11.25 miles in 1:25. I'm working on running at faster than 8 minute pace on some of my runs. Crazy, I know.

I wore shorts.

Great news! I signed a contract today with my new sponsor, The Blue Plate Diner, in Salt Lake. They will give me a half price omelette and cup of coffee every time I complete a race if I bring ten other runners in with me. I'm excited to have my achievements recognized in this way.

Seven easy miles at the Oval. Followed it up with a good core workout, some push-ups, and lunges.

Taking Andy to his first Cub Scout meeting tonight. He wants to be a Cub Scout.

Ahhh, a three day weekend!

I'll be spending it shuttling between the track meet at BYU on Saturday, and Abby's three day long swim meet where I have to work as a timer.

PM: 12 treadmill miles.

60 minutes of H-Fartlek. Started the hard efforts about 2 miles in.

Jay Johnson's Core H routine, lunges, push-ups.

A special shout out to one of my favorite runners, Blake Bennion, for his excellent triple at the BYU indoor meet today. I will extend to Blake my highest compliment, he's a runner!
