 170 when I got home) set in.  Suzanne was doing a 24  miler with her girl friends along the SLC marathon course and had my fuel belt. So maybe we need to get another.  Probably the dieting isn't the best idea for long runs.  I came home and started hydrating went to coach two soccer games another couple wins 5-1 and 2-0  and then Suzanne and I went to the temple and a much needed date.  I am feeling loads better now.
