Easy out and back on the Ogden Parkway with 1 loop around the pond with Jon and Matt.

Legs feel ready to roll again. Taking this week mostly easy with maybe 1-2 small workouts.

Stayed out North today to run on my own stomping grounds, it has been way to long.

Met up with Jon at his place and gradually made our way up to the canal rd system. Fantastic morning! Weather was perfect, we saw a confused rabbit who didnt know how to get off the dirt road and ran with us for about a 10th of a mile. Saw about 10 deer. Great way to start the day.

Recovery has gone well, and feeling back to normal. Going to stay around 55-60 miles the next couple of weeks.

Also thinking of doing Phoenix Marathon in February. Probably will decide on that in the next couple of weeks or so.

Back to the grind. Small workout to flush the rest of the garbage out of the legs.

Met up with Matt, Jon and Denver @Smiths.

Decided to do 2X2 mile @ marathon pace.

Workout went well, legs responded nicely and felt some bounce back in them today.

Splits were 5:25;5:33 for first set, second set 5:28; 5:25.

rest was 60 seconds in between sets.

Warmup and cooldown- 5.10 miles with 3X30 second strides

Easy run with Jon, Matt, and Manny.

Did the South Ogden loop today. Legs were on the heavy side today but felt better as the run progressed.

So far no lingering pain from the marathon. Icing and rolling daily I think is helping.
