Did two runs this morning. First run was 10.15 miles and energy level was pretty low, ending at about a 10 minute pace. Came home for a drink and then took Ben out for a 2.27 mile run. I told him to go slow because my run had deteriorated to a 10 minute pace. But, he took off and we averaged an 8:41 pace. He got stomach cramps that slowed him down in mile 2. I slowed down too, but then we picked up speed at the end and he beat me by a couple of seconds. He is now in the Teacher's quorum and they are planning to run the Provo City Marathon on May 4. That means he has a reason to run with me occasionally. I haven't decided whether or not to run with them because the Provo City Marathon is sooner and harder than the Utah Valley Marathon.
