Trinity Brewing Company

8.39 Miles 1:13:00 8:42 average per mile
6:00 pm) low 40's windy cold!
Small turnout tonight. The weather was pretty bad. Today was
very windy and a cold front came through and it's cold. Later
in the week looks like a nice warm up. Saturday is going to
be low 70's! I am doing a 5k Saturday so that will be nice
weather for it.

Treadmill

2 Miles 16:15
11:45 am)
Decided to check out the health club at my apartment club house.
They have two treadmills, a few ellipticalls and some weights.
The first treadmill I tried didn't work. So I ran on the older
treadmill. I only went two miles just to try it out. At exactly
two miles the power went out. Good timing I was just going to
hit the stop button.
Working on my 2011 Race Schedule. I will probably add or make
changes to it.
These are for sure though
May 15 Cellcom Green Bay Marathon
June 12 Garden of the Gods 10 Miler
July 17 Barr Trail Mountain Race
August 22 Pikes Peak Marathon
October 2 Bear Chase Trail Run 50K

Manitou Incline & Barr Trail

A Little bit of snow on Pikes Peak

Some of my running shoes I'm currently using. Ordered another pair last night because I'm getting low.

4.61 Miles 54:00
12:15 pm)partly sunny 50's
Second best time on the incline 26:54 only 6 seconds off my best.
I'm happy with the time I have not done the incline in at least
3 weeks and coming off a marathon.

4.11 Miles 32:43 7:58 average per mile
7:00 pm) upper 40's
Full Moon Run. We ran into the Garden of the Gods and back.
After wards had food and snacks. Good run in the dark! They
do this run only once a month. My first time running it.

Bear Creek Park


6 Miles 46:36 7:45 average per mile
4:30 pm) low 50's cloudy
First time I have run here. Not sure what took me so long to
run here. It's only 3.2 miles from my apartment. Good trails
and ran on some nice single track.
Ran in my New Balance 100's. I like these shoes a lot. I like
the fact you can run long runs in them. I have used them for
a trail marathon and a 50k with no problems. They recently
updated the shoe to 101's. I should buy another pair of the
100's before there all gone.

My place to Garden of the Gods & back

10 Miles 1:09:02 6:54 average per mile
1:30 pm) partly sunny 50
This was a hard run! I felt pretty bad for most of it yet I
pushed the pace for some reason. I need to listen to myself
better just last night I said I would take it easy the rest
of the week. My stomach didn't feel great. I don't think I
gave my lunch enough time to digest. Good news is I feel
I'm recovering very fast from the marathon.

Colorado Running Company

6.88 Miles 49:23 7:11 average per mile
6:00 pm) 60's Warm!
Feeling pretty good. Not too sore anymore. Legs still feel
heavy though. I'm really looking forward to building my
mileage up but trying to be smart and let my body recover
first. I think I will hold back the rest of this week and
starting next week start the building process. I have no
goals as far as a number. I usually run no more than 50
miles a week. I want to run more than that since I have no
races upcoming of any signifigance. I would like to get
up to 100 mile week but that will take some time.

Waldo Canyon

7 Miles 1:00:31
3:00 pm) mid 60's Sunny!
Have not run here in a month! Wow how time flyes. I felt
very good other than my quads are still pretty sore. I was
kind of surprised to run my second fastest time here. It
still was 1:25 slower than my best. Beautiful day today
I'm enjoying them while they last.
