Scott's Running Blog

Decided to go running while on vacation in St. George.  It had been a quite while since I ran last, and I could sure feel that as I climbed back up the hill to the Pleasant Palms Condo at Sports Village.  (Side note: If you need a place to stay, this is a great place.  Tom & Kim Lee, who blog on this site regularly, rent it out.  See http://pleasantpalms.blogspot.com/ for more information).

With the wbr coming soon, I definitely need to run more.  Finished in 51:13 (9:58 pace). 

Official start for wbr training.  Ran 4.85 miles from my house to the riverbottoms, then east up to 3400 East and back home via Canyon Road and 1700 East.  Finished in 47:21 (9:46 pace)

There was snow on the ground so I ran on the treadmills at work early in the morning.  Ran 3 at a 10:00 pace, 4 at a 9:00 pace and one at a 10:00 pace.  (9:30 pace).  Still getting my legs underneath me.

Ran the typical 5 mile course (East on river bottoms to 3400 East, home via Canyon Road and 1700 East).  Finished in 45:55 (9:28 pace)

Meandered around the river bottoms - Ran to the trails, up to Canyon Park, back down to the trails via PowerHouse Road and eventually wound my way back home.  Finished in 1:39:49 (9:53 pace).  The run felt a little sloppy, but it was nice to get the distance in.
