| I went out early 5:30am on the Jordan River Trail. I got to test out my new Petzel head lamp. I discovered I need something better to cover the bottom half of my face, due to it being in the teens. The run was an okay pace (8:15). I am still recovering from a SI joint injury from the last couple of months. Will take some time to get my weight and speed back down. Really enjoyed the early morning solitude. |

| This morning 5:30 am, I decided to give my five finger KSO's my first long run, ever, on pavement. As it turns out, probably not a good mileage to start with. I also used the socks with them. I went north on the Jordan River trail to the turnaround, and about a half mile before the turn around I noticed, what first felt like the socks bunching up, but I soon realized it was a nice blister forming on the balls of both my feet right behind my toes. Ended up still running back and got 4 very nice blisters which will take a few days to recover before I can run again. Ended up with 8:17 pace.

| Did hill work at the Orem water tank hill. Ran up and down the hill 3 times. The blisters form earlier in the week are still bothering me, so I ended up moleskinning them and then putting duct tape over that which made the running bearable. Was a good work out. I plan on adding one trip up the hill each week for awhile and see how that goes. 900+ feet ascent and 900+ feet descent in 3 miles. Still not feeling comfortable going fast down the hill, finding myself slowing myself down, which puts extra stress on my heels, hips etc.

| Slept in until 7, but woke up more tired than I have been feeling getting up at 5. My feet are still a little sore, so I moleskined and duct taped them up before I went out around 9. I decided to run north on the Jordan River parkway until the turn around, then head back south until Willow Park, which I figured would be around 12 miles. I ended up just having to run to the underpass under main street. This was my first, time running and actually trying to maintain a certain heart rate, mostly due to the fact I spent 2 minutes looking at the garmin manual and figured out how to get the microscopic heart rate into one of the larger fields so I could actually see it while I ran. I tried to maintain a 160 bpm pace over the 12 miles, which I ended up averaging 162 over the 12, with an average speed of 8 min pace, which was a bit faster than my earlier runs this week, but still far slower than what I was doing before the hip injury. Very exhausted pushing to 12 for the frist time since October 3rd, when my IT band and back/hip issues really started up. Well, so far, no IT band problems, which I'm pretty sure were caused by my Si joint and back being out of alignment. |
