It was really hard to get myself out of bed this morning to run, but eventually I made it.  The weather was so nice in the Bahamas and it is cold here.  We had a great trip and I actually ran a number of times. Doone came with me on two of my runs. It was nice to run along the beautiful beaches. 

Anyways, I ran 6 miles this morning. 

2 warm up

3 tempo (averaged 7:05)

1 cool down

I will call that my first training run for the Phoenix Marathon. Hopefully I will be able to train injury free for the next 4 months and run a good race in March.

Way to go, Rhett. If I ever go to the Bahamas, I don't think I would ever come back.

I'm trying to talk my wife into running the Phoenix Marathon with BeMo, but she doesn't want to go without me....I don't want to drive that far only for a weekend trip and we can't afford for all of us to fly down. There is a direct flight from Ogden to Mesa for $69.00 each way. Hopefully she'll go for it and have a good time.
