| AM- Mile warmup, 4x400m w/1 minute recovery. The paces on this were very easy strides at a slower pace. 82,84,83,78. Cooldown 2 miles afterward. This was mostly just to loosen the legs up. Haven't gone fast like this for about a month, so it felt good to get the legs moving somewhat.

Rock n Roll Marathon (26.2 Miles) 03:01:23, Place overall: 23, Place in age division: 4 | | Easy Miles | Marathon Pace Miles | Threshold Miles | VO2 Max Miles | Total Distance | | 1.00 | 26.20 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 27.20 |
| RACE- I haven't really officially mentioned much about me doing this marathon. It was sort of a last minute thing, but I knew that I was in really good shape during this time after running the haunted half just about a month ago. Arrived in Las Vegas on Friday and just kinda did a little bit of tourist stuff. The race started at 4:30, and there were a total of about 40,000 runners in the entire Rock n Roll Marathon Series. This being true, I got down to the starting line and in my corral quite some time earlier than the start of the race. I have never seen so many runners at a race in all my life. Anyway gun goes off and we are off. I wanted to hold right around 6:50s from the start and try to stay in a fat burning state, so that I will not lose glycogen stores near as quickly as I did in Ogden. Came through the half in 1:29:38. I was feeling really good and felt like I was just jogging along. Took a honey gel at around mile 14 and was still feeling great. Once I hit mile 20, I knew that how well I ran from then till the finish would determine if I have a good race. I took another gel at mile 22 and got to work for a good finish. Felt a little weird at mile 24 but finally broke through that rough patch and pushed through the finish in 3:01:23! Really happy with this effort and overall felt much better during and after this marathon than at Ogden earlier this spring. Finally got that Boston qualifier too. I will have to wait and go in 2019 but can't wait to go!!

| Off today. Not very sore, but have some hip pain. These next couple of weeks will be some off time from running and doing a full training schedule. I will probably do some biking and a little running here and there but no 60-70 mile weeks. I am really glad that I was able to run the Las Vegas Rock n Roll Marathon, instead of the Phoenix Rock n Roll because training for a marathon in Utah during January is not ideal.

| AM- 10.5 easy 7:28 average. Legs were not very tired, but once I got about halfway my hip started to hurt like it did from the marathon. I guess I am not fully recovered from it, but I still had the urged to run today For the next week I will keep the runs shorter for the most part because it is off season from important races.

PM- 3 miles at faster pace. Didn't start my watch, but it felt pretty quick. Warm day today, I will take 60 degree weather in November anyday of the week.

| AM- 6 miles easy plus 200m strides. Did this run at the park mostly on grass, and even though there was frost on the ground it was still nice to run on a softer surface for a change.
PM- 4 miles with the first 3 miles being up tempo. 6:36 average pace. I feel kinda slow right now and really no spring or bounce in the legs. Probably from Las Vegas Marathon.
