No running. Drove from Duluth to Lincoln, Nebraska. The highlight was a visit to the Bob Feller museum in Van Meter Iowa. "The Heater from Van Meter".

10.5 miles at Alta Ski Area. Spent a lot of time running back and forth on the road checking on the new kids and 9th graders - making sure they didn't die or get attacked by mooses or coyotes.

Abby made it to the campground and back. 6.6 miles.

Easy run in the gully. I'm feeling pretty beat up. I'm not happy with how slowly I 've bounced back from the race on Saturday. I had almost marathon like soreness for a couple days. Yesterday's Alta run left me pretty wiped out for today also so I'm taking it easy.

Both knees are achy plus the left achilles. I'll stay on level ground and soft surfaces for a while.

Hope to get in a couple quality runs over the weekend but I won't push it.

Swim meet day.

Run? Maybe.

AM: Push-ups, abs, core workout at the pool. Some people looking at me wierd.

PM: 8.25 hot miles around the neighborhood. Just a bread and butter run. Felt better today but I cheated and took a couple Ibuprofins.

I just realize that I seem to finish my runs on the quarter. Lots of my runs end in .25. I actually counted and I have 60 such runs in 2014.
