I met the group at the church on tithing hill.  I was a minute late and so was Michelle so we ran down tithing hill and ran along the trail.  We didn't see the others so we ran back up the hill to the big hill going north and headed down.  When we got to the bottom we saw the others coming so we turned around and went back up the big hill and then back to the trail.  It was a good run.

I went on a nice little easy 10 mile bike ride.(or so I thought)  I rode from my house to 13th west and then south.  I was whipping right along when a guy passed my like I was standing still.  I was still going at a pretty good clip and thinking this was very easy.  Then I got to redwood and turned north.  The wind was blowing hard the whole rest of the way home and I felt like a was riding up a big hill.  Anyway I made it and was glad I was only going 10.

I ran 1 mile with Duke and then I met the group at the park down the hill from Tithing Hill.  We ran along the trail.  It was a good run.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

I did the Goldilocks Bike ride on Saturday.  We started out at Daybreak and rode west to Herriman High.  Then we went south and rode past Butterfield Park and then out to the Mountain View Corridor.  Then we headed North to the New Bingham Highway.  Then we went east to 4800 west and turnded south and stopped at the first rest stop.  This part was 18 miles and I was already feeling a little tired so I was glad to rest and eat snacks.  Then I took off and we headed east and followed 9800 all the way to 13th west.  On 13th west we went south to Bluffdale, rode past redwood going west to 2200 west and then turned north.  At this point there was a steady hill and I was getting tired and thinking I don't know if I can make 100.  I kept pushing along and we rode south past Camp Williams and past the Lehi Crossroads to a road than turned west.  We followed this road west to a park in Eagle Mountain.  I was very tired and glad to rest and have a snack.  Then we headed west up a large hill, (luckily for every up hill there is a downhill) and then turned north until we got to the road that leads to Cedar Fort.  We past the turn around for the 60 miles and I thought I should at least try to make 80.  The road to Cedar Fort was not too bad.  There were some steady up and down hills.  In Cedar Fort I got to the turn around for the 80 miles and I figured if I got this far I might as well make 100.  I rode about 10 miles past Cedar Fort to a small town called Fairvew.  I stopped to rest and eat snacks.  Then I headed back.  On the way back the wind started to blow like crazy and the ride was very hard.  It seemed like up hill the whole rest of the way.  We ate lunch in a park in Eagle Mountain and then rode back out to Redwood.  The ride north to Camp Williams was very windy and slow.  It felt like I was going up hill the whole way.  When I got to the base of the long hill on the south side of Camp Williams there were a few people walking their bikes up.  I geared down all the way and pushed on.  It was the hardest hill I have ever ridden up.  I was never so happy to get to the top in my life.  Now I only had 12 miles to go.  I rode north to the Porter Rockwell road and then turned west.  There was a slow and steady hill there but not as bad as Camp Williams.  I made it to the top and onto the Mountain View Corridor.  Now there was only 7 miles to go.  I pushed on to DayBreak road.  When I turned east it was downhill and I was so glad.  I made it to the end.  I think this might be my last 100 mile bike.  I am glad I did it.

I only did my 6 mile bike course because I needed to babysit for my youngest daughter at 8:30.  I had fun tending Sicily and Vivian while Bridget took Deklan to his kindergarten testing.

I ran a mile with Duke and then I met the group at Riverton High School.  We ran back and forth and up and down streets surrounding Riverton High.

Christine and I did our Triathlon training.  We swam at Marv Jenson's and then I came home and rode my bike to her house and then we did our 12 mile course.  Then I came home and ran 2 miles with Duke.

I met the group at the church on 102nd and 40th west.  We ran west on 102nd and then turned north on Yorkshire and ran to Sky Drive.  We then went west to 4800 and then turned around and headed back.  It was a good run.

I took Duke on a short walk and then I went to the RUNGR8 run.  I ran the 3 mile course with my grandson Caleb.  We kept a good steady pace.  When he got tired and had to walk I ran ahead and then came back.  We ran it 2 minutes faster than last week.  I think going to a chiropractor has helped my dragging leg a little bit.

I met the group at the church up the street from my house.  We ran through the subdivision.  Then I kept going north on 3200 until I got to 106th.  Then I turned west and ran to America First Credit Union and then turned south and ran to 114th and then east back to the church.  The rest of the group was there and we ran up and down the first street one more time.  It was a good workout.

My daughter and I did the Triathamom Triathlon this morning at the South County Pool.  On the first lap of the swim my ankle timer came off.   I had to stop and search for it. Luckily someone behind me found it and handed it to me.  I tried to put it on but couldn't because I was in deep water so I swam the rest of the race with it in my hand.  I didn't do as well on the swim as I would have liked to but I went fast on my bike.  I caught up with my daughtere and beat her by 10 minutes.  She caught up with me on the run and beat me by 10 minutes.  It was fun and I think I got a lot of exercise.

I rode my bike to work and then rode home after.

Duke and I ran down 114th to the Park by Lifetime fitness to meet the group.  Julie was there and so was Kris.  We ran around the park for a few minutes until the others got there then we ran south and they ran over to the parkway trail and Duke and I headed back up 114th home so I could get ready for work.  Duke really enjoyed the run.  I can't believe that summer is already over.

I took Duke on a very brisk walk down the canal.

Duke and I went on the 3 mile run.  We both enjoyed it.

I ran 1 mile with Duke before work.  After work and a short nap I did a watered down verson of my arm weight exercises.  I only used 2lb weights and did only 2 reps.  I think my back and chest are well enough the each week I can add more weight and reps.

Duke and I went to the group run and went 3.5 miles.  After work and a short nap I did a watered down version of my leg weight/stomach exercises and pushups.  I think in a few weeks my back and chest will be well enough to do a full version.

My daughter from Vernal was here visiting so she and my grand daughter came with me to the RUNGR8 run.  Two of my other daughters met us there.  My daughter from Vernal was a little faster than me but I had more endurance so each time she stopped to walk I caught up.  I beat her at the end by about 20 feet.  My granddaughter ran ahead and then turned around and came back every block.  She could have beaten all of us by a mile.  It was a good run.  Later that day we had our family Halloween Party at my daugher Leslie's house.  It was a lot of fun.  All the kids and grandkids were there.
