I was just guessing on my loop because my distance meter on my watch went whack when I switched the setting to see what time it was. I used one of my new pairs of shoes. It felt extremely weird because they are feather light compared to my old ones. Now I just need to get into the habit of switching between these 2 new pair.</p><p> 26:45 (7:35 pace)<br /></p> Sat, 16 Jul 2011 06:00:00 Fri, Jul 15, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-07-15-2011.html <p><strong>Sunset Blvd - 5.02mi</strong></p><p>Today was great.

I had some great averages for my laps and I'm very happy with the performance. I didn't allow myself to fall to far behind the varsity boys. I improved my time every lap!!<br />Lap 1: 7:31<br />Lap 2: 7:18<br />Lap 3: 7:12<br /></p><p> 38:00 (7:38 pace) - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8356587" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a><br /></p><hr width="100%" size="2" /><strong>Arctic Circle w/ Weights - 3.00 mi<br /></strong><p>We just did a quick run to Arctic Circle and back real quick before weights. I feel a lot better with weights this year than I did last XC season. I'm not having 1/3 of the trouble with benching like i use to. 2pm, was quite hot!</p><p>23:00 (7:43 pace) - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8356631" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a> </p><hr width="100%" size="2" /><p><strong>Running Center, Walmart, PVHS, Harts, Home (Cycling) - 7.52 mi</strong></p><p><strong></strong>It always feels nice to ride my bike. I love using it as my main transportation, but it suck to how limited i am. I iced my knee just before i left on my ride because it was bugging me, which really helped. After weights and such, me and shakes went to Harts and had some Chocolate Milk.</p><p>*unknown time/pace* - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8356796" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a> <br /></p> Tue, 12 Jul 2011 06:00:00 Mon, Jul 11, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-07-11-2011.html <p><strong>Hell Hole w/ Striders - 7.58mi</strong></p><p>The run started out wonderful. I hit the turn around point and was able to go for about a mile then the cramps started to kick on and off. I died on the hill and had to take a quick breather at the top of the hill and I saw byron right behind me, so i just waited for him to finish with. i was really sore throughout today... A extremely hot shower got rid of most of the aching though</p><p> 63:00 (8:19 pace) - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8330235" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a></p><hr width="100%" size="2" /><p><strong>Running Center - Wells Fargo Mall Drive - 4.80 mi</strong></p><p><strong></strong>Just rode up the Running Center. Talked to Steve about possibly working for him on his website/computers. I ran over to Wells Fargo to make a deposit, grabbed some Arby's then I was on my way home.</p><p>*Unknown Time/Pace* - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8330355" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a> <br /></p><p><br /></p> Mon, 11 Jul 2011 06:00:00 Fri, Jul 08, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-07-08-2011.html <p><strong>Pine View Park Loop - 5.07 mi</strong></p><p>Had to end up calling like 5 people to finally find a ride to practice but I'm glad that I was able to go. It felt really good to keep with Coach and just have fun with jokes and such stuff that made the time go by much faster.</p><p> 38:00 (7:26 pace) - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8265231" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a><br /></p> Fri, 08 Jul 2011 06:00:00 Thu, Jul 07, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-07-07-2011.html <p><strong>Barefoot 12 Laps - 3.81 mi</strong></p><p>Ran with coach and some of the other 'top' boys. It felt a little more towards the annoying side with 12 laps, but I still enjoyed it more than I usually enjoy regular running. Its slowly beginning to get hotter in the morning.</p><p> 34:00 (8:50 pace) - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8265201" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a><br /></p> Thu, 07 Jul 2011 06:00:00 Wed, Jul 06, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-07-06-2011.html <p><strong>Cheveron - Green Springs - 6.00mi</strong></p><p>Today I felt like crap. I'm actually not sure why I do... I woke up drank some water and a glass of milk. I prevented my heel-striking better today. We got pretty slow, but we stopped by the radio station so manuele could break the world record for using the bathroom the longest. That was like 1/3 of our time. My watch died today, so i don't have exact stats</p><p> *watch died, unknown times* (abt 10:00 pace) - <a target="_blank" href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8230746">Detailed Entry</a><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><hr width="100%" size="2" /><p><strong>Del Taco - Hart's - 5.20mi</strong></p><p><strong></strong>I got bored today so I decided to ride my bike to Del Taco and get some food and each with my dad during his break. I love riding my bike around; only if I loved swim-racing - then I could get a sprint triathlon in. Didn't get my ride to Seminary in, so this was a nice replacement.</p><p>abt 16mph pace - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8230816" target="_blank">Detailed Entry</a><br /></p> Wed, 06 Jul 2011 06:00:00 Tue, Jul 05, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-07-05-2011.html <p><strong>Grapevine - 4.97mi</strong> </p><p>Today was pretty fun. I was SUPER tired from last night. Me and Shakes turned around right when our Garmins said 2.5 instead of following coach to however much farther they went. Got a major cramp on the way back. I felt like such a heel-striker </p><p>42:00 (8:28 pace) - <a target="_blank" href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8194947">Detailed Report</a></p><hr width="100%" size="2" /><p><strong>Menchie's - 6.50mi Cycling</strong></p><p>This was super fun. I had a blast going on a bike ride. I think I'll start riding more often. Me and Shakes met Summer at Menchie's and we got some free ice cream. Me and Shakes want to do a 30-mile ride to Hurricane, close to Toquerville</p><p>19mph pace - <a target="_blank" href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8230625">Detailed Report</a> <br /></p><p><br /></p> Tue, 05 Jul 2011 06:00:00 Fri, Jul 01, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-07-01-2011.html <p><strong>Games @ the Park</strong></p> <p>Just played around with my nieces and nephews at the park next to their home. Although I didn't get any run milage in, it felt good to get some exercise.</p> Fri, 01 Jul 2011 06:00:00 Thu, Jun 30, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-06-30-2011.html <p><strong>Barefoot 3 Laps - 3.19 mi</strong></p><p>I ran with the top boys. It always feels cool to keep up there with them. Was pretty well zoned out the entire time while I was thinking about my date today. I'm feeling kinda bad about missing tomorrow after missing most of last week, but I'll be back running on Tuesday. I'll try to get a run in on Monday though.</p><p> 23:00 (07:07 pace) - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8102168" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a></p><hr width="100%" size="2" /><p><strong>Running Club Pacing Mile - 1.01 mi</strong></p><p>I ran with the 5+ boys and girls as a pace to some Running Club returns. I'm pretty impressed with them when we were going 7:30 pace most of the time and picked it up to beat 5 minutes in the last half of the final lap. Its cool to know I can beat 7 minute mile without even trying anymore. My next goal is beating 5.</p><p>06:54 (06:51 pace) - <a href="http://www.dailymile.com/people/bradynp/entries/8102203" target="_blank">Detailed Report</a> <br /></p><p><br /></p> Thu, 30 Jun 2011 06:00:00 Wed, Jun 29, 2011 http://bradynp.fastrunningblog.com/blog-06-29-2011.html <p><strong>Seminary - 4mi</strong></p><p>Just rode my bike to the high school and back for Summer Seminary.

I ran with Makayla and I felt that I didn't stress myself. I also played a GREAT game of football. I really love long distance, I always got myself calm and easy-breathing in about 2 deep breaths.

It sure got me breathing nice a deep. I started to have a slight cramp through-out random times in the run. Striders were cool, but tiring as well. Probably one of my harder days.</p><p> 38:00 (7:36 pace) *Run and Striders both added in time*</p><hr width="100%" size="2" /><p><strong>Seminary - 4mi</strong></p><p>Just rode my bike to Summer Seminary and back.
