4:20 Am  is when the call of the wild begins my day for β€œTin man Tuesday.”  Met up with The Band of brothers,   James and Dave.   Also Clyde, Logan, Steve, And Dustin.  James, Dave and Clyde seemed a little quiet!  I guess what happens at high altitude training stays at high Altitude training. Only the Mountains and the tall timbers will someday reveal their secrets?    

I miss my friend Big foot who was at least is in sight during this run.    We started out with an easy 3 mile warm up.   Then off we start into the darkness like wolves looking for rabbits.   1. 6:45   2. 7:02    3. 6:47    4. 7:08   5.  6:55   6. 6:50  7. 6:44  8. 6:46.   Avg  6:52

 up at 4:20 AM   and then headed over to pick up Cody, then off to meet Dustin.  We planned on at least 17.  We drove up to the  road to Kolob. "Where woman moan and men thunder!"  started out slow  and  all was calm as we  ran down  a fairly steep grade.   Then lighting began crashing down  all around us,  and  it seemed that the very pillers of heaven were shaking.  Heavy drops of water mixed with hail hit us with the force of a scatter gun.  We witnessed the birth of fire from a single bolt of lightening. When we finally got to the bottom of the  mountain with about 8 miles left  i picked up the. However, Buddah was not going to leave me alone  and stayed close like a wolve waiting for signs of weakness.  Buddah cought me at the Top of the laverkin  twist and with a slight grin sarted shadowing my every move.  5:40 Pace, 5:27 pace.  He went wide right of me and pulled away.  By the time we reached the bottom (2 miles down)  Had gained at least 30 seconds on me.  It was a fun run.

3 easy am miles. then off to the club run!    woo hoo   met up with Steve, james, Dave, Clyde, Dustin and Logan. They were all there in spirit!  We started out with 2 easy miles, then i suggested we pick it up a bit!  Clyde took us out at 6:30 pace for the next 2 miles.  Then i turned to steve and told him lets see what clyde has under the hood. so we picked it up to 6:00 pace. Then Dave  started to swing his arms and found another gear 5:40 pace. Clyde began to wheeze terribly! and Steve and james  were slowley fading.  Logan must of passed out at mile 8. Dustin must of fell in the river.  But in the end Dave held on and thus a another club run in the Books.  this run will go down in the book of fairy tales!  The miles are accurate and the rest is for others to debate for a life time.

Nice 20 miles.  Met up at the church at 4:30  and  Mike, Tom, Dustin and Steve  started off.  Mike took off and never looked back.   Tom and i managed to hang with each other  for about 8 miles.  Lost the water drop off  and go dehydraed.  We had a Head Wind all the way.    Glad this week is over pretty tired and i am falling asleep as i write.  Mike is ready for sub 3.    Tom will be ready he is a very talanted runner. 

Mike was going so fast. I felt like i was straped on a leash in mikes hands and my little legs were going as fast as they could to keep up with him. Then after 8  he dragged me for 12 miles!

met up for tempo Tuesday   with the Circle of trust and   Tom  and Steve.  The workout called for 3-2-1 at MP with 2:00 min. recovery.  3 mile warm up.  then bam.   Tom took off like a Bullet and it took me 3 miles to catch him!   This work out we  ran 3 miles.   then jogged 2 minutes  then ran 2 miles  then another 2 minute jog.   then finished out  the tempo.  seems the 2 min breaks did not help much.  avg 6:36.
