Late morning run before the BYU vs.Utah game.  I went out on the canal trail to the south of Willard and back.  It took a while to get going and warmed up but once I did the achilles wasn't too much of an issue today, but I could still feel it on the steep uphill portions.  I took it easy and was just glad to get out today. 

Watched the game after the run and stretched out good.  I thought BYU was going to blow it again, but they got lucky on 4th and 18.

James, you crack me up, it is always BS day. The BYU and Utah game, too bad they both could not get better bowl games, something different than the 5th place PAC 10 team for the Vegas Bowl. Thanks for the Happy Birthday, you think like me, the real way to get faster and stronger is hills, speed work in disguise.

Luck nothing! It was an act of Providence. If God's not a Cougar fan then why is the sky so blue?

Keep babying that achilles!

Get that achilles better - watch the hills while it is still healing up. Then hammer them all winter.

I'm back, as of yesterday. It was the first time I slept in my own bed since Oct 23. Too long.
