I am back!  I have ran a couple of times since I've been back from my mission, but haven't had time to blog them.  I am taking it easy, because I went up to XC camp with the high school team to help out and I ran 8 miles with the freshman...given that I had been home just over a week you can see why my foot was hurting the rest of the week.  But this run was good.  I ran uphill (luckily not both ways haha) for the whole first .7 miles.  I didn't have my watch because it's being stupid so I had to guesstimate.  And obviously it seems like you've gone a lot farther when you are going uphill haha!  I am thinking about doing a half this year, but we will see.  Right now I am just focusing on getting back into short-mileage shape.  I was breathing a little heavy due to the higher altitude, but not as bad as last time.  I hurt my back a bit running downhill and had to stop.  Don't know exactly what happened...must of just tweeked my body funny!  Hopefully it goes away because it was pretty painful. I need to figure out what workouts I'm gonna do to prepare myself for a half marathon.  Any suggestions?

Still trying to figure out the best time to go for a run.  My schedule has been all over the place so I probably should just wake up earlier to go run.  Went running around 8 a.m. this morning.It was a good run.  I felt really good and my form for most of the way was pretty good! I felt like my posture was really good and I drove my knees a bit (not a ton because I wasn't going that fast). I just need to work on my turnover rate so my feet aren't so long on the ground.  Was planning on going 2 miles but I went a little past the one-mile mark to turn around.  Overall a good run!
