Total Distance

10.00

I think the trail race finally caught up to me. My hammy's felt tight this morning and my heels and arch are both hurting on each foot. Maybe it was a bad idea to Sunday sin yesterday. I should have just taken things easy.

This morning I went to the gym at 4:40 and worked on the eliptical for 45 minutes then lifted a tiny bit and worked my core. Then I left and came home to run outside. I wanted to run longer but I just didn't have time. Ran 6.32 avg pace 7:43 sllloooooow. Will I pull of a great time at the Provo river 1/2 on Saturday? I am doubting it with this muscle tightness and lack of higher mileage. Will I try? You betcha.

*pm update ran 2.68 miles up Canyon road in head wind. It was hard. I gave up at 1.25 miles and turned around and ran back down the hill. So tired now. Sleepy sleepy.

Adidas Supernova Glide Miles: 6.32

Wow...why so early? Morning person or schedule constraints?

Thanks Allie! :)

Chatherine both. I am a morning person but my husband also likes to leave to work by 7ish. I guess I can ask him to go in a little later. The sun doesn't seem to be coming up as early as it was. Sure sign that fall is coming.

You're right Allie. I don't know what I say anything above a 7:30 is slow. My husband always get's after me for saying that. I just like to stay consistent with a faster pace more like 7:10's 7:20's.

Sucky about the hammy and foot pain. Stretch, and Ibuprofen! :)

You are going to rock the race on Sat.
