I would love to qualify for Boston!

Same old Holladay loop.  From my house to great harvest and then back along the diagonal.  Added in the horseshoe loop as well for an extra .20.  My lungs are still hurting me so it was hard to breathe during the run.  Thus a 10:03 pace.

It was too nice of a spring day to not get outside and go for a run.  Despite being fatigued from the last run, I went anyway.  Good old Holladay loop; over to Wren Drive and back along the diagonal to my house.

My usualy Holladay Loop over to great harvest, back along the diagonal and then around the horse shoe for a little extra distance.  I was super slow on this one primarily because I had the double jogging stroller equipped with two four-year-olds.  It was a good workout!

My usual Holladay Loop over to great harvest, back along the diagonal and then around the horse shoe for a little extra distance.  The Salt Lake Marathon was today and I hooked up with the runners on the route at 3900 South.  I ran with them to the turnaround at great harvest and then back along the diagonal until 4500 South.  It was fun to run with them and got me motivated to do a marathon here soon.  I forgot how fun race day is!  Very motivational!

My usual Holladay loop.  However this time I went to the old haunted house, then turned around and came back along the diagonal.  I also added the horseshoe for additional mileage.  My legs were tired today.  My right shin was bugging me as well.  So all in all it was a slower run but what do you do?

Ran a wonky loop today.  From my house through the neighborhoods to avoid all of the construction on 2300 East.  Ran over to Lambourne and back.  Zig-zagged around 3300 south and made my way back home.  Went very slow today.  My right shin has been bugging me so I thought I would take it slow.  I actually enjoyed the slower pace.  Felt like I could go forever and had a small amount of pain in the shin.  All  in all a success!

My typical Holladay loop.  No horse shoe on this one.  My right shin has been hurting me.  The only way I can go for a run is if I do a very slow pace and take some ibuprofen before I go.  It was manageable today.

Switched things up today.  Did a .44 mile loop around the block with the boys which was awesome!  Then I dropped them back off at home and went for a more hilly course by going over to Evergreen, up to 2700 East, over to 3900 South and then back home.  Again super slow pace due to my shin hurting.

My typical Holladay loop.  I went a little further south and turned around just before Wren Road.  I added teh horse shoe for extra mileage as well.  My right shin felt better on this run.  Still a bit of pain but not as bad as it has been the last week.  I think switching back to the Hokas for a little extra cushion has helped!
