Alright. I am back.

Well, I don't really know what has been going on with me the last month or so. Ever since finals week my motivation has been nonexistent, I haven't felt very good, and just all around didn't feel much like running and consequently I haven't done much. But I have a resolution (not a new years one--just a resolution) that I am going to be consistent until I rest after the Ogden Marathon where I am going to shoot for sub-2:45. Then I am going to try to make the USU Cross Country team the following summer/fall. So there it is. I have my goals and so now I will have some motivation and something to shoot for.

Went 5 miles today just easy. Before and during the break my left hamstring felt slightly tweaked so I took it easy today on it, and it felt pretty good. That area of that leg is always the part that gives me problems when I do have problems. I wonder why. Anyway, I felt really good today and the facemask and gloves my parents gave me for my birthday worked wonderfully.

Good to see you back in action. And I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who was sick and lazy. We can get in shape for Ogden together.

i'd like you to know that i have a legit excuse. i just don't want to talk about it.

and i'd love to train for ogden but i can't run it. i'll be on a plane to spain. but i do want to run one some weeks just prior to that (haven't decided which). we could still do some training

yep I'm back at it. I feel quite a bit more motivated now so that is good.

Spain... Mexico... sheesh, quite the travel life!

SLC is a bit before Odgen.
