| A little trail run up in the Wasatch. Started at Upper Big Water trailhead in Millcreek Canyon, went up to Red Lover's Ridge, down to Desolation Lake, down to Blunder Fork and up to Dog lake, then into the Mt. Olympus wilderness. That part of the trail was way overgrown. I had to push thru brush that was waist high. Needless to say, that slowed me down. Eventually made my way up and over the saddle and down to the Terraces area. Went on out to Millcreek road and up the road back to UpperBig Water. Totl time was around 7 hours. | | Add Comment |

Did a lunchtime run. Kinda warm, but I survived. Did my new speedwork thing. 8 x 40 seconds flat out, with 10 seconds rest in between. It's hard not to cheat on the rest time by the time you get to the third or fourth one. I think I'm going to bump this up to twice a week and see how it goes.
Went running after work, but the legs were dead. Ended up only going about 2.5 miles. | | Comments(3) |

| Did a trail run after work. Kinda slow, the legs were still tired for last Sunday's mountain run. Wasn't quite as warm as yesterday. Went a little earlier and managed to avoid most of the mountain bikes. | | Add Comment |

Did a run at lunch. Pretty windy. Did an 8 x 20 second speed session again, 10 seconds rest in between. The legs were kind of dead. I thought that taking a day off yesterday would help, but I still felt pretty sluggish.
Was going to do a trail run after work but ith all the smoke, haze, dust and wind, I just did the t-mill for a few miles. | | Add Comment |

Ran to work for the first time in a couple weeks. Nice and cool, actually wore a long sleeve shirt.
On the run home I had to detour to go to the bank, but I made up for the extra mileage by taking a small short cut on the run home from the train station. Kinda like leaving work early because you came in late.
Looking forward to my Sunday run. Going places I haven't been before. | | Add Comment |
