A.M. - This was basically my bread-and-butter 12-mile course (Little Cottonwood Rd/Wasatch Dr.; normal direction for the triangle) with some extra miles toward the end. Rather than turning south at 9800 South and Roseboro Dr, I stayed on 9800 South going west all the way until it wrapped into Sego Lily Dr. Then it was about two miles of some good climbing to the top of Sego Lily. Then north to Karalee Dr. and back down (west) and then had to wind around the neighborhood a bit to get the last mile. I've never run this variation before, but I liked it, especially the long 9800 South part.
This morning's schedule was a little weird. I slept in until about 8. Lindsay hadn't got back from the gym yet. So I worked for a couple hours (gotta love the life of an accountant in February) and finally got out for the run about 11. I hadn't eaten anything except for a GU. I felt good and had a good run by my standards. Its probably thanks to the easy run yesterday. Average 6:18 ave/mi, only had one mile at more than 7-min pace (mile 3, uphill), and had 4 sub-sixers (5:52 ,5:49, 5:38, 5:30 for miles 6, 9, 10, and 11, respectively; all mostly downhill).
While I was out, I saw Carol Steppan from the ward out running. Also got a high-five from my buddy Will McKnight from out of his car window. |
