Personal:

Married with two children, one in high school, one in college, one in grad school on her own out in the real world.  My lovely and gracious wife is a professional body builder (100% natural).  If I trained half as hard as she does, I really would be fast.  I make my living as a self employed geophysicist.

from the house down to bill's with a short detour.  Ran into Alana and Gama at SRL and ran a few miles with them.  The company helped a lot.

started at Teton Running, down Sunnyside to Bill's, across Broadway bridge back down the east side of the river to Sunnyside and back to the car.  Very cold out 9 degrees.  A bit under dressed.  Started getting cold at about the halfway point.  Very cold by the time I got back to the car.

8 very very slow miles at the gym.  It was hideous.  Maybe I need a day off?

Motel treadmill.  Stopped at 4 mi. when another fella peeked in looking to see if the tm was occupied.  Seemed like a good excuse to cut it short before heading out for a day of field work.  Very hot in the room just of the pool.

10  miles with Curt this morning through SRL and the Green Belt.  Felt like a a pretty good pace.  Worked a bit against the wind that was already picking up.  Glad I got the run early before it gets too bad.  Good company made it a good run.

First week ever of 70 miles and everything is feeling good.

I got the opportunity to run with an accomplished ultra runner this morning.  She had both good news and bad.

The good news is she thought my plan for mileage, long runs etc was "spot on" and I was well on my way.

The bad news is I have to get to work on a plan for and practice fueling.  She was quite clear that is the weak link in my training and it will need to be fixed.

Out and back from the house across Johns Hole bridge. Nice morning.  A little windy but much better than the last few outings.  Crossed paths with Alana and Gama.  Seeing them out alot lately.  Ran a couple of miles with Marlin.  Ran with another friend for a mile or two at about mile15/16. Really helps to have some company.

Ran with the new vest today for hydration.  I liked it more than I thought a would.  It makes staying on top of fluids much easier.

On the strong encouragement from friends I tried to work on fueling.  Took several gu's and managed to down most of them.  Fueling is going to be a real challenge.
