10.00	2.00	4.00	0.00	16.00

Up to Little Cottonwood and then back around via Quarry bend and 7th east. 16 miles total. First 8 miles at 7-7:30/mile up with a progression run in the middle starting at 6/min/mile down to 5:36, 5:24, 4:50, 5:22, 5:32, and 5:21 for the final mile home. Some headwind on the last 3 miles going home. Cooldown for two miles after practicing pace sense at MP. 85 degrees.F. Ahh.. pleasant exhaustion and time to hit the the Hi C orange. I way prefer it over Gatorade as it's just easier on the gut and tastes way better!

I think I saw Maureen on Quarry bend coming up the hill but my eyes were so full of sweat I could not tell for sure.

PM-Debated on doing a light jog to help circulation and recovery but got sleepy while listening to my wife play Mozart's Lacrymosa from his requiem mass. Not too bad for sight reading I have to say. I once knew how to play like that, but marathon training is such a cruel master..

I wish it was me - but came home sick from work this afternoon and have been resting up so that I can do the marathon this weekend.

Great mileage, Steve. Are you still thinking of doing TOU?

Never thought of Hi-C as a post race beverage. Do you have to fight your kids over it?

I sneak over to Mickey D's to get it while they are gone.

No! just joking, soemtimes we all go over and get an ice cream cone while I get the Hi-C you know. A cheap family outing of sorts.
