Today was the first day back to Utah from running in Cali for two weeks at 75 degree weather (Oh how I miss it). It was chilly today (28 degrees) so I bundled up and went for it! Now that I have my running head on from "Bootcamp" in Cali with my sis I acutally found a really good course that had a good stretch before stopping at any stoplights. I did 8 miles and beat my adverage pace of 9min/mile by two seconds. I finished with adverage pace of 8:58 for 8 miles! YaHoO!!!

Today I ran for 6 miles to work up to my 13 mile half marathon goal. Here in Utah it stays pretty dark during the morning time so when faced with a fellow runner or walker the 'ol Good morning doesn't get to many smiles back. In cali people seemed way chipper. Probably because it's not freezing cold and dark during the mornings in California. I feel like shouting "IT'S THE 6TH DAY OF THE YEAR" to people around here!!! Anywho I felt good today ran a 9:05 pace. Pushed my last mile strong. Trying hard to keep my miles under 9!

I DID IT! PR TODAY!!!! My goal is to get into an 8-8:30 min/mile for the Half Marathon! I ran an 8 miler at a 8:39 average pace! Took me 1hr 9min to complete. Cut off my min/mile time by 26 sec! I felt really good today. I ate pasta last night and chocolate right before bed. I know what you must be thinking but I believe it gave me the extra caffine kick to kill it. Also right before my run I had a Zipfizz energy boost. It made me feel great and I feel strong and not too tired after my run! Woot Woot!!
