Single: It is great training on feel. Yesterday I was planning on an easy 10-miles today. However, after church I had to go into work and before I knew it the time was 4:45pm... So I went home for dinner and did a Liberty Park run afterwards. I went there thinking I was going to do the easy run. However, the weather was perfect (shirtless with no sweat) and once I started moving it felt so easy on the flat ground. This has to be one of the flattest places to run in SLC. I ended up doing just over 4 loops with each loop ~1.5 miles. The first 2-miles I took med-easy (7:01, 6:59). Then I thought it would be fun to negative split each mile, the next 2-miles (6:55, 6:44). Then I just started getting carried away (6:36) for the final mile I decided I wanted to race the cars, (they move very slowly around the park). It was still fun to try and for a portion I dropped it down under 5:15 to pass two of them (5:39). Overall, I felt great afterwards but had to head straight back to work. Big deadline, but I just finished and am heading home now. Mi 6-R1 Avg. 6:39 HR 161
