AM-Long run up Little Cottonwood canyon and back home. Went pretty smooth especially since the temp this morning was relatively cool with a breeze. Dropped off some Gatorade before and measured my miles in the truck. Good pacing and drinking frequently gave me better results unlike past runs. 8-8:30/min pace going up the steep grade with the last 10 miles hitting as fast as sub 5/min pace on downhill sections to 6/min pace on the last 3 miles coming home. Felt good not having to battle the heat for once:) 22 miles total in the bank. PM-Easy 6 miles jogging on 7th east this afternoon while the family had lunch. Definitely felt this mornings run in the legs all though not sore. Warmer but still a relatively nice temp at 74 degrees if the thermometer was accurate. Over a hundred miles this week. Have'nt done that in quite some time and I'm not feeling to tired either which is definitely a plus.
