Run until I die. Personal: I love to run. Most days, it is the difference between a good day and a great day. And on those days that aren't so good, a nice long run helps me to relax and remember what is important to me.
I'm an attorney, but frankly, I don't like most lawyers. I don't care about money or social status. Fortunately, I found my dream job as a prosecutor. As such, I spend most of my time in court trying to achieve a resolution that will have the best impact on our community.
I've been married to my best friend, Jennifer, since 2003. I like to think she has made a decent man out of the boy she married. We have 3 amazing children. They are the joy of my life. |

| I intended to run easy, but I think I may have run a little too hard considering this was supposed to be a recovery run. I headed up City Creek and turned around at 2.5 miles. It was a nice day, but it is definitely starting to warm up.

| I ran the same route that I ran on Monday. My legs were tight because this was the first time in several months that I had run 3 days in a row. I took a few minutes longer over this hilly route, but I was happy to be running at lunch instead of early or late.

| I didn't run today, but it was certainly not a rest day. I got up early and climbed to the top of Pfeifferhorn. I went with my neighbor Rich. We got to the summit in 3 hours. It took 2 hours to get back to the parking lot at the White Pine Trailhead. There is close to 4,000 feet of climbing in 4-1/2 miles of hiking to the summit. I could have gone a little faster, but it was nice to finish without feeling totally gassed or injured. It was a good test to see how good my endurance is when climbing. Hopefully, I'll be in shape to run over that type of terrain in the next month.

| I ran in the morning to beat the afternoon heat, but I was surprised at the pace I was able to maintain. My legs felt pretty relaxed after the hike yesterday. I finished my run under an hour despite a consistent wind and a couple of hills. I ran around the neighborhood including a loop around the island and the lake. I am excited to have met my goal for the week, and I am even more excited to hit 30 miles next week. I hope to steadily increase my mileage until I am averaging 50-60 miles per week.

| Rest Day. I managed to sustain a serious bruise to my left knee cap while flating the Weber River. You're not supposed to get injured on your day off.

| I iced my knee and kept it elevated through the night. With the help of some Ibuprofen, I was able to run at lunch today. My knee held up okay and I ran pretty quickly. Overall, it was a decent start to the week. It is starting to get hot by lunchtime; I need to bring some kind of handheld hydration device.

| I ran up through City Creek to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. I followed the trail up into the Avenues where the trail connects to Terrace Hills Dr. THen I meandered through the cemetery and ran along South Temple. I can still feel the bruise on my knee cap and it's a little stiff, but it didn't slow me down as much today as it did on Monday and Tuesday. Hopefully, with a little rest tomorrow, I will be back to normal on Friday.
