Great start to the day. Details to follow. City Creek workout, 13.11 miles. Avg. 7:30 on the dot. Only 19 miles until I'm around the equator. So tempted to do it all tomorrow but I think I will refrain...
So here are the details. Got into lab at 6am and immediately found out that something I've been trying to get to work for the last 6 wk actually worked. Two hours later after I had everything situated I headed out the door. My initial plan was to test a workout tomorrow and do 8 mi today but between the nice cool weather and the excited of the experiment working I opted to do the workout this morning. 2 mi warm up and then the FireHouse Mile. It was 5:17.7, which is a 5:41 flat equivalent by the Course Tool. I then did a ~3 mi recovery up City Creek. Even with the chill in the air and some snow falling there were a good number of people out. One lady even gave me a high five heading up the canyon. I guess I looked like I was going faster than I actually was. At the watershed sign I stopped to strip down some of the extra clothes and then did the new City Creek 5K (now on Course Tool). It continues past the City Creek gate a little into Memory Grove (had to get the extra 0.11 mi)... I ran a 17:08 which is about an 18:12 flat equivalent by the Course Tool. The miles went 5:34.9, 5:30.5, and 5:28.7 with the final 0.11 mi at 0:34. The rest of the day was hectic but good. Then a small get together at church for Halloween...
