hey matt -- it's been awhile! looks like you are battling an injury right now? sorry to hear. do you have a diagnosis? hope you can get back to running soon, but in the meantime enjoy the elliptical -- a great way to keep in shape while you're out.

From Jon on Wed, Feb 15, 2012 at 21:23:11 from 74.177.120.222

Glad to hear you have a job again.

Hill mile Challenge.  Just as small group.  This is more a race with yours self.  You predict a time the person with the slowest time starts first.  The person with the fastest perdiction starts last.  The person that crosses the finish line first wins. I perdicted a 6:00 with my conditioning I felt was realistic.  About 2.5 laps of 4 I was on a 5:40 pace.  I need to work on my conditioning.  I finished in 6:01.  I warmed up and cool down, then went back to work.  A nice benifit of working at Hill is I get 3 hours of (paid) personal fitness time a week.  Its nice.  My feet are starting the feel ok about running again.  I am trying to add miles back slowly.

4.5 miles.  I was planning on running 12 miles then I got to about 3 miles and there was a small 5K race.  I decide to run the race.  I run back home and let my wife know.  I get to the race and sign up, I then step to a jug of what I think is a sports drink and take one swallow.  I know it is not a sports drink.  It takes me a few minutes to try to determine what is in the drink.  It has orange juice in it.  I am allergic to oranges.  I demand my money back and go home.

Today I wasn't sure what to expect.  My training has been OK but I wasn't feeling very fast.   Since last year, that I ran one of the best races of my life.  A lot of things have happened.  I had to deal with an injury.  Started a new Job OK 3 new jobs.  Two of the jobs were short term jobs.  I have moved from Brigham City to Clinton Utah.  I was hoping to use this race ase a yard stick race.  I didn't messure up very well.

I started out by getting up at 3:00 am and driving to Logan.  I didn't feel that great driving or riding the bus up.  I use the port a potties then relax a little.  I warm up by running a mile.  The mile felt hard.  I find the hiden port a potties and then go to the starting line. 

Running down the canyon the pace felt hard, I might of started a little to fast.  I was not able t run fast during the part with the tail wind.  On Hollow road my legs when to jello I am almost ashamed how slow the last 4 miles were.  When I finished I couldn't hardly breath.  I had the wirst cough.  It hurt my chest when I coughed.  I couldn't stop, I sounded like a smoker.

After I recovered I went back out and ran my wife and three sister in laws in.  I ran the last mile to half mile 4 times.

2 min slower than last year isn't much, especially given all the stress you've had the past year. You should be proud.

Thanks, Mark Dale and Jon

Hopefully the stress will go down. I Like my new home, and job. I have been training OK. I know I have not been recording it on the blog. I do miss my old training courses. Last year I was lucky enough to find a good running partner. Having a running partner that could push me really helped. Hopifully Training can go well the next few weeks, so I can be ready for St George.

1.0 miles or 1600m in 5:38.

Today I ran what at work is called the mile challange.  Its a small group of people at work that get together the last thursday of each month.  We all perdict a time.  If one person perdicts a 7:00 mile and someone else a 8:00.  The person declaring the 8:00 starts a minute before the person that perdicts a 7:00.  The first person to cross the finishline wins.  I perdicted a 5:40 which I though was a huge stretch goal after running the top of utah half on saturday then running over 30 miles this week already.  Today, when I got to the track I found out three people had perdicked a 5:40.   We where the last three runners to start.  The first lap I was behind the other two runners, but the pace was way to fast.  At the end of the second lap I over take the other two and then run trying to catch the other runners a head of us.  My pace dropped off a little but I felt stronger then I figured I would.  I ended up coming in 2 seconds ahead of my perdiction and three seconds behind the winner.

I was planning on running with Kam and AnglieB, when I woke up and 4:00am to a loud thunder right outside my house.  I continue to hear and see lightning and thunder.  I end up chichening out and call Kam and tell him that I am not coming.  At about 6:00 I was a wake It was still raining but no thunder and lightning.  I decide to go running anyway and call Kam and Tell him I was coming.  I drive over to huntsville.  I am so glad I went.  The conditions couldn't of been better.  We started out and I was pushing the pace a little.  I wanted to take advantage of the down hill to get some marathon pace miles in.  When the course leveled out I was having trouble keeping the pace up and Kam and AnglieB gapped me.  The last few miles was around Huntsville park and back to the car.  I think this is one of the fastest 22 miles runs I have ever run.  Thanks to Kam and AnglieB for allowing me to come along.

AngieB, I wasn't trying to race you I know better than that. Pushing the pace was not really the right way of saying it. The better way to say it is watched the pace and made sure it was between 6:40 and 6:50 miles.

Jake, Thanks It was nice to meet you on saturday.

This is my slowest St George I have ever run.  I have no excesses.  The weather was great.  I came into the race knowing my conditioning was not what it was last year.  Giving my conditioning best case perfect race was sub 3.  I ran the first half in 1:30:30 and felt I could negative split the second half.  I had trouble really running well down the hills.  I hit the 20 mile mark at 2:18:30 a 6:54 average.  I tried to run fast in the 21st and 22st mile by I was still missing the upper end speed.  At mile 24 I hit the wall, mile 25 was a 8:30 mile.  I sprinted into the finish to just come before the 3:05 pacers.

Thanks everyone.

Steve, I have not run many races this year and I have moved from Brigham City to Clinton so you won't be seeing me run up the canyon. I will be racing more next year.

AngieB, I believe if you don't get in do to the lottery you might be able to get a comp entry. Seems how you are the Huntsville marathon winner. I think you could go sub 2:50 at St George. So I hope we can still be together in the end. I have registered for the Utah GrandSlam so I know I will get into St George next year.

From Kelli on Thu, Oct 11, 2012 at 07:16:04 from 67.172.235.55

From Mattrow on Fri, Oct 12, 2012 at 07:49:26 from 132.3.57.68

Kelli,

Yes I am another crazy runner, doing the Grand Slam. The reason I am doing it is, one of the best years I have had is when I ran Ogden, Utah Valley and St George in one year.

AngieB,

I would love to get together for some long runs. The run with you and Kam was the only run this year I had someone I could run with. It will be nice to have someone to run with. It would be nice to have a group to run with.

From Kelli on Fri, Oct 12, 2012 at 10:40:46 from 67.172.235.55

Hill 5K that was a little short but I ran a PR on.  Race started cross the street from the Warrior.  I got off work and got changed and pretty much went strait to the starting line.  At the starting line they anounced the first place man and woman would get a turkey, no other awards were given.  The race started and one guy went to the front, then another when passed my and the two ran side by side for the first 3/4 of a mile.  I was about 50 feet behind the runners.  At about a mile into the race I passed the second place runner.  As I was coming around the pond I started catching the first place runner.  With about a mile to go I catch the first place runner and pass him for a short time.  With about 3/4 of a mile to go I go into first place and hold it for the next quarter of a mile.  I so wanted to win this race.  With about a half mile to go he passes me back and I am not able to match his kick.  He ends up beating me by about 10 seconds.  I need to work on my kick, I should of won this race.

Nice job Matt. The kick is almost entirely mental. No matter how much it hurts you just have to convince yourself that you WILL sprint as fast as you can the last tenth or two.

The first time is really hard to do it, physically your body just wants no part of it. But once you do it, it becomes easier. Try finishing a few easy runs with an all out sprint at the end to get a feel for it.

From Mattrow on Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 12:33:27 from 132.3.57.68

Riley,

Sounds like a good idea. I will have to and the sprint at the end of easy runs. I have been trying to add speed work the last few weeks, because it feels like I have no leg turnover, or upper gear.

Way to stick it out on the mill!

the dreadmill is not fun but running in a white out isn't either.

Ran for 1:20:00 around a  track that was 10 lap per mile.  Every few minutes I would time 5 laps and they were always between 3:30 and 3:45 minutes. I am not sure which is mentally harder running on a small track or a treadmill.  I might of run farther than 10 miles but there was no way I could keep track of 100 laps.

80 minutes running around a 10 lap per mile track.  The track is indoor so that is nice but the many turns is hard on you.

12.6 miles in 1:47:07 a 8:30 average.   Ran on base while my wife was in a zomba class.  I ran to the golf course road the ran up it 4 times.  The road is a mile long and a pretty good hill.

This was a mixed workout.  I started out by running 11:20 on a small track then spent 1:06:00 on an elliptical and treadmill.  The ran another 10 minutes on the track.  I then did 150 situps.
