Beautiful sunny morning here in Oregon. My wife and I did some yard work for an hour or so. I then ran from our house to Baker Creek and back. AP=8:58. It was breezy and warm and felt like spring is on the way!

On the way back I heard 3 gunshots that were pretty close by. I didn't know if I should hit the ground and take cover from a psycho sniper or if Mr Farmer (his last name really is Farmer) was just out shooting at the skunks again. I survived so it was most likely the latter.

Ran the Turkey Trot 8k route (two loops plus a little extra starting at the church instead of the chamber of commerce). Avg Pace=9:34. Started at about 1030pm after a long busy day. It felt great to have some quiet time to relax and ponder. I found out that sucking on peppermint hard candy during the last few miles is just as pleasant and effective as sucking on jolly ranchers.

Cross Training at Aquatic Center during lunch. 40 min total. Elliptical-10, Bike-15, Rower-15.

Had the whole place to myself for the first half hour, then the hordes of kids from the community college showed up. Overall it was a great workout!

Ran at JD Park during my lunch. Mix of sun and clouds, windy and chilly.

My legs felt tired the whole time. Maybe because it has been a long time since I ran on trails/barkdust. Despite the tired legs it was a nice run and I feel ready and raring to tackle the rest of my day!

Cross Training today at the Aquatic Center. 40 Min Total. Bike 15, Elliptical 10, Rower 15. Also lifted weights: Chest and shoulders and abs.

Didn't push myself as hard as Tuesday but still got a good workout.

Last night we took the youth to the temple to do baptisms for the dead. The counselor in the Bishopric who did the baptisms is a triathlete and is in great shape...except as I watched him I realized that his arms looked soft and round instead of strong and chiseled. It really drove home to me the need to incorporate weight training into my fitness goals. Not so much because of the way it makes me look but the way it makes me feel. Chiseled and strong feels much better than soft and round. I felt kind of bad having this insight at the temple. You would think I could have had something much more spiritual come to me. Oh well.

Beautiful sunny, cool weather. Nice 3 Miler at JD Park.

Only saw one dog off leash. It came close and sniffed my legs. I had my pepper spray ready to go but didn't need it. I sure wish people would obey the law and keep their dogs on leash.
