Does a half hour at the gym shagging balls for my son count for anything?

Didn't get near enough sleep last night. Then to top it off the rainstorm woke me at 4:00. I thought to myself that if it was raining that bad at 5:00 when the alarm went off I would push snooze and skip the run. So dreaming of a skipped run I went back to sleep. Sadly for me when I woke at 5:00 it was pretty clear and wasn't raining at all. So I dragged myself out of bed and proceeded to have a long slow run.

Wow, It is amazing how cool it is in the morning.  I felt like I needed gloves at the start. Hard to believe it is June in Utah. There was actually fog lifting off the river this morning. Speaking of the river it is the highest it has been all year.

Come on everybody sing along with me:

"Hold your head up, aah, hold your head up, aah, hold your head high."

What an interesting run. I started off on my twenty miler thinking about everyone running UVM and the Wahsatch Steeplechase and hoped for their sakes that the weather held. It turned out to be okay where I was until about 9:00.

As I started I turned on the mp3 player and headed out. The problem is the mp3 player did not start. So about twenty minutes in I finally got it going, or thought I did. Then after about a mile and half i started wondering why I was hearing the same song again. It turns out the mp3 player got stuck on a single song loop. Needless to say after about two hours of Argent - Hold Your Head Up, I will not be listening to that song for a while.

Great run with Teena.

I was trying to be the brakes on the little engine that could. Teena is amazing she has so much energy and drive. It makes me realize how far I have to go to actually push myself to get better.

Thanks for the run Teena!

Nice Day.

Learned just how sly mule deer can be today. There was a mule deer standing on the trail watching me until I was about 100 yards from her she then left the trail and I was sure I would see her when I ran past, but she was gone, vanished. I never did see her again.

Had some tightness in my left calf yesterday so started off slowly this morning. The tightness seemed to work out and was able to pick up the pace for the next few miles, however, I slowed at the end of the run.
