Well as you hopefully know my parents came up this weekend. My mom is still here actually having a good old time.
This week my dad and I went on some great runs. The first was on Friday and it was on a trail right next to the road that the St. George Marathon is on. The trail was tough with lots of uphill and downhill sections. I ran at a slow pace because I am still trying to get in shape. it was tough!!! My dad ran like a champ and stayed with me for a little bit and then took off and was never to be seen again. Until I saw him on the side of the trail in the BMW. We ran 13.6 miles on Friday.
We rested on Sunday as we should. My dad wanted to run, but I said "no, we keep the sabbath day holy."
On Monday after my first day of work it was back on the running road again. This time we had Cassie and my mom drop us off on the marathon course or road that the the marathon is ran on. We clocked it in the car so that we would be dropped off 13.2 miles up the road. This day was tough. I really did run at a gingerly pace. My dad ran with me the whole way because it was tough running over 26 miles in 3 days.
We are both hurting after the 2 runs, but we have to get back on the road running to continue to get faster and better.
By the way running is the only form of exercise.

It is Thursday and I am still sore, I ran 7 miles yesterday just to loosen up. Tonight is basketball so I will fight through the pain. David it was a blast running in Saint George with you. Can't wait until next month to do it again. Keep running.
Dad
